question about gas

I used to have a TON of gas... and yes, the wall paper peeling kind. It was pretty terrible and embarassing. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif" border="0"> When I started *religiously* taking my enzymes, I barely have it at all now. So the fix for you might be changing your enzymes in some way - maybe a slight increase? Ask your doc or nutritionist.

As for a cure in the meantime, I've read online that charcoal tablets can make the gas less wall paper peeling-ey, but I haven't tried them myself. Has anyone here had charcoal tabs before?
