gas problems vegetarian

It could be that. But I also think I may have a parasite but it doesn't explain the pain. The only parasite that matches the other symptoms I'm having is pinworm. I'm going to see a doctor this week. I've also got 'hairy tongue'. I became a vegetarian about two months ago. Maybe a lot of my problems are because I'm not doing it right to get all the nutrients I need.

More than likely you probably just ate something that (obviously) did not agree with your digestive system. Try some Gas-X to help with the gas and bloating... I am lactose intolerant and it has helped me out before. I am not sure about going to see a doctor... unless this problem has persisted since four days ago. If it just started give it 24-hours to run its course.

Welcome to the IBS community! I would recommend you see a doctor about this. Are you having any problems with your stool being too hard or large?

i am a vegetarian and im wondering if anyone out there can give me some good recipe ideas for when i do eventually get pregnant? im not vegan but i do struggle to eat well. any ideas?

ve been sufferng from horrible abdominal and stomach pain. sometimes I get very nauseous and have alot of traped gas in my stomach and intestines, I have so much gas that I can hear it moving around and when I tap my stomach it sounds hollow. My doctor said I had IBS because of my severe consipation (I could go 2 weeks without a bowel movement). I started taking 2 colace pills a day and I've seem to be able to go regularly. I'm also on losec for acid reflux.

I have also been strict vegetarian for 11 years. Also, I had zero milk products, strict vegetarian, and zero gluten for 2 months. If yoru problems are not severe enough that you don't want to try a lactose free diet, then that is your choice. All you need to do is eliminate all milk, cheese, ice cream, yogurt, etc. Also read all labels looking for milk products. Also, when you eat out make sure to confirm that your meal doesn't contain any milk products.

I am 29 year old man. I am a lacto-vegetarian. I suffer from stomach problems like excessive gas, bloating, acidity, acid re-flux, constipation, Indigestion, burping after eating, Persistent Mouth Ulcers, since last 1 year now. Are these symptoms due to Allergy? I went to my doctor and he advised me a Food Allergy blood Test. It was observed that i am having YEAST allergy and some allergies of pulses too.

It started after a 2 month period of switching to vegetarian eaiting, on and off. I thought it was the beans, and I stopped them for three weeks, and I still had the uncontrollable gas, and anal leakage. Now its been brought to my attention that soy causes gastro problems, for a number of reasons ( Dr Mercola, "soy is not a health food" youtube - look it up). One thing I started eating that was new was Tofu, and soy milk. Plenty of it. Perhaps this is what is causing it.

I avoided spicy foods and food that causes gas. I took Gas-Ex from time to time when the gas pain was severe. I took Pepto Bismol when I had diarrhea and cramping. I also took over the counter acid reducers for heartburn. My recommendation is to ask for a referral right away to a gynecologist and find out what other tests should be completed to further evaluate and treat the cyst.

Anyone else have gas problems! Its awful no matter what I eat! Lol its embarrassing!

I am suffering with Gas problems for 3-4 years. Excess gas forming and much odor (bad smell) and this make me upset. I consulted with many doctors and they have given me different medications during these period. There is no stomach pain and there is no indigestion problems. There is little bit problems for Piles, and motion is not normal.

Wonder why you say beans are bad for the gut -- yes, they can be hard for some to digest and they might give you gas, but they are very high in fiber (fiber also gives you gas) and with all I know very good for most people. Yes, some can't handle beans, and many don't know how to properly prepare them, but you certainly don't need to ferment them to eat them (though that's a good way to eat soy, certainly).

Hello, I am 20 (type 2 diabetic with it very controlled, also overweight but lost 80 pounds on a healthy vegetarian diet, still have more weight to lose ) and in urgent need of amswers. I’ve had chest pains for months now. The initial diagnoses was Gerd. I’ve had an echocardiogram and 3 ekg’s. I’ve also had blood test due to several emergency room visits. I’ve seen a cardiologist, neurologist, rheumatologist, and I’m seeing my primary soon.

If i eat a strict, almost vegetarian diet with flax seed ground up (for fiber) and eliminate sugar, white flour and junk foods and fast food, I feel much better and do not have at least 50% of the problems. Of course, I had to have my gallbladder out and my hernia fixed first. I still had problems with digestion after they were taken care of--that's when I went on a clean diet. What is your age? Are you male or female? At time of gallbladder and hernia problems, I was in my 40s.

Hi, I am a 34 year old female. I was diagnosed with colon cancer (Dukes B) and had a resection and am about to start chemotherapy for 20 weeks (5FU once a week intravenously). I understand the frequent bowel movements although they are challenging at times and where is all this poop coming from?! lol. What I'm having trouble with is the gas. It's only started recently and is usually in the evening/ after dinner. I have been trying to eat less red meat and more vegetarian meals.

I plan on going back to being vegetarian and still breast feeding once baby is born in 3 weeks (I'm beih induced). do you have any tips on what I can supplement or things to do so my supply doesn't run out and my baby gets what she needs through my milk?

There are many good vegetarian protein sources. Nuts, beans, higher protein whole grains and seeds and grain-like foods. I'd go buy a few books on vegetarian cooking. But know that not everyone is equipped to do well as a vegetarian -- most vegetarians do it for ideological reasons and it is harder to get all your nutrients as a vegetarian, particularly methionine and B12, so you do have to learn how to do it well.

I am a former vegetarian of 5 years. When I was a vegetarian I was not being very responsible in regards to getting adequate nutrition which caused my thyroid to become imbalanced. I lost 15 pounds in one month, and I didn’t weigh very much to being with. I felt very, very sick and consequently started eating meat again. I still feel that animal abuse is wrong, but you can get meat from local farmers where you know how the animals are treated.

You are going to have to work a little harder to get that protein in but it can be done. Do your homework and study up on a vegetarian lifestyle. Some ways you can get protein is soy, nuts and beans. My teenage daughter wanted to be a vegetarian for a few years so I had to learn how to cook vegetarian. She's not doing it so much anymore but I still use soy, like the soy crumbles in soups or the firm tofu in veggie stir fries. She also likes the Boca burgers, which is a soy burger.

I am curious to hear from other vegetarians who are ttc and who have already given birth and are raising their kids vegetarian as well. I moderate my soy intake and I do still eat cheese and seafood.

I just started a vegetarian diet what would be the best diet for vegetarian to lose weight?

I am an vegetarian and occasionally i will have Egg. Please suggest me if you have any answers for this problem and also please ask me any kind of questions if you have. Thanks...... Karthik Kumar.

I was taking it in hopes of reliving a lot of embarrassing gas I was having -- hence the vegetarian diet. I remember the how the leakage started. I was going to New York for the weekend and I wanted to be gas free for the trip, so I took one pill on thursday, left to NY on Friday. I stuck with the vegetarian diet, still had embarrassing gas so on Saturday I took half a pill. Sunday I was watching someone speak in a concert hall, and still I was experiencing gas.

What happens if a vegetarian decides to start eating red meat again? Are there any known issues or problems? If anyone knows anything please let me know, thanks.
