There can be a number of reasons as to why you are 'gassy', though the majority of which are not due to disease. It is more likely to do with the consumption of air when eating, or slow or incomplete digestion, leading to a build up of the kind of bacteria that leads to a build of gas. It could, of course, be due to irritable bowel, where small amounts of gas accumulation would make you feel uncomfortable. Speak to your doctor to see what s/he thinks this could be.
If you are bothered by excessive belching or flatus, and your physician has determined that you have no serious disease, the following suggestions may be helpful:
> Check with a dentist to make sure dentures fit properly.
> Avoid chewing gum or sucking on hard candies (especially sugarless gum or dietetic candies that contain sorbitol).
> Eliminate carbonated beverages from your diet.
> Avoid milk and milk products if you have lactose intolerance.
> Eat fewer gas-producing foods such as cauliflower, brussels sprouts, bran, beans, broccoli, and cabbage.
> Walking, jogging, calisthenics, and other exercise help to stimulate the passage of gas through the digestive tract.
If your symptoms persist or worsen, see your doctor to make sure that the condition is not caused by abnormalities in your digestive tract.
There can be treatment, such as the consumption of activated charcoal, though a lot of people claim they get little relief from this.

Try eating 4 small a day & healthy snacks. If that doesn't work try eliminating foods from your diet to see which foods are causing the problem.

Your stomach growling may not be gas. "Borborygmy", or the sound you mention, can also be caused by the organ being empty or other conditions.

Try using a product called "Beano". It is supposed to help reduce gas.
