Well, now that you know WHY you have gas, maybe try these to get rid of it quickly.
Don't know if these work, but here's what I found:
1. The old fashion exercise 'the bicycle' where you lay on the floor & push your feet & legs up in the air like you are riding a bike. The key is to get your hips up off of the floor too. Instant cure for gas. All that pedaling gets things moving inside.
2. dRINK 2 TEASPOONS OF APPLE CIDER VINAGAR.
3. A teaspoon of mustard works wonders.
4. Best remedy for gas and bloating is chewing 1 tbsp Fennel seeds after meals.
5. Eat one or two peppermints. I know your like, 'Wow, that's it!' Trust me, it works.
6. Eat one or two garlic dill pickles, I just did it! man it really works, And loving dill pickles it was an easy cure!
7. Four charcoal capsules will eliminate gaseaous bloat within an hour or so.
If eating something which you know creates this problem, take the capsules before the meal. Can be obtained through www.puritans pride.com
8. Boil a few mint leaves in a cup of water for about 5mins.Drink this after every meal and it will keep gas problems away.
9. Try to avoid foods that cause it. Fast foods can cause severe gas. Cut down on broccoli, dairy, beans, cabbage... anything that makes you have gas.

Some foods, especially vegetables, create a chemical reaction when mixed with other foods in our stomach makes us pass gas, which can be quite offensive.

Because of a sulphuric content I think. Any foods that contain sulphur make you fart and it smells. Eggs and sprouts have a high sulphur content. Its the sulphur that comes out of your backside and smells.
