I found this article that relates food allergys to increased flatus production. This makes sense because when we eat certain foods we create more gas. Here it is.
Food intolerance could be the main reason people with chronic inflammation disease (CID) continue to suffer, scientists have revealed.
Research carried out by a team at York University and food allergy researchers YorkTest showed a vast improvement in people suffering from various inflammatory diseases after they identified and eliminated certain problem foods from their diet.
More than 75% of the 5,000 participants who took part in the study showed the improvement within three weeks of cutting out the foods, which were identified through an IgG antibodies test, commonly used to identify food intolerance.
Of the people who took part in the research, 91% saw improvement in flatulence/wind, 90% saw improved upset stomach symptoms, 88% had fewer general aches and pains, 87% were less fatigued, 84% had fewer rashes and 74% saw improved arthritis symptoms after changing their diet.
Those with IBS showed a significant reduction in stomach distension, bowel dysfunction and general well-being, and also showed a reduction in factors such as pain and fatigue.

Lactose intolerance and flatulence
Worldwide, more than 60% of adults are unable to digest lactose, with the undigested sugars leading to cramping, flatulence, bloating and other symptoms. While some 90% of northern Europeans are able to digest lactose after childhood, only 5% of Asians, 25% of African and Caribbean peoples, and half of Mediterranean peoples are lactose tolerant. USA TODAY (08/31)
Flat-D knows this is a problem for many people. We have a simple solution and one that does not have any side effects like many drugs cause. Try our Flatulence Deodorizer to remove the odor from the intestinal gas or flatus.

Immediate Flatulence Solution
I was sitting in a seminar and the speaker talked about americans being a microwave society. We all want things done quickly or have immediate satisfaction. Microwaves cook things very quickly, we are all busy lives and dont have time to wait for things to come out of a conventional oven. Drive thrus are very popular, we want to eat now and while we are driving to our next stop. We want immediate gratification for our needs. The speaker said that if we develop products that help people to get things done quickly - then it will be very successful. We at Flat-D Innovations know we have a product that meets that "No Waiting" requirement. If you know you are about to have a gassy emission, then you can place the Flatulence Deodorizer pad in your underwear right now and it will remove the odor from the intestinal gas. The pad is made out of activated charcoal cloth and is placed in the underpants like a panty liner. Compare that to taking any kind of medicine. Drugs can take an hour to take effect and are many times only marginally effective. Those that have had bariatric surgery or gastric bypass are well known gas producers and can attest to the success of the fart filter. We hope everyone has a wonderful holiday season!

Flatulence odor is good for you?
Believe it or not the gas odor from flatus may be good for you. Remember the flatulance smell is removed by a Flat-D Flatulence Deodorizer. The article does not state you have to smell the passing gas odor. The hydorgen sulphide in your fart gas is probably absorbed into your system in the colon. Is it better to not be embarrassed by your intestinal gas odor or have lower blood pressure? Read the following article for details.
The gas responsible for the foul odour of flatulence and rotten eggs may play an important role in regulating blood pressure, Canadian researchers say in a study released Friday.
Hydrogen sulphide — a toxic gas that, among other things, is made by bacteria living in the human intestinal tract — relaxes blood vessels and allows for easier blood flow, according to the study in Friday's edition of the journal Science.
It is hard "not to overestimate the biological importance of hydrogen sulphide or its implications in hypertension," writes Rui Wang, a physiologist at Lakehead University in Thunder Bay, Ont. Wang co-authored the study with Lingyun Wu, a pharmacologist of the University of Saskatchewan and other researchers from the Johns Hopkins medical school in Baltimore.
The five-year mouse study found that an enzyme called CSE produced the gas in cells lining the walls of blood vessels throughout the body.
That finding confirmed earlier research that suggested a link between the enzyme and the gas.
In the study, researchers bred mice with lower-than-average levels of CSE and found that the engineered animals had significantly depleted levels of hydrogen sulphide compared to a group with normal levels of the enzyme.
The researchers also found that the mice with CSE deficiencies had blood pressure levels that were 20 per cent higher than the normal mice.
However, when the mice bred for lower CSE levels were given methacholine, a drug given to relax blood vessels, their blood pressure levels were not significantly different than those with normal levels of the enzyme. The researchers said this suggests the gas is responsible for the change in blood pressure.
The findings could lead to new treatments for high blood pressure in humans, said the study authors.
"Now that we know hydrogen sulphide's role in regulating blood pressure, it may be possible to design drug therapies that enhance its formation as an alternative to the current methods of treatment for hypertension," study co-author Dr. Solomon H. Snyder, a neuroscientist at Johns Hopkins University, said in a Johns Hopkins news release.

NEW MEN’S PRODUCT NEUTRALIZES INTESTINAL GAS ODORS
Diamond-Shaped Pad Provides New Freedom for Men
June 2, 2008 — As Flat-D Innovations celebrates its fifth year anniversary, the company is introducing a new product for men — the Men-D, a diamond-shaped, reusable pad that serves as a discreet flatulence deodorizer. The Men-D eliminates odors from intestinal gas via a patented three-ply activated charcoal cloth used in all of the company’s products. The new product also marks the launch of the Flat-D men’s product line, which includes the Men-D, the portable Flat-D Chair Pad and the extra large Flat-D Overpad-D for heavyset individuals. All three products are washable, reusable and available only from http://flat-d.com/mefldepr.html
“The average person experiences intestinal gas about 14 times per day. But many men experience flatulence issues related to medical concerns, such as gastric bypass surgery and blood pressure medication, and the odor can be embarrassing,” said Brian Conant, President of Flat-D Innovations. “The new Men-D neutralizes intestinal gas odors through a thin, comfortable liner designed specifically for men.”
The Men-D is placed in the underwear in order to capture and neutralize intestinal gas at the source. The pad can be hand washed, dried and reused several times. The Flat-D Chair Pad is a 16 x 16-inch piece of thin, black activated charcoal cloth that is simply placed on any chair. It is 100% portable and foldable for your traveling convenience. (Car, bus, train and airplane) The Flat-D Overpad can be cut to size. According to Conant, this makes it especially useful to gastric bypass patients who can resize the Overpad-D as they lose weight.
The flatulence deodorizing products from Flat-D Innovations products are doctor recommended, and the reusable items are the first of their kind. The company is registered with the Food & Drug Administration. All products can be purchased from the privacy of home at http://www.flat-d.com/, and all products are shipped in unmarked packages.
“We have provided freedom and confidence to women and men in all 50 states and at least 40 other countries,” said Conant. “Flat-D products allow people to work and play as they wish without worrying that their intestinal gas will cause an embarrassing situation.” Historically, 70% of the company’s business has been with women, now they have designed products especially for men.
Flat-D Innovations, an FDA registered company, is the market leader for over 5 years now in flatulence odor control products for personal and medical use. The company’s patented products feature activated charcoal cloth that has improved the lives of people in over 40 countries worldwide. Flat-D flatulence deodorizing products are doctor recommended and used by individuals with gastric bypass, ostomy, irritable bowel syndrome, and other gastrointestinal issues.

Gastric Bypass...Do the Side Effects of Flatulence Weigh You Down?
Gastric bypass patients are not told upfront about a side-effect of their surgery, excessive smelly intestinal gas. This prevents them from becoming social and enjoying life so they are desperate to find a solution. Flat-D Innovations makes the Flatulence Deodorizer pad so they can regain their desired quality of life.
Cedar Rapids, IA February 20, 2008 -- Gastric bypass patients are not being advised of a side-effect of their surgery that will affect them for the rest of their lives. This unpublicized side effect is excessive smelly flatulence. Flat-D Innovations has developed a proven effective solution that removes odor from intestinal gas called the Flatulence Deodorizer.
Gastric bypass surgery is becoming one of the most sought after procedures for obese individuals (over 100,000 last year). This surgery helps individuals regain their self-esteem, confidence and health, by allowing them to reduce their weight. People going through this surgery expect to become socially acceptable. After their surgery they find this side effect to be rather embarrassing and it prevents them from going out in public.
Brian Conant, President of Flat-D Innovations, Inc says, "Our product called 'The Flatulence Deodorizer' is a pad made of activated charcoal cloth. The pad is placed in the underwear, in a similar fashion to a panty liner. When intestinal gas passes thru the cloth pad, the odor is neutralized. Our product has helped thousands of people worldwide and has gained recognition among the medical community."
Testimonial: "You have changed my life! I had gastric bypass surgery about 9 months ago and have awful gas. There is nothing I can take (Beano - Gas-X, etc) that works. I have tried being very careful with what I eat (and I don't eat much!) My coworkers have been pretty nice about it for the most part, but I know it was hard to work in a small office with someone like me. I never went anywhere without a bottle of air freshener. My family complained all the time and I know I was an embarrassment to them. I sat at home in a room by myself a lot. In social situations, I would have to leave and find someplace to hide and pass gas. Fine if it's a public restroom, but not so discreet if you're in someone else's home. Then I ordered your product. Just one weekend of using your product and I am no longer a social pariah! There's no point in trying to be delicate about a problem like this. I'm at work and my colleagues are laughing with me, not running away! I can ride in the car with my family and keep the windows up! It's absolutely amazing. A bonus is the protection it also provides against feminine odor. I'm a new person and can walk free and confident in public now without fear of embarrassment. THANK YOU!!!"D.M. Seattle, WA
It is understandable why many post surgery patients will have highly malodorous flatus. A gastric bypass patient's system won't absorb the food and nutrients as well because their stomach is shortened. When the undigested food passes the stomach and gets down to the colon, the enzymes and bacteria there absorb the excess nutrients and the result is that they create excessive intestinal gas. Most bariatric surgery patients are experiencing this side effect and are desperate for a solution to eliminate the embarrassment associated with the odor.
