Peas
Peas produce gas due to their high fiber content, something that slows digestion and favors the appearance of flatulence.
Broccoli
Broccoli is a cruciferous vegetable and is one of the foods that produce the most gas in our organism when we eat it. To avoid this, it is good to eat it boiled or sautéed, because raw broccoli can produce a lot of flatulence.
Cauliflower
The reason why cauliflower produces gas is because it contains raffinose, a sugar that is not digested until it reaches the intestinal bacteria. In addition, it contains a lot of fiber, another reason why you may suffer gas problems. It is advisable to eat it raw or, if you cook it, wait for it to boil and then add plenty of cold water.
Dried fruit
Nuts are slow digesting foods, something that produces gas when consumed. They are healthy in many ways, but if you suffer from flatulence, we recommend that you consume them in moderation.
Figs
Figs contain a lot of fructose, a typical fruit sugar responsible for the fact that this food does not cause gas after consumption.
Lenses
Legumes are foods that are usually rich in protein and raffinose, a sugar that produces gas in our body. To avoid this, it is recommended that you leave them to soak for a long time before cooking, or eat them in the form of puree.
Potato
This widely consumed tuber is very rich in starch, which makes it a complicated food to digest and, therefore, produces gas.
Refreshments
Carbonated beverages contain added carbon dioxide. In other words, every time we drink one of these beverages, we are consuming gases directly. If we add to that their high sugar content, the result is usually gas.
Whole grains
They are healthier than nonwhole grains, but as they are a strong source of carbohydrates they are also rich in fiber, something that can complicate digestion and generate a lot of gas.
Beans
Beans are rich in soluble fiber, which is not easily digested by the intestine and produces uncomfortable gas in the body.
