Eating excess proteins and starches tend to cause excess gas. Often the proteins in animal products including meat, fish, eggs and dairy products can cause bad gas problems in many people. The gas from eating these protein sources can be highly increased if for some reason they are not properly digested in the system.

If proteins that are not digested properly reach the colon it can be a great source of nourishment for bad bacteria causing them to multiply greatly.

When the bacteria feed on the undigested food this process causes metabolic waste which is toxic and will cause disease in the body. This will then cause problems in weak tissues in the body. These bacteria have a purpose but are not supposed to be in the colon in a large quantity. The favorable bacteria that are needed in the bowel to maintain good health can not thrive in this dirty, gaseous, constipated environment as it is toxic to these bacteria, but the unfriendly bacteria thrive in this environment and expand greatly in the colon.

Because beans are about half protein and half starch they tend to produce a good amount of gas. This is because some indigestible sugars contained in the starch (verbascose, raffinose & stachyose) are only particularly digested and when they reach the colon the bacteria in the colon digest these sugar, which releases byproducts such as hydrogen, carbon dioxide and some of the time also methane.

Some other foods that tend to form gas are sulfur vegetables such as onions, cabbage and broccoli. It seems that these food cause less problems when raw than when cooked. One suggestion for cooking them is to steam then lightly.

Nuts in general and especially peanuts tend to cause good amounts of gas. Dried fruit that is not soaked in water can cause a good amount of gas. To reduce the amount of gas that dried fruits cause, it is a good idea to soak them overnight before eating them.

Now it is commonly accepted that eating raw foods is a healthy life-style but for this to be so and not to cause plenty of gas it is necessary to have a strong digestive system that has a fast transit time. Raw foods do of course decrease transit time so it is also a good idea to eat raw foods so the colon is healthy and works well.

Live foods are those that have not had their enzymes destroyed by cooking them with high heat. Live foods can cause a good amount of gas if the bowel transit time is slow.

For many people it is advisable to increase the percentage of raw foods in their diet over a period of time to give the body a change to adjust.

To lower the amount of gas in the system it is necessary to first consider the foods that are being put into the system. There is little point in reducing the gases in the system if you are still eating foods that cause excessive gas to form.

If foods that are spoiled are eaten they will continue to spoil when they enter the small intestine and keep spoiling when they enter the large intestine (colon), which will cause excess gas. The process of putrefication produces gas.

This effect is especially severe with ground meats, such as hamburgers, sausages, hot dogs and some cold cuts. Putrefication can increase when the food reaches the warm heat of the body. The problem with ground meat is that each cell contains an enzyme called lysozymes which helps to breakdown the cell, but when the meat is ground this enzyme mixes with the cells and start destroying the cell which is why ground meat tends to spoil faster than meat that is not ground. The problems with this are that ground meat starts to spoil as soon as it is ground which speeds up the putrefication process.

A major reason that meat, fish, poultry and eggs tend to cause excess gas is because they contain little fiber which tends to slow down the transit time of these materials. The slower the transit time means there is more time for the substances to putrefy in the digestive system. When the substance in the system putrefies or breaks down without being properly digested this causes excess gas.

If foods that contain a good amount of protein are eaten it is necessary to also have in the diet foods that contain a good amount of fiber to help speed up the transit time, so putrefication of the food does not take place and forms gas.

As this problem is especially severe with meat products, especially ground red meats such as hamburgers. It is no surprise that with the increase in fast food restaurants that digestive diseases and cancer have increased in the colon.
