Gas and Bloating Supplement FAQ

Q: What are gas and bloating supplements, and what can they do for you?

Suffering from recurring gas and bloating can be embarrassing, uncomfortable and painful. While there are varying factors that cause gas and bloating (such as different types of food, indigestion, etc), sometimes it may just be one or the other, most sufferers would be delighted to find a long-term solution. A quality gas and bloating supplement should be a soothing digestive aid to help relax the intestinal muscles and allow trapped gas to move through and out the body. It should aim to provide fast relief from gas as well as prevent unwanted bloating and cramps.

We put together a list of ingredients that have been proven via scientific research as to their efficacy in relieving gas and helping to prevent bloating. One of the key combinations we found is Artichoke and Ginger. This duo has shown efficacy at soothing the digestive system to help promote gas relief. Ideally it should contain Artichoke that is standardized to contain 2.5% Cynarin which is the active component. Another winning combination is Peppermint and Caraway seed which is beneficial for promoting intestinal health and expelling gas. Other key ingredients include Fennel, Turmeric with a high percentage of curcuminoids for maximum potency along with Roman Chamomile for carminative effects and BioPerine^® for optimal absorption.

Q: Do all gas and bloating supplements work?

Unfortunately, no. Many fly-by-night companies just ride these health trends, manufacturing inferior products with the wrong ingredients and proportions. They often use cheap fillers and binders that can block the desired effects of the key ingredients.

Q: What should I look for?

• It should contain a daily serving of at least 320 mg Artichoke that is standardized to contain 2.5% Cynarin.
• It should include both Artichoke and Ginger - a combination shown to be effective in clinical studies.
• It should include both Peppermint and Caraway, a winning combo to support intestinal health.
• It should offer a potent 250 mg of Fennel for carminative effects and aid prevention.
• It should include the more effective Roman Chamomile (as opposed to German Chamomile) standardized to contain 1.2% Apigenin.
• It should contain Turmeric with a high percentage of curcuminoids such as the Curcumin C3 Complex^® standardized to contain 95% curcuminoids.
• It should include BioPerine^®, a thermogenic agent that boosts bioavailability for faster absorption and more effective results.
• It must have no fillers, binders or any other artificial ingredients.
• It must be 100% pure with no added ingredients that might water down the product.

Q: What about safety? Are there side effects to watch out for?

From our research, we did not find any interference between gas and bloating supplements and other medications or conditions. However, we still recommend consulting with a physician if you have a medical condition or take medications on a regular basis or if you are pregnant or nursing.

Q: How do I take gas and bloating supplements?

You should take either one or two capsules per day - depending on the instructions on the label. As with any type of supplement, you should not exceed the recommended daily dosage, since this can pose serious health risks.

Q: How long will it take to see the effects?

Some customers we spoke to reported seeing results in as little as one week. For others, it took about a month. Results also seem to be a bit different for each person. Some show unbelievable change right away, while for others it may take slightly longer. Many of the reputable brands we reviewed offer refunds to customers who don’t see the results they want in any given time frame. For example, Research Verified Gas & Bloating offers a 365-day money-back guarantee if you are not happy with the results you experience.

Q: How much do gas and bloating supplements cost?

The cost of gas and bloating supplements varies based on the manufacturer. Many of them are worthless, just random companies with cheap quality products trying to cash in on the health trends. Some of these companies sell their supplements for as much as $100 per bottle, which we think is a bit too high. Most of the really good supplements we tested fell in the $40-$50 range. Others may appear cheaper, but they often boast a one-month supply when they’re really giving you half the recommended dosage with plenty of fillers and binders.
