Intestinal or stomach gas can be treated with over-the-counter medications, such as Beano, Gas-X or Mylanta. For individuals who prefer a more natural treatment, try drinking a cup of peppermint tea. Peppermint tea is also helpful in relieving gas, since oil in the peppermint’s leaves soothes the lining of the digestive tract.

Other treatments include cutting back on certain fiber and diary foods that cause gas, such as broccoli, beans, onions, apples, pears, breads, cereals, muffins, cheese, milk and ice cream. Eat smaller meals during the day, chew food thoroughly and don’t eat when you are stressed out, scared, anxious or in a rush.

If gas still persists after trying the above treatments, then contact your primary care physician or a gastroenterologist for further diagnosis and treatment.
