Being Gassy

Hi 811 Community, Hi Doug,

I’ve been on 811 since about 6 months and since about 3 months I have been very gassy. During the first 3 months I was also gassy from time to time, but not this consistently.

My diet has been:

2000kcal Banana Smoothie

500kcal Oranges

300kcal Avocados

50kcal Leafy greens

Sometimes changing Avocados for Chia seeds, and for the first 3 months I was eating persimmons instead of oranges. Sometimes also exchanging the Avocados for Hemp.

I have no idea what to do, and it’s bothering me. It smells really bad and im also bloated.

Doug: I saw on one of your videos/ posts that overeating could be an cause for this. With overeating are you referring to overeating what the capacity of your stomach can handle in one sitting, or eating more than your daily needs within the course of your meals?

Another notion: I use a high speed blender for my banana smoothie. Could it be speeding up their oxidation so that the smoothie starts turning to alcohol within my intestines?

For a week i went off the fats and proteins like avocados, chia seeds and hemp, just to test wether they could be the issue, but there was no or minimal change.

I don’t believe to little water intake is the issue, as I drink quite frequently. Equates to approximately 3L per day

Would really appreciate some help 🙏
