Gas

Hello everyone, my name is Brendon. I am almost 11 months post-op and have lost about 155 lbs. For the past couple months it seems that everything I eat gives me gas and it doesn't seem to matter what I eat. I doesn't just happen with certain foods. I do still eat faster than what I should so I don't know if that has anything to do with it. Is anyone having this problem and if so what are you doing to control it. Is there any supplement or over the counter product that can be taken daily to remedy this. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Brendon
