Hmm, for me the gas always starts around noon and gets worse until bed. I have an occasional Quest bar, but the gas is daily regardless. I switched my vitamins to get rid of sugar alcohols, but I just noticed my calcium supplements have sorbitol and xylitol. I take the first one at 8:30am then two more during the day...wonder if that might be my culprit. I just bought two 270-count containers, too!

Well, not taking them for a day or two should give you the answer to that. Also, are you chewing thoroughly?  Allegedly, not chewing well enough can cause a variety of problems since we don't have the use of all the stomach acids/enzymes to help break down the food (constipation, bloating, gas).

Chewing thoroughly is probably something I could definitely pay more attention to.

Some people swear by the stuff for making gas not stink, but for me, it's so hit-and-miss that it's like playing Russian roulette. Will this one go completed unnoticed? Or will it make my officemate evacuate to the hallway with lightning speed? Who knows; every fart is a mystery!

if you are using the chewable, they have sugar alcohol which CAUSES stinky gas in me!
