Anti-Fart Blankets & Underwear

beth-28's recent post, a bad case of gas and the fact that I'm in a relationship now have got me thinking. Do the anti-flatulance products I've heard of out there really work?

I've heard of the Better Marriage Blanket; http://www.bettermarriageblanket.com & Under Ease Underwear; http://www.under-tec.com.

What's the poop on these? Do they work? Are there other similar products that work better?

From what I've heard they are a waste of money. This issue is really only treatable from the inside out.

 Hey Frank-

I know I'm only a couple of months post op, but I was having major issues with the bathroom and with gas.  At the advice of someone else posting here I started on probiotics.  I've only been on them for 5 days but I already notice a difference.  There are many kinds you can buy.  I bought mine from Costco and I just add them to my vitamin regimen-1 more pill-no big deal.

If your gas is really bad, fix it.

Get on probiotics, take a few doses of Flagyl, watch what you eat when you will be expecting company and avoid gas producing foods.

I wouldn't waste my money on something like that.

If you want to just throw some money at this problem rather than solving it, save a dog from the pound and blame the gas on him.

Still refusing to change your diet, eh?

I realize you don't want to hear this, as has been your pattern, but it will perhaps be educational for newbies. There are your same kinds of threads on www.duodenalswitch.com as well.

There is no magic to this. If you don't make it in your body, you won't fart it out.

Devrom, available online.

Elizabeth... congratulations. I appears you've won today's prize for most annoying comment of the day.

She only said what the rest of us were thinking.

Honeybuns, you are nothing if not predictable. It's only annoying because you know it's true. You've eaten fart=causing **** since day one. So don't expect us to suddenly change our advice to you. Quit eating the carby **** like that EIGHT OUNCES OF ORANGE JUICE every morning, and you'll quit stinking up a storm.

Besides, if you keep eating this **** you're going to be back in a few more months whining about weight gain. And then YOU will be the one who is REALLY annoying. As if you weren't already.

Bat****crazywingsman comes to mind. Hamburger Helper, anyone?
