RE: Cabbage and reducing gas?

[Guest guest]

I use ginger root for any intestinal

complaints, and it is a good deterrent for gas as well. I cook cabbage at least

once of week for the whole family and none of us have problems. Perhaps those

that are truly sensitive to it should not partake? I think there are

homeopathic formulas out there for gas as well, but I am not sure what they are

for adults. Something to look into maybe.

Cabbage and reducing gas?

Hello all,

I've been trying to introduce more healthy foods into the family diet, but I'm

getting objections on cabbage (and related items) because of the gas they tend

to encourage in the gut. Are there (natural, healthy) ways to reduce this

tendency? I'm making my own sauerkraut from the book Nourishing Traditions, for

example. Is there a way to reduce problems there?

Thanks!

Lynne
