#lactose#bloating#guthealth Flatulence is a natural bodily process, and most people pass gas several times a day. However, constant farting, foul-smelling gas, or persistent bloating may indicate digestive imbalance. In this video, Hansaji explains how to stop farting too much by correcting the root causes of flatulence through simple lifestyle practices, yoga, and traditional digestive remedies. Simple habits to improve digestion and reduce flatulence:
• Eat slowly and chew food thoroughly to support digestive enzymes. • Avoid overeating and very heavy mixed meals. • Finish dinner early, preferably before 8:30 pm. • Avoid drinking large amounts of water during meals.
Traditional digestive support: CCF tea
A helpful flatulence home remedy is CCF tea, made from cumin, coriander, and fennel seeds. These spices help regulate digestion gently.
• Cumin stimulates digestive enzymes and bile flow. • Coriander supports liver function and helps reduce internal heat. • Fennel relaxes intestinal muscles and reduces spasms, helping relieve bloating.
Preparation: Boil half a teaspoon each of cumin, coriander, and fennel in two to three cups of water for about seven minutes. Strain and sip warm.
Yoga practices that support digestion:
• Pavanmuktasana helps release trapped gas and supports movement within the digestive system. • Vajrasanana can be practised after meals for five to ten minutes to improve digestion and reduce bloating. • Anulom vilom pranayama helps regulate breathing and reduce stress, which indirectly improves digestion.
Helpful dietary support:
Buttermilk prepared from diluted curd with roasted cumin and a pinch of rock salt can support healthy gut bacteria and reduce abnormal fermentation in the stomach. It is best consumed during the day rather than at night. Common triggers of flatulence:
• Excess tea or carbonated drinks • Artificial sweeteners • Protein supplements without proper guidance • Very late or heavy dinners • Lactose intolerance in some individuals
Precautions:
If flatulence occurs along with severe pain, unexplained weight loss, persistent diarrhea, constipation, or blood in the stool, medical consultation is important.
Good digestion depends on rhythm and discipline. Regular walking, adequate sleep, balanced meals, and stress management help maintain digestive health and energy.
Passing some gas is natural, but excessive flatulence is the body’s signal to simplify habits and support healthy digestion.

Namaskar. Did you know that any average human passes gas 10 to 20 times a day? And it's natural.
Your body must release what it does not need. But when gas becomes excessive, foul smelling,
or socially embarrassing, it is no longer just a bodily function. It is a sign that something is
not right. Today I'm speaking about how to stop excessive flatulence. Not by suppressing it,
but by correcting the root cause of the problem through yoga, Ayurveda, and simple understanding.
Let us see some very effective solutions to avoid excessive flatulence. First,
correct the way you eat. This alone can reduce flatulence dramatically. When you eat fast,
you swallow air. When you do not chew properly, digestive enzymes cannot work effectively.
Sit down calmly. Chew each bite at least 20 times. Do not overload the stomach.
Avoid drinking large quantities of water during the meal. And please avoid mixing too many heavy
items in one sitting. Simple meals digest better than complicated ones.
From an Ayurvedic viewpoint, flatulence or fatting is because of disturbed vata,
particularly imbalance in apana vayu, and weakened or irregular agni, that is digestive fire. Agni is
not just digestion. It converts food into energy, tissues, immunity, and even clarity of mind.
When agni is steady, what we call as samagni, digestion is smooth, elimination is regular,
and there is lightness in the body. When agni is weak, you feel heaviness, bloating, and lethargy.
When it is irregular, some days digestion is fine, some days there is excessive gas.
When it is too sharp, maybe acidity and burning. Spices play a very important role in balancing
agni. Here I would like to introduce something which is very powerful and very simple.
CCFT. CCFT stands for Cumin, Coriander, and Fennel. They are in every Indian kitchen. Cumin
stimulates digestive enzyme secretion and supports bile flow. Coriander supports liver function
and reduces internal heat. Fennel contains a compound called anethol, which relaxes
intestinal muscles and reduces spasm. Together, they regulate digestion without overheating your
system. If agni is weak and there is heaviness, take warm CCFT just 20 minutes before meals
for two to three weeks. If there is bloating after meal, take it 30 minutes after eating.
This combination balances your digestion. Think of it as adding small dry twig to a weak fire,
not pouring kerosene. The preparation is simple. Take half a teaspoon each of cumin, coriander,
and fennel seeds. Boil in two to three cups of water for about seven minutes. Strain and
sip warm. Do not overdo it. Even a good fire can be disturbed if constantly poked. Practice
specific yoga posture. Yogendra Pavan Muktasana, the wind releasing pose. It directly compresses
the abdomen and allows the movement of trapped gas. Practice it in the morning on an empty
stomach. Hold each side for 10 to 15 seconds with normal breathing. Follow this with gentle
spinal movement. After meals, sit in Yogendra Vajrasana for 5 to 10 minutes. This is the only
posture recommended after eating. It improves blood flow to your digestive organs and supports
peristalsis. I have seen that this one habit has reduced bloating after meals in many people.
Regulate your breath. Gas is not only about food, it is about stress. When you are anxious,
your body diverts blood away from digestion. So practice Anulom Vilom Pranayam for 5 to 7 minutes
daily. It balances the autonomous nervous system and supports digestion directly.
Now let us see some common triggers. Excess tea, carbonated drinks, artificial sweeteners,
protein supplements without guidance, and very late heavy dinner. These disturb Agni.
Some people have mild lactose intolerance. If milk causes gas, reduce quantity or switch to
diluted buttermilk in the daytime. A simple probiotic buttermilk can help maintain healthy
gut bacteria. Take diluted fresh curd, add a pinch of roasted jeera powder,
and a little rock salt. Consume it midday, not at night. Healthy gut bacteria reduce abnormal
fermentation in gut, which directly reduces gas production. At the same time, remember precautions.
If along with excessive gas, you also have severe pain, unexplained weight loss,
diarrhea or constipation, or blood in stool, then you need medical advice.
Do not keep suppressing symptoms with over-the-counter tablets. They give temporary
relief but do not repair Agni. You must understand that your digestion follows rhythm.
Sleep before 11 pm. Walk at least 20-30 minutes daily. Do not suppress natural urges. Ayurveda
clearly warns that suppression of vata lead to diseases. Eat according to your capacity,
not according to social pressure or temptation. Another thing is that your digestive region
corresponds to the manipur center, the seat of vitality and your inner strength. When digestion
is clean, the mind becomes steady. When gas accumulates, even thoughts become restless.
So managing flatulence is not a small or embarrassing topic. It is about restoring
harmony between food, breath and lifestyle. Passing some gas is natural, but excessive
flatulence is your body's gentle message to slow down and simplify. Digest properly not only food
but also experiences. If you eat calmly, protect your Agni. Practice simple yoga daily and live
in rhythm with nature. Your body will function quietly and gracefully. Good health naturally
comes from respecting your body's Agni. Namaskar
