Health Tip: Foods That Cause Gas

(HealthDay News) - Some of the yummiest foods tend to produce gas as they make their way through the digestive tract.

Here are some potential offenders, courtesy of the National Digestive Diseases Clearinghouse:

• Several types of sugars, such as those found in milk, cheese, ice cream and other dairy products, fruits, some vegetables, and sodas.

• Starchy foods, such as pasta, potatoes, corn and wheat.

• Fiber-rich foods, including whole grains, fruits, beans and peas.

• Cabbage, broccoli, onions, artichokes and asparagus.

• Some processed foods -- especially those that contain lactose -- such as bread, salad dressings and cereals.
