Why does peanut butter make me burp

Because your body has difficulty digesting the raffinose in beans, consuming them causes gas, and while that gas can often relieve itself in a slightly more unpleasant way, it can also come out in the form of burping.

Ah, what a magical fruit indeed. Cruciferous vegetables, such as cauliflower, broccoli, and brussels sprouts, are known for causing gas, which can also cause burping. But since these veggies are so good for you, you don't totally want to eliminate them from your diet; you just need to change the way you prepare them. Cook them instead of consuming raw to make them easier to digest. If you constantly find yourself burping after downing dairy, you could be lactose intolerant.

Many people have difficulty digesting lactose , the sugar found in dairy products, leading to increased gas—and yep, that totally includes cheese. BRB, crying. Go easy on the soda and the seltzer if you don't want to be burping it up later on. If beer is your go-to, you might want to consider switching to wine. Just like soda, beer releases carbon dioxide gas , causing you to burp No problems with tomatoes.

I take Aciphex daily and do not have any heartburn ever. Is there an expectation Aciphex will cure, or just relieve? But clearly you have problems in the digestive system, one would assume this peanut butter thing is a consequence of that.

Try eating a big spoonful of peanut butter with no bread or anything else accompanying it as I am doing right now in solidarity and report back. I take Aciphex because I had surgery for a narrowed esophagus. But, when you compare this ingredient list to Skippy and other brands of the like, you'll see that the culprit is pretty easy to find: hydrogenated vegetable oils. Sure, there's oils in lots of things, but what makes hydrogenated vegetable oils like cottonseed oils, soybean oils, and rapeseed oils all found in Skippy Creamy PB worse is that these oils directly correlate to trans fats.

When most people think trans fats they're more likely to think of Happy Meals instead of peanut butter, but what you don't know certainly can hurt you. Studies have shown that trans fats, like the ones found in peanut butter are one of the number one causes of inflammation in the body. Such inflammation can lead to bloating, gas, and general digestive discomfort. The reason why I was so affected was because I led a pretty "health freak" type of lifestyle while I wasn't eating peanut butter, so eating a brand full of trans fats threw my body completely out of whack.

So if there's anybody out there who is having serious tummy troubles due to peanut butter, give PBFit or PB2 a try. The absence of hydrogenated oils will definitely give you more room to indulge in the spread, leaving all of your friends peanut butter and jelly. For you.
