I didn't have that issue while on phase 1. I'm sure it has to do with the veggies you are eating. I know brocc, cabbage causes my hubby gas. He found that by sprinkling a little Balsamic Vinegar over it helps with the gas.

Hope this helps you a little.

Hi and welcome!

If you are eating more raw veggies than your body is used to digesting, that could be why you are having gas. It should pass in a few days. Maybe cut back a bit on the raw and cook more of your veggies.

I find that I have that issue when I eat string beans...go figure!
