Why do potatoes make me gassy and bloated? Tried every type and it's the same

>>70792692 (OP)

Maybe you're not cooking them long enough? They shouldn't have any crunch or bite to them at all. They should be soft on the interior.

>>70792692 (OP)

Maybe your colon is retarded. Let it adjust by eating a diet containing fiber for longer.

>>70792692 (OP)

potatoes are literally poison u dummy

you should probably peel the foreskin off first. potatoes don’t have FODMAPs but the fiber might be doing you in

You don't digest them well. Probably having issues with the starch. Eat a different carb source

>>70792692 (OP)

fiber and starch is hard to digest if you're not used to it. this is why mashed potatoes mixed with fatty liquids is much better. try olive oil, it works pretty well

I lost mine in a circumcision accident as an infant.

What >>70792752 said.

You're probably sensitive to nightshades, and in particular the solanine that potatoes produce as a pesticide. I have this same issue. My eyes will literally become severely irritated when I'm peeling potatoes and accidentally get some of the juice into my eye. Mother nature is poisoning you.

I get gassy and bloated when I eat a baked potato with the skin, but ok when I just have them mashed. Just means its working I guess.

also dont forget they give you leprosy

>>70792692 (OP)

either youre not cooking them enough (they should be fluffy, 0 fibrousness whatsoever like this guy said >>70792711)

or you have bacterial overgrowth thats so bad that you cant tolerate starch



it can be kind of tricky to cook potatoes thoroughly especially if using a microwave

but assuming its option 2, you should eat a raw carrot salad every day for a week

raw carrots are extremely effective at killing bacteria and flushing out endotoxin, if you have problems with bacterial overgrowth the raw carrot salad will do you wonders

after the first week you can reduce the frequency to maybe once every couple or few days



also while youre doing this, replace starch with sucrose as your carb source

find some sweet orange juice, put sugar in your coffee, canned fruit, honey, etc and match the amount of carbs youd normally eat

sugar absorbs in the stomach and upper intestine so it shouldnt make it far enough to feed the bacteria, thus reducing bacterial populations over time

after maybe a few weeks of carrot salad and sugar instead of starch, then you can maybe start reintroducing starch and see how you feel

or you can just stick to simple sugar forever thats fine too if it makes you feel better



carrot salad recipe:

buy pre-shredded raw carrots or shred 1 raw carrot yourself using a grater or a peeler

add a teaspoon of coconut oil

a dash of vinegar

salt to taste

stir it up and voila



the coconut oil, salt, and vinegar also have antibacterial effects on top of tasting great



also make sure youre not consuming any PUFA in your diet as this is the root cause of IBS

Is airfrying potatos also good?

post hands



Imagine fudding potatoes

taters are the GOAT food, no way around it

>>70792692 (OP)

Boil them well and try mashing them with butter, the saturated fat will help the digestion of the starch.

Alternatively go zero starch and get your carbs from milk, OJ, sugar and cola.
