Thumbs up OMG!! It really works!!
Hey all! I haven't been on in a while but I HAD to come and tell everyone this.
Well I read in a magazine of mine that artichoke leaf extract is supposed to pevent bloating and gas because it increases the production of bile like 200% so I thought what the hay.....I will give it a try because like a lot of you know gas can be unbearable(in smell especially...LOL!) after weight loss surgery.
So anyway, I bought the Solaray brand from vitamin shop for $9.95 for 60 capsules. You take 2-4 a day(in 2 cap doses). LET ME TELL YOU...IT WORKS!!!
Seriously...before I started I would have bad gas. Especially after I ate something I shouldn't have but now I don't.
They worked almost imediately. My husband calls it a miracle vitamin and that he is going to look for it in bulk because my gas does not stink like it used to...LOL!!!!
Before, everyone in the house would know when I let one out but now I can sneek one and nobody even realizes it...LOL!
If you have gas or bloat trouble you really should give it a try. I swear by artichoke leaf extract now

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.
