The essential oil compounds found in the seeds have anti-oxidant, digestive and anti-flatulent benefits, making them helpful for trapped wind. Simethicone is an active ingredient which breaks down the tiny bubbles of gas that cause the bloated feeling and gurgling noises of trapped wind. This helps to form fewer, larger bubbles, which are more easily expelled or absorbed in the intestine. Rennie takes you through some of the most commonly asked questions surrounding the issue of trapped wind. WHAT IS TRAPPED WIND? As mentioned previously, guzzling down food can lead to you gulping in excess air with your food. Take your time when eating or drinking to avoid this common cause. Each Rennie Deflatine* tablet contains 25mg of Simethicone, which helps break down the small bubbles of gas that can cause the bloated feeling and strange stomach noises associated with trapped wind.

Gastrointestinal conditions such as Crohn’s disease and coeliac disease can interfere with the digestion of food in the upper part of the digestive tract. This leads to more undigested food, more fermentation and more gas in the lower intestine.

Here are some simple steps you can take to reduce your chances of getting trapped wind in the first place: Eat your meals in a calm environment, or at least take five deep breaths before you begin to eat. 3.
