Sounds to me like you could really benifit from some good bacteria and enzymes. Most times problems like yours occur when food is not fully digested. Nutrilite is the leading supplement company out there that offers products that would help you to restore the proper balance you need.

When you get to the website click health you will find Nutrilite products there. I highly recommend a product called Intestiflora for one month. My husband had IBS and this product restored his GOOD bacteria. We then got the digestive Enzymes to help break down his food and it helped him alot. This products sku # is A-8903. Typing the sku #in the search bar seems to be the best way to find it. I really believe this is the best place for you to start. Let me know how your results are. I bet this will do the trick.

Dear gas person,
This website has plenty of information about gas:
http://www.aboutincontinence.org/Gas.html
It has info about what to do about odor.
Since you go to the bathroom in the morning, try getting up early enough to take a shower afterwards, as body sweat can carry odor.
I think that hour-long ride is rough on your gas problem, because your body and thus your intestines sit still for so long. So, if you could get to work a little early, you could do a fairly lengthy walk to let the gas pass from sitting in the car. Even a little stretching might help.
Regular exercise in general will help your bowels move better and expel more fully and the gas with it. And as you know, being stressed out about this problem may make it worse, so it's important that you do things that will keep you relaxed, which exercise does, as well as resting well in the evenings.
Also, during the day, drink a little extra water, to keep your bowels looser and less dry. And eating out in general causes gas, unless it's a light sandwich or soup and crackers. And don't drink sodas at work. The sugar and fizz create gas and tummy upset.
When you get home from your long ride back, do some stretching or another walk. Wait a little while before you eat dinner and then rest a little while after you eat.
I hope you can get more comfortable with this gas thing.
