Beano is good if you're eating veggies and whole grains. It needs to be taken at the start of the meal. Do not take it after you've eaten or between meals, as it won't be effective.
You should also start on probiotics if you haven't already. Over time they will also help with gas production and will give you a number of other gastrointestinal benefits as well. They are also indicated in helping to prevent or at least reduce the frequency and severity of pouchitis, so they're definitely a good thing to add to your regime.
There are foods that are supposed to help with gas reduction, including buttermilk, yogurt, cranberry juice (the real stuff, not the drink), peppermint and fennel seeds. I posted this in another thread recently, by my dietician had in fact recommended crushing fennel seeds, putting them into a tea ball and brewing them as a tea. And since fennel has a natural licorice flavour, you can't complain about the taste.
Products like gas-x, oval and imodium advanced, or other anti-gas products which contain simethicone, will not actually help reduce gas but are supposed to help you pass it faster or more easily. So really, they might get you through a bad spell but they're not going to help much over the long term. As others have mentioned, the key is really to try to prevent gas from starting in the first place.
