A high fiber diet can be quite a bit gassier at first. Your body needs time to adjust to better foods. Plus, it's also starting to clean you out.
According to David Wolfe, when fruit reaches undigested food matter in the digestive tract, the fruit will stop digesting and ferment, causing gas. The longer you go high raw, the more your body should start removing the undigested waste.
Also, some people are very sensitive to food combining (myself not so much, at least I haven't noticed it, yet). So, if you are eating fruit with, or too soon after, certain denser foods, you may be having issues.
