Most people do not notice it, or some will not admit it, but the average person actually farts 10 to 20 times in a day.  It\u2019s not like you\u2019d be comparing notes with your peers as to who farts more.  It\u2019s an embarrassing topic for most people to discuss.  In fact, when you have to do it, you\u2019d rather that nobody else is present.  And if you happen to let one slip in public, and you\u2019re caught by either the sound or smell of it, it gets to be one of those moments when you wish you could be invisible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As embarrassing as it may be, farting is a very natural body process for mammals.  It is a normal human body function.  Farting happens when there is a buildup of gases in the small intestines, and it reaches a level where the pressure needs to be released.  Scientifically referred to as flatulence, farting indicates that there is a \u201crich community of bacteria that lives throughout your body.\u201d  This is normally an indicator of good health.  In fact, patients who have just gone through abdominal surgery for whatever reason, will be repeatedly checked by the doctor or nurse as to whether or not they have farted, because this is their indicator that the organs of the abdominal region have been put back in good working order.  Of course, if the farting is extremely frequent, or is terribly smellier than usual, these are sometimes indicators of something wrong in the body.  Otherwise, it should be all good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Statistically (and it would be interesting how they studied this), around 99% of flatulence would not be smelly.  The remaining 1% usually stinks due to a number of varied reasons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To learn more about this normal, but embarrassing, body function, here are 9 causes of flatulence, along with 9 possible remedies or cures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Causes Of Farts:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1. Food High In Fiber<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
HelpGuide<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

High fiber food is actually good for you.  However, because they typically take longer to breakdown in your digestive system, they can ferment while awaiting digestion.  These foods tend to contain sulfur, which can smell like rotten eggs, so the gases they produce normally smell just as bad.  Vegetables like broccoli, cabbage, asparagus, bok choy, and sweet potatoes are notorious for producing these smelly farts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

2.  Intolerance to Food<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
American Society for Nutrition<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Intolerance to the food you\u2019ve just eaten can cause a buildup of gas in your intestines, which then causes flatulence.  Note that not everyone is intolerant to the same types of food, so the foods that cause flatulence can differ from person to person.  A person who has intolerance for a specific food will have a hard time digesting or breaking down that food in their intestines.  With the food left unprocessed, it will eventually ferment in the gut, and cause the gas to build up.  Once the gas buildup continues to a pressure that is too high to contain, it will find a way out, and there goes the fart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

3. Constipation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Times of India<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Constipation is when a person is unable to pass stool, or is unable to move their bowel.  This causes a buildup of stool (aka poop) in the colon.  When stool builds up, they harbor bacteria, which create gases and odors, and when the gases build up, they find their way out just as smelly as when they were inside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Constipation can happen for a number of different reasons.  The most common reasons are that the person lacks fiber in their diet, and has too little water in their digestive system.  This being the case, the solution to constipation seems quite simple:  eat more fiber, drink more water.  There are also a variety of over-the-counter laxatives available (medication to make you poop) in the market.  Interestingly, exercise and physical activity have also been studied to help prevent or alleviate constipation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

4. Medication<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
FDA<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

There are some medications that cause stomach irritation, and sometimes this can result to gas buildup in the intestines.  This is especially true for persons with sensitive stomachs.  Some antibiotics, while intended to kill bad bacteria, will also kill good bacteria.  With the reduction of good bacteria, there will expectedly be a reduction in digestive system function.  Bacteria produce gas as they die off, plus undigested food ferment and produce gas.  These two factors combine to cause a gas buildup that will then have to be released, sometimes through a burp, often through a fart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

5. Buildup of Bacteria<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
MedScape<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

For the body to get nourished, it needs to absorb the nutrients from the food it eats.  Once the food is ingested and masticated (chewed), the next step in the process is to digest the food.  Once digested, the good nutrients go into the bloodstream, for distribution to the organs and body parts that will utilize it.  The bad compounds go to the colon, for disposal.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Part of the digestive process is the utilization of good bacteria for the effective breaking down of the food to extract the nutrients for distribution.  This is how the normal process works.  However, if something goes wrong with the normal process, which can happen from time to time, the result is sometimes an accumulation of bacteria in the digestive tract.  Sometimes this will result in stomach pain or even diarrhea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Regardless of whether they are good or harmful bacteria, it is normal for bacteria to produce gas as they react to the contents of your stomach.  Even at normal levels, bacteria will produce gas.  At higher than normal levels, the gas they produce can accumulate faster than the body can expel it, and the result is a one-time large volume expulsion of gas, a fart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

6. Digestive Tract Infection<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Asdar Id<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

It is a classic saga of a battle between good and bad, keeping the balance, raging since the dawn of time\u2026 it is the battle in your gut between good bacteria and bad bacteria, they are trying to keep a good balance in your stomach.  Were you thinking of something else?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In normal state, the good bacteria will prevail in your stomach, and with the help of your immune system, will keep the bad bacteria levels in check.  However, when your immune system is down, it will not always be able to keep the bad bacteria in check, and their numbers will increase.  When there are more bad bacteria than the stomach can handle, or more than the good bacteria can overcome, you get a gastrointestinal infection.  Some of the common signs and symptoms of gastrointestinal infection are diarrhea, nausea or vomiting, abdominal pain, sometimes there will be a fever, and almost always really bad smelling farts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

During a gastrointestinal infection, the high amounts of bacteria will produce high amounts of gas, faster than you can expel.  This means the gas will accumulate until the pressure builds up for a big batch for expulsion.  This is when you fart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unless you address the infectious microbes present, meaning you treat the infection, this cycle of gas accumulation and farting will keep going on, along with the other signs and symptoms of the infection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

7. Gluten or Lactose Intolerance<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Well+Good<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Many adults are lactose intolerant, a fewer number are also gluten intolerant.  Just as in any food intolerance, this means your body cannot process either lactose or gluten, or both.  Gluten is a protein, lactose is a carbohydrate, both of which can cause some irritation in the digestive system when left unprocessed.  Any food left unprocessed by the digestive system will remain in the gut until it is expelled through the excretory system.  While remaining in the gut, exposed to different stomach bacteria, food that accumulate without being processed or digested completely will go through a decaying process that generates gas as a by-product.  This gas will accumulate to a pressure that the gut can no longer contain, and which it will therefore release as a fart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

8.  Celiac Disease<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Healthline<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Celiac Disease is often confused with gluten intolerance, which it is not.  Gluten intolerance means a person\u2019s digestive system is unable to process or digest gluten.  Persons with Celiac Disease have a condition in which their immune system reacts to gluten by damaging the small intestines.  Sometimes this immune system reaction is to trigger inflammation in the small intestines.  The inflammation produces gas, often a feeling of being bloated, diarrhea, and fatigue.  The gas that is produced by the inflammation will accumulate until the inflammation subsides, either by medication or on its own as the gluten is flushed out of the system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Note that Celiac Disease is a lifelong condition, not an illness, so it cannot be cured.  Instead, it can be managed and prevented from manifesting by avoiding gluten in one\u2019s diet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

9.  Cancer of the Colon<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
YouTube<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

While colon cancer can be a cause for frequent farting, this is rarely the case.  Don\u2019t be paranoid about farting often thinking you could have colon cancer, when in fact you may have just eaten something gas-producing.  Still, there is that cancer possibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Colon cancer would mean there are polyps or malignant tumors formed in the digestive tract.  The polyps themselves can create symptoms like bloating, gas buildup, and bowel obstruction.  These are what lead to the flatulence or frequent farting that ensues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Again, frequent farting is not normally a cause for concern.  You cannot conclude you have colon cancer just by the frequency of your farts.  The only way to really determine if you have colon cancer or not is to get a colonoscopy and biopsy on the growths, if indeed there are some.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Cures For Farts:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Technically, there is no cure for farting since it is not even an illness to begin with.  As has been mentioned at the start of this article, farting is a normal body process for a healthy human being.  Of course, if you wish to avoid that horribly intense stinky fart on a regular basis, there are some things you could take control of.  Here are 9 \u201ccures\u201d for farting, if you could even call it that:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Quit Smoking<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Edward-Elhhurst Health<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Whatever it is you\u2019re smoking, whether it be cigarettes, cigars, vapes or e-cigs, or any combination of those, people who indulge in this vice swallow excessive amounts of air.  While inhaling sends the air to the wind pipe (trachea) and down into the lungs, there is a portion of what you inhale that ends up down the esophagus and into your digestive system.  This extra gas will eventually accumulate and will have to be expelled in one way or another, and that one way is usually through a fart.  And since the gas was stinky and toxic going in, it\u2019s going to be just as stinky and toxic, or worse, going out.  If you want to lessen the frequency and the toxicity of your farts, quit smoking or vaping.  Aside from addressing your fart issues, quitting smoking will also benefit your lungs, your overall health, and your budget.

2. Avoid Gum And Carbonated Drinks<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Reader’s Digest<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Have you noticed you burp more, and fart more, when you drink carbonated beverages?  Same thing happens when you chew gum.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some people chew gum to address their bad breath.  Ironically, by chewing on gum, they take in excess air in their stomachs, and this results in bad gas going out the other end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As for carbonated drinks, they actually have extra gas dissolved into them.  Once ingested, the gas works its way out of liquid solution (it separates from the liquid), and builds up in the gut.  This gas will not be re-absorbed by the drink once in your stomach.  It will have to be expelled by either a burp or a fart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To avoid taking in excess air, avoid chewing on gum.  If you are trying to address bad breath, either use a mouthwash or just brush your teeth.  As for carbonated drinks, you may opt for other beverages instead, like water, tea, or non-fizzy juice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

3.  Eat Slowly<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
GOQii<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes there is extra gas in your gut because it entered through your mouth.  Like when you eat, it is inevitable that you will swallow some gas along with your food and drink.  There is no way to stop that.  However, you can lessen it.  When you eat slowly, chewing your food more, you are also squeezing out much of the excess gas before you swallow, so you end up swallowing less gas.  Same is true when drinking.  Drink slowly, as in sip, instead of gulp, and you will swallow less air in the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eating slowly and chewing your food more also has other health benefits.  For starters, you also tend to eat less because the feeling of fullness, which takes time to register from your stomach to your brain, will set in before you\u2019re able to pack in that much food.  Basically, what happens is that your stomach could already be full, but it takes time before your brain realizes this.  By eating slowly, you would give your stomach more time to tell your brain to stop you from eating before you fill your stomach to the brim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

4. Cut Back On Gas-Producing Food<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
NBC News<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Some foods produce more gas in the gut than others.  Usually, food with rich amounts of carbohydrates, or have lactose, fructose, or other complex sugars, or insoluble fiber, or starch, or any combination of those can be hard on the digestive system.  These foods are not bad per se, they\u2019re just harder for the digestive system to process.  They take longer to digest and end up fermenting in the gut, thereby producing gas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The foods that commonly produce more gas in the gut than others would be cabbage, broccoli, artichokes, potatoes, sweet potatoes, beans, pasta, wheat, and corn.  If you want to lessen your flatulence, lessen your intake of these foods, it might help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

5. Attempt An Elimination Diet<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Healthline<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The reality is that there are a lot of causes of farting, and food choices are just some of them.  Some people are unwilling to go to the extreme of cutting out all foods that cause them to fart.  Just as well, as you will likely end up with very few practicable food options anyway, and probably not get the full nutrition you need if you did so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An elimination diet is more an experiment than it is an actual diet.  The idea is to try to identify which foods cause you to be flatulent, by eliminating the possible culprits one by one. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first step is to identify which of your staple food choices are likely to be causes of your flatulence.  If you read back on this article, you will find a lot of those listed already.  Observe how you react to the elimination of those foods from your staple diet.  Once you have gotten your farting down to the level you are comfortable with (no pun intended), try adding back, one at a time, the foods you eliminated.  After each adding back of a food, observe if the new re-addition to your diet will cause your flatulence.  If it does, decide on whether to eliminate it altogether, just cut down, or keep eating it anyway.  Keep going until you have the diet you are comfortable with at the flatulence you are comfortable with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

6. Use Enzyme Supplements<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Scientific American<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Enzyme supplements?  Is there such a thing?  Yes, and they just might be able to help your digestive system process food more efficiently.  A particular enzyme supplement of choice would be one that contains an enzyme called a-galactosidase.  This enzyme helps breakdown complex carbohydrates within the small intestines, instead of passing these on to the large intestines to ferment and pass out as gas.  One brand of popular over-the-counter medication that contains a-galactosidase is Beano\u00ae.  When taken before a meal that has gas-producing foods, it lessens the chances of flatulence at the end of the meal.  Note, it can only lessen the flatulence, not eliminate it.  So, if your food for the meal has a high fiber content, or contains lactose or a food for which you have an intolerance, you are still likely to be farting, although maybe not as much.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

7. Take Probiotics<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
The Conversation<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

As more and more people are becoming aware of the importance of digestive health, probiotics are more and more becoming a popular product.  Nowadays, probiotics are advertised on mainstream media, come in a wider variety of brands and flavors, and are marketed in more points of sale as compared to two decades ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Probiotics are a health supplement targeted specifically towards the digestive system.  A probiotic is actually a good kind of bacteria, meaning bacteria that are beneficial to one\u2019s health.  This would be the opposite of bad bacteria which can make a person sick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By drinking or eating probiotics, you are increasing the ratio of good bacteria in your stomach as opposed to bad bacteria.  Good bacteria will help in more effective and efficient digestion, will fight the bad bacteria in your gut, and contribute to the general well-being of your stomach and intestines, and therefore contribute to your general state of health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With more effective and efficient digestion, and less proportion of bad bacteria, your digestive system will produce less gas, and therefore have less gas to fart out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

8. Address Constipation<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Johns Hopkins Medicine<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Constipation will make you fart a lot.  The accumulation of stool in your gut means your gut is also accumulating a lot of bacteria and fermentation, recipes to amass gas.  If you can address the constipation, you can reduce your flatulence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are a number of reasons a person could be constipated.  As mentioned earlier in this article, the most common reasons for constipation are either not enough fiber in the diet, or not enough water in the digestive system.  Knowing that these are the most common reasons, they are also the easiest to address. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first and easiest solution is to drink more water.  Keep hydrating over the course of a day, especially on a hot day or after a workout or intense physical activity.  The other solution is to eat more fiber-rich food.  These would usually be fruits and leafy vegetables.  If you still need more fiber other than from natural foods, there are over-the-counter fiber supplements available in the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

9. Be More Physically Active<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Lifestyle Habit<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Who would have thought that exercising would have a direct effect on lessening flatulence?  It actually is true though, physical activity can improve the health of your digestive system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Physical activity makes you thirsty more often, and therefore gives you the urge and mindfulness to hydrate more.  Remember that a well-hydrated body will also mean a well-hydrated gut, which helps you digest better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anyone who has done intense physical activity will probably have also noticed that exercise makes a person hungry.  This is actually because your physical exertion increased your metabolism, the burning up of your fuel stores, which comes from the food you eat.  This triggers the brain to generate more fuel to replace the ones you\u2019ve lost.  The body responds to the brain\u2019s cues by triggering the digestive system to digest faster and at higher capacity.  The digestive process is what produces the fuel for your body.  By burning more fuel (metabolizing), you are increasing your digestive capacity.  This means less food is left in the gut, so there are less chances of anything fermenting there and less chances of bad bacteria building up there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

When To See Your Doctor<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Dignity Health<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

There is no standard for how much a particular person should be farting, how frequently, or how bad it should smell.  The variables are so numerous, each person with particular circumstances different from another, that there is no reasonable basis for a universal standard of what is normal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, despite the absence of a standard for \u201cnormal\u201d, there are some indicators of what could be the presence of an abnormal condition or an illness.  For example, if you are constantly bloated, constantly passing gas, or maybe even have these accompanied by pain in the stomach, those would not be normal.  If you are regularly constipated, despite a fiber-rich diet and being mindful of staying hydrated, that might not be normal.  If you have frequent bouts of diarrhea or are losing weight because of it, that could be a warning sign.  If there is blood in your stool, that is definitely not normal.  Although these signs and symptoms do not necessarily mean anything serious or grave, it would be good to get checked by a doctor.  Maybe it\u2019s nothing, but it\u2019s best to make sure.  Go see a doctor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
