Rapid breathing or hyperventilating caused by laughter or anxiety can also cause you to swallow air. Some foods and drinks can also cause stomachache and burping, including foods high in starch, sugar, or fiber. Indigestion or heartburn may also lead to temporary abdominal pain and burping.

You're swallowing too much air... Balzora explains. It can also be caused by chewing gum, sucking on candies all day, or breathing through your mouth while you sleep. If you have gas in the morning or wake up feeling completely full, it might be because of the way you're breathing as you sleep.

Although a little trapped gas in the gastrointestinal tract is normal, stress or foods with lots of starch can result in more gas production—and large amounts of trapped gas bubbles can cause you to notice it. And the gas needs to escape your body somehow.

And the expulsion velocity—or how fast the air is exiting your body—plays a role, too. If the air is coming out faster, your fart would be more likely to sound louder. Plus, if swallowed air is triggering your fart—as is the case in the majority of farts—they tend to be louder (but less smelly), says Dr.

Most of the time, gas is no more than a minor annoyance. However, gas occasionally produces intense pain that makes the entire abdomen feel full and tender. This pain can radiate to the back, causing back pain and bloating. Minor gastrointestinal problems, such as stomach viruses, may also cause intense gas pain.

After a meal, bacteria in the intestinal tract break down the food into nutrients that the body can use. During this process, stinky hydrogen sulfide gas releases as a by-product of digestion for certain foods in the colon. That gas becomes trapped and farting is the only way for your dog to get it out.

Chewing gum can make you gassy. Any time you swallow air, it can lead to farts. Eating or drinking too fast, fizzy drinks, smoking, and chewing gum can make you do it. But the main cause is the breakdown of food in your gut. The medical name for it is flatulence.

Beans make us fart because they contain sugars and fibre that our bodies have a hard time digesting. When these sugars meet up with the bacteria in our large intestines, it produces gas and so we fart.

As well as being high in healthy fats, they are high in fibres which can cause gas when being digested by our gut flora. “As well as being high in healthy fats, they are high in fibres which can cause gas when being digested by our gut flora,” explained nutritionist Libby Limon.

The main reason being that your gut bacteria change during your period, which can make flatulence extra fragrant. The food you eat also contributes to the smell.

Farts accompanied by abdominal pain or discomfort after eating could be attributed to a food intolerance. “The prime example is if you drink milk or eat cheese and then feel cramps and have excessive flatulence that also smells like a manifestation of doomsday,” says Dr.
