Farts Can Leak Out Through Your Mouth If You Hold Them?

What is a fart?

A fart is a kind of gas. Farting is a normal physiological phenomenon. The body produces intestinal gas as part of the process of digestion. Once this gas is inside the body, it needs to be released somehow.

Passing gas through the mouth is called BURPING

Passing gas through the anus is called FLATULENCE

The average person farts 15 times per day

What causes gas?

• Air that you swallow

• Breakdown of undigested food by bacteria in the large intestine

Why do I fart so much?

1. Eat too fast

2. Talk while we eat

3. Often eat chewing gums

4. Eat too much gas producing food

5. Lactose intolerance

Loud Farts are Not Smelly, Smelly Farts are Silent?

Loudness and odour of the farts are independent of each other

Why Are Some Farts Noisy?

The sound of your farts is affected by

1. How much gas has built up inside

2. The speed the gas is passed at

3. Tightness of the sphincter

Only 1% of Your Fart Actually Smells

99% of the fart was odourless gases like carbon dioxide, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, and methane. Only 1% of the gases expelled in farts smell bad. These include foul-smelling gases such as hydrogen sulfide. When you eat sulfur rich foods like egg and meat, your farts will smell worse because that food breaks down and creates hydrogen sulfide.

What Causes Smelly Farts

1. High-fiber Foods

2. Constipation

3. Food Intolerance

4. Medication

Farts can leak out through your mouth if you hold them?

When you block a fart from escaping, some of the gas can pass through your gut wall and be reabsorbed into your bloodstream. From there, it can end up being exhaled through your lungs, coming out of your mouth via exhaling.

Trying to hold it in leads to a build up of pressure and major discomfort. Instead of holding your fart in, it is better to let it go.
