Who is healthier, a person who farts a lot or who doesn't fart much? Maybe it's different from what you think
Everyone farts. Farting is a normal physiological phenomenon. Some people fart frequently, and some people fart less.
Farting openly in a crowd can be embarrassing. Imagine that in a quiet public place, someone farts suddenly, which will immediately attract people's attention, and the person who farted will inevitably feel embarrassed and wish to escape from here immediately.
Most people will hold their farts in places with many people, and then release them in places with few or almost no people. Some female friends are more concerned about their own image, farting casually in public will completely destroy their image.
Is it normal for everyone to fart?
I don't know if you fart often in your life. According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, a normal person does not fart more than 10-18 times a day on average.
The gas in the human intestinal tract is about 150-2000 ml, and the human body will discharge these gases in the form of farting, and hiccups are also one of the ways to discharge.
If a person sticks to a healthy diet, there is nothing wrong with his body. The amount of gas released every day is about 400~2400ml, which is normal. In addition to gas that can be felt like farting, there are some gases that cannot be felt when they are discharged.
For example, when going to the toilet, some gas in the body will be discharged inadvertently, and the human consciousness cannot perceive it, so the number of farts will not be counted.
If a person farts more or less frequently, attention should be paid at this time, it may be a sign of some diseases in the body.
Why do some people fart so often?
Some people in life like to fart, fart frequently. what is the reason?
- Food reasons
Some foods have exhaust effect, such as white radish, onion, chestnut and so on. These foods contain more starch and more gasifying enzymes. After entering the stomach, it reacts with gastric acid and produces a large amount of carbon dioxide after combination.
The human body needs to excrete these carbon dioxide, so after eating these foods, people will inevitably have the desire to fart and increase the number of farts.
- Unhealthy eating habits
Food can increase the number of farts, and unhealthy eating habits can also affect the number of farts. A person often wolfs down. Overeating, when you eat, you will carry a lot of gas into your body. Due to the continuous accumulation of gas in the stomach, the human body is prone to abdominal distension. At this time, the body will also have the desire to fart, resulting in an increase in the frequency of farting.
- Intestinal flora imbalance
An imbalance of intestinal flora in the human body can also increase the number of farts. The human gut contains a large number of bacteria, both good and bad. Under normal circumstances, the two are in a state of dynamic balance and keep healthy. When the intestinal flora is out of balance, the numbers of the two flora are inconsistent, and harmful bacteria increase, a large amount of gas will be produced during activities, which will be excreted in the form of farting.
Long-term imbalance of intestinal flora can easily lead to chronic gastroenteritis and even other more serious gastrointestinal diseases.
- Long-term constipation
Constipation is a common problem. Constipated sufferers suffer greatly, with feces accumulating in the abdomen, causing bloating and abdominal pain. If the feces in the body are not discharged in time, the feces accumulated in the intestinal tract will produce a large amount of gas under the fermentation of the bacteria and temperature, and the human body will also be discharged in the form of farting.
Why do some people fart so little?
- Healthy diet
Some people fart less frequently because they usually eat a healthy diet, their gastrointestinal state is normal, and their intestinal flora is relatively balanced.
Second, the cause
Some gastrointestinal diseases can also reduce the frequency of farting, such as hemorrhoids, intestinal tumors, intussusception, volvulus, intestinal obstruction, etc., which will block the intestinal tract to a certain extent, hinder the discharge of gas, and reduce the frequency of farting.
Three, silent fart
Some people seem to fart less, but they are not. These people may just pass silent farts in their lives, or fart when no one is looking, leading people to think that they rarely fart.
People who fart a lot are healthier than those who fart less often.
From the above content, we can know that people who fart a lot and people who fart less often may have hidden dangers. Under normal circumstances, the number of farts per day will remain at about 10 to 18 times. When the frequency of farts is lower or higher than these times, it may be that there is a problem with the body. You should pay attention to observation and go to the hospital for medical treatment if necessary.
How to keep your gut healthy?
- Drink plenty of water
You can usually try to drink more water. Keep the amount of drinking water at about 1500-2000 ml, which can accelerate blood flow in the body, promote the body to expel various garbage toxins, and maintain the balance of intestinal flora.
Second, pay attention to diet.
Eat less high-sugar, high-salt, and high-greasy foods, eat more light and nutritious foods, and avoid wolfing down and overeating when eating, and try to chew slowly.
