What your farts can reveal about your health

What your farts can reveal about your health

The common name for "intestinal gas" is the "fart" that we all cover our noses for. It is a kind of human waste gas that is discharged from the body through the anus. Healthy people fart varying numbers of times a day, with a normal person farting 5 to 10 times a day. The waste gases such as nitrogen, hydrogen sulfide, and ammonia produced by the decomposition of residual food by bacteria in the intestines are mainly excreted from the body through farting, which is good for the human body and is also a magic weapon for the human body to self-regulate. There is a saying in Hunan that goes "People who laugh at farts have no ambition", which can be regarded as a way to justify farting.

It has been medically proven that farting can help us understand the condition of our stomach and intestines. No farts are not necessarily a good thing, too many farts may be a bad thing, and smelly farts may lead to trouble. Next, let’s learn about the things about farting.

No fart

People who don't fart often have some symptoms, such as abdominal pain, bloating, constipation, increased or absent bowel sounds, sound of gas passing through water, etc., and may also have intestinal obstruction. In addition, people who undergo abdominal surgery will experience reflex inhibition of intestinal motility, accumulation of gas and fluid in the gastrointestinal tract, and inability to fart.

What a fart

A normal person farts 5-10 times a day, expelling about 500 ml of gas. When the amount of farts is much more than usual, you may have stomach diseases such as indigestion, gastritis, peptic ulcer, as well as liver, gallbladder, and pancreatic diseases. In addition, it may also be due to dietary reasons, such as eating too many beans, potatoes and protein foods, or habitually swallowing too much and inhaling more air. These situations are not diseases and do not require treatment.

Stinky fart

If your farts are extremely smelly, it may be due to indigestion, excessive intake of acidic meat or food, or gastrointestinal bleeding, blood stagnation in the intestinal cavity, or inflammation in the intestines such as bacillary dysentery, amoebic dysentery, ulcerative colitis, hemorrhagic enteritis, etc.

In addition, in the late stages of malignant tumors, due to the erosion of cancerous tissue, the corruption of protein, and the action of bacteria, the farts will also smell very smelly. Sometimes, eating too much pungent foods such as garlic, onions and leeks can make your farts smell bad, but there is no need to worry.

It can be seen that the degree of fart odor is not only related to the food eaten, but also closely related to a person's physical health. Therefore, one should always pay attention to one's "fart affairs" and use it as a mirror to observe one's own health status.
