gas. It is natural and is a result of swallowing air and also a normal breakdown of certain digested food by harmless bacteria.
Frequent belching is expressed by burping or passing it through the rectum. Most people pass gas about 14 times a day, the gas is made primarily of odorless vapor. The unpleasant odor of flatulence comes from bacteria in the large intestine that release small amounts of gas that contain sulfur.
