Commonly known as farting, passing wind, or having gas, flatulence is a medical term for releasing gas from the digestive system through the anus. It occurs when gas collects inside the digestive system, and is a normal process.
Certain foods have a tendency to produce more gas due to the action of intestinal bacteria. These foods are usually carbohydrates and indigestible fiber which may not be digested or absorbed by the body.Carbonated beverages may also contribute to flatulence if gas is not passed out with a belch.
