Does Farting Burn Calories? – Opera News
[ad_1]
According to Healthline, farts are intestinal gas which is sometimes referred to as flatulence. Research has shown that you might fart when you gulp a lot of air when chewing and swallowing. These are the main ways air can enter your body.
Bacteria in the colon which are working endlessly to break down food can also make you pass out gas. If gas forms in your intestines and you don’t burp, it will travel through your intestines and out of your body.
There have been lots of theories on the possibility of farting burning calories and that is what I want to talk about in this article.
Research has shown that the only way you will burn a few calories when farting is if you strain to do so and that is not healthy or normal. If you strain when you fart, the calorie you burn is insufficient (maybe one or two calories). It’s not enough to make any difference in your health.
However, you should not bank on farting to lose weight. It should not be used to replace consuming healthy foods and exercising regularly.
