What Your Farts Say About Your Health

We all do it, but why exactly do we fart? And what can farting tell us about our health?

Why We Need a Better Way to Measure Farts
“Digestion depends on the subtle interactions between your genes, diet, metabolism, and the myriad micro-organisms inhabiting your body, each of which may leave its signature in gaseous by-products. A noticeable change in your farts’ peculiar recipe might therefore be a sign of serious diseases affecting any part of that process.”

Got Gas? It Could Mean You’ve Got Healthy Gut Microbes
“We know that air often comes after eating nutrient-packed vegetables, such as cabbage, kale and broccoli. And researchers have found that fiber-rich foods, like beans and lentils, boost the levels of beneficial gut bacteria after only a few days, as we reported in December.
So all this got us wondering: Could passing gas, in some instances, be a sign that our gut microbes are busy keeping us healthy?”

“Regular farting is a sign that you're consuming enough fiber, and have a healthy collection of bacteria in your intestines. But what do the subtle variations in the smells and frequency of your farts — the "flavor notes," if you will — mean? Read on to find out.”

when I'm sick or have had antibiotics because of being sick I have terrible farts, especially amoxycilin. Amoxycilin makes my WHOLE BODY stink. My gut bacteria die off at levels that are high enough to give symbiotic yeasts a chance to go crazy. Usually I've found bathing with raw apple cider vinegar and/or drinking a diluted form of it causes the stench to subside.

All vinegar can seriously kill off fungi, I know, I've used it on mold with fabulous results. But apple cider vinegar also has enzymes in it that help break your food down, so there's less for the yeast to munch on. Because my skin bacteria seem to suffer too, and the most common yeast infections are on the skin (called candidasis) I also wash with it to keep that tamped down a bit as well.

I have bad asthma, and have to have a lot of dental work done as well so I've taken a lot of antibiotics over the past couple years because bronchitis tends to move into the already congested/weakened lungs. So I have an "i'm taking antibiotics" routine down to alleviate the discomfort and gas that come with it. And I beg every doctor that has to prescribe antibiotics "NO AMOXYCILIN, PLEASE I BEG YOU!"

My brother farts loud and constantly but I have never once smelled it. None of our family has. So its safe to say that although everyone farts, not all of us will produce bad odor with it.

When I saw the thumbnail and title I knew they weren't going to have one of the ladies do this video. Started watching and sure enough.

[ssamulageraldrobinson]

My FART is a real weapon of massive destruction! I too get worried of myself. Yet my eating habits aren't that mad.

[MultiHogy]

Seen many complex videos from experts, this one was clear, simple and very helpful!
