What causes belching and farting?

Belching and farting are considered to be caused by dietary factors, and may also be caused by indigestion, gastrointestinal dysfunction and other disease factors. 1. Dietary factors: eating some gas-producing foods, such as soy products, sweet potatoes, etc., these foods will be decomposed in the stomach to produce gas, resulting in belching and farting. 2. Indigestion: When indigestion occurs, gastrointestinal peristalsis slows down, and food accumulates in the stomach to ferment and produce gas, leading to belching and farting. 3. Gastrointestinal dysfunction: the patient’s gastrointestinal function is affected by the disease, belching and farting will increase, accompanied by a series of symptoms such as diarrhea and abdominal pain. When belching and farting occur, it is recommended to go to the hospital and ask the doctor to make a judgment, clarify the cause of the disease and actively treat it.
