A lot of us without knowing swallow air into our gastrointestinal tract. It can happen as you speak, eat or drink. When the amount of air trapped in the body is too high, it gets released in the form of farts. Farting isn’t that bad. Is it? (Picture Courtesy- Pixabay Images)

6. Are you a die-hard sweet-lover?

If yes, there’s bad news for you. Sweets contain either faux sugar or the natural ones. Faux sugars cannot be digested by our body; they remain in the gut and ferment. This can make you toot. Even the natural sugars can induce farting. (Picture Courtesy- ShutterStock Images)

We all in our lifetime have been constipated at least once. Either due to eating out from that roadside Chinese vendor or simply eating something stale.
