In this episode of Nutrition Science Bites, Prof Clare and Ilyse discuss the science behind farting, including what happens when you hold in fart gas, the types of gases produced, and how diet influences gas production. They discuss the role of sulfur-containing foods, the effects of exercise on farting, and even the impact of spicy foods. The conversation is both informative and humorous, shedding light on a universal bodily function that many find amusing yet sometimes embarrassing.
