“when you hold in a fart there's a percentage of that fart Vapor which will diffuse through the walls of the colon through the walls of the intestine and eventually it will go to your blood bloodstream and all the blood circulates and eventually goes to the lungs where the waste products are then exhaled out.”

“a lot of the burps are a byproduct of air swallowing so if you chew a lot of gum you are swallowing lot of air you drink a lot of sodas and fizzy drinks you're again swallowing a lot of air and the sort of carbonated gas that you're in sort of ingesting and lastly there will be a percentage of gas that your bacteria or the various microbes in your gut microbiome will produce and they can May their make their way Upstream as it were and they could also be a result of acid reflux as well.”
Main Takeaways:

“there's actually a couple of hormones uh one hormone in particular called kyin we can call it cckk for short and cckk actually delays gastric emptying and slows down how much your stomach empties into your small intestine so that hormone is increased if you eat foods that are high in fat or spicy foods so if you eat spicy foods the chemical capsacin in spicy foods or chilies actually increases the production of cck chosy ainin so there's more stomach content and there's more likelihood that you can burp or have reflux same with fatty foods that stimulate cck production more burping more reflux.”
Main Takeaways:
- CCK (cholecystokinin) is a hormone that delays gastric emptying, affecting digestion.
