I put the link right here when you have great tips and tricks to help out with your gut help. So farts lingering in a room. Let’s answer all your questions. First question. Hey Dr. Islam, do farts actually say longer in your room for some reason? Well, the answer is yes. There are some farts that stay there for quite some time.

You can smell permeating the air, and there are some farts that go in quickly and get out very, very quickly. So it’s not in your head. It is a very common problem that people have, and it really depends on the composition. Yes, composition. I made a fart, a poop joke. But the composition of the gases in your fart, there is a chemistry reason for this. Generally, if there’s more hydrogen sulfide in the fart, it’s going to linger longer and just stay in the air a lot longer than other farts that have less hydrogen sulfide in them. And this all comes down to basically what you’re eating. Foods that are high and hydrogen sulfide things like meat, eggs, and beans, which are all known to make you fart, have a lot of hydrogen sulfite in them, and those farts will stay longer and permeate the air. Question number two, do certain foods make farting worse? Absolutely. Not only will foods make a difference when it comes to how long farts stay in a room, but also certain digestive conditions can contribute to that as well.

Conditions like lactose intolerance, IBS or ARO bowel syndrome, small intestinal bacterial go through SIBO and SOC disease can make it longer for farts to stay in the air and make it more potent as well. But there are certain foods which are known that cause worsening flatulence and have ’em stay in the air. Longer. Sugars like glucose, lactose and fructose are known to cause gut issues.

Beans like kitty beans, black beans, pinto beans, beverages like apple juice, and milk, mainly because of the sugars in them. Dairy products like cheese, ice cream, fruits that are known to be notorious include things like apples, pears, and prunes. Sugar alcohols found in sugarless gums or sweeteners like xylitol, manitol, sorbitol. These are sugars that are very difficult to digest and cause an explosion like a bomb inside your gut.

And vegetables like asparagus, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cucumbers, onions. Now sometimes the room condition itself can make farts stay longer. So if you have a big room with a lot of ventilation, a lot of air, big fans, guess what? The farts gonna go away and maybe no one will smell them. We have a tiny room with no ventilation and just really hot and humid like a sauna or a closet that’s gonna make your fart say longer and more potent.

So word of advice, don’t fart in sauna because everyone will know. It’ll just linger and linger and linger. And sometimes the clothes you wear will affect how dispersing is that a word? Dispersed? The farts will be. So clothes do act as a filter. So if you wear loose clothes, every dresses, the gas will dispense in the air and actually be in the room longer.

It’ll be more of in the air. Now, if you’re naked, just butt naked and you’re farting away, okay, yes, all that farts gonna be in the air longer and more of it will be there as well. But if you wear clothes like jeans, which acts as a strong filter, it can absorb that fart. It could make it less smelly.

So big question here. What are fart etiquette should you say to somebody, Hey, I just farted. I’m sorry. Well, I am your etiquette doctor. Now I’m gonna tell you what you need to do. Keep in mind, everyone farts, okay, I fart. You fart. My friends fart. My kids fart. And everyone has done it in public.

I am fully going to admit this. I farden in public. It happens even to the poop guru, it happens to me as well. So don’t be ashamed. Don’t be alarmed if you are a person who farts in public, cuz it happens to everyone. It’s not a big deal. And I think it just really depends on how comfortable you are with the people who you’re around.

Now, if you’re in a very important job interview and you’re farting, okay, that may not be the best time for you to just draw attention to the fact that you just pass gas. But if you’re around friends or family, it’s not a big deal. People you know who cares? Just let them know, Hey, I passed some gas. People will get a joke out of it.

Not a big deal. So it really just depends on the situation. But keep in mind, everyone does it. Don’t feel ashamed if you have to do it too.
