Stomach gas basics

Stomach gas usually makes people think of flatulence, but there are actually several different kinds of stomach gas that cause people discomfort.

Everyone has stomach gas of one form or another, at one time or another. Since it tends to cause a certain amount of discomfort, it's usually expelled (discreetly, we hope) through the mouth or eventually, the rectum.

The gas that's normally referred to as stomach gas is usually comprised of odorless vapors like carbon dioxide, oxygen, nitrogen, and hydrogen. There's also methane sometimes.

It's normal for an adult human to produce 1 to 4 quarts of gas a day. Amounts can vary, of course, depending on the kind of food the individual has recently consumed. Normally, a healthy individual will expel gas of one form or another around a dozen times a day.
