why do i pass so much gas lately in the morning?
Being regular may also be one of the reasons why gas can occur more frequently in the mornings, although for most, that is hardly a bad thing. WebMD mentions that contractions from the small intestine can actually cause gassiness and a noisy tummy, which most people refer to as a growling stomach.
There are two main causes of gas: swallowed air and the normal breakdown of undigested food -- especially sugar, starches, and fiber. Your body expels this gas through burps and farts. Everyone does it. In fact, when your body is healthy, it's normal to pass gas 14 to 23 times a day. Bloating can be caused by too much gas in the intestines, although you can also feel bloated and have a normal amount of gas.
