What is Farting All About?
First of all, you should know that fart is pure gas. It is the air that you swallowed and just passed your intestine before setting itself free. There are gasses too that are made in the process of breaking down food in the large intestine. Oxygen, Carbon Dioxide, Methane, all of these gasses has to escape in the form of fart!
So, what makes it smell so bad? Well, sulfur and ammonia found in the large intestine were mixed with the gasses as they passed, thus giving it a foul smell. Another word for a fart is flatulence. Flatus is the word used in the medical world for gas that came from the intestinal tract. So if by chance you farted, just say “Excuse me, for the flatulence”. It does not sound gross, does it?
