ShareFlatulence is the presence of a mix of gases known as flatus (lat.
flatus = "wind") produced by symbiotic bacteria and yeasts living in the gastrointestinal tract of mammals.
The average human releases 0.5 to 1.5 litres (1 to 3 U.S.
pints) of flatus in 12 to 25 episodes throughout the day.
Certain spices counteract the production of intestinal gas.
