Can Dietary Habits Lead to Excessive Burping?
Yes, what you eat and drink can make you burp a lot. Foods like beans, fizzy drinks, and chewing gum might cause this.
Explanation
Eating and drinking certain things can lead to more burping. Certain foods such as beans, and FODMAP foods, can cause more gas in the stomach. Fizzy drinks like soda have bubbles that can make you burp.
Here are some things that might cause more burping:
- Carbonated drinks: These have bubbles that can make you burp.
- Chewing gum: Chewing gum can make you swallow more air, which can lead to burping.
- Eating too fast: Eating quickly can cause you to swallow extra air.
If you burp a lot and it bothers you, try eating slower and avoiding fizzy drinks. If it continues, you might want to talk to a doctor.
