An average person farts about 10 to 20 times a day and there are various reasons behind this. While eating food, we also swallow air. So, this air either comes out as burps or it travels through the entire intestinal tract and escapes as a non-smelly fart. So, do you know what makes some farts stink? High fiber foods like beans and broccoli have a sugar called raffinose. Humans lack the enzyme to digest raffinose. So, when undigested raffinose enters the large intestine, trillions of good bacteria break it down and release gases like methane, hydrogen sulfide, etc., which makes fart stinky. Some people even lack the enzyme that digests lactose. So, when these people eat cheese or ice creams, they end up releasing stinky farts.
