What would happen to your body if you held in all your farts..
You’ve definitely held in a fart (or 500) in your lifetime. We all do it. But what are the health implications of refusing to pass gas? In a recent YouTube video, the creators of the channel What If delved into what actually happens if you hold in your farts. And, boy, is this knowledge we all need. The average person farts 12 and 25 times a day, according to the video, expelling enough gas to fill a one to two liter soda bottle each day. This forms as part of the digestion process, commonly caused by the air you swallow by eating, drinking, and smoking. It can also be produced when bacteria break down food in your colon.
Another possibility is that you could develop swollen and inflamed pouches that form along the intestinal wall in a condition known as diverticulitis. This unsavory condition can lead to diarrhea, fever, and bleeding from the rectum.
