It is no secret that the human body can produce a lot of all of this because of which you have to blush and embarrass. This also applies to burping, which is familiar to everyone. Of course, for most people, it occurs only when they ingest some specific foods inside or simply overeat. It gets worse when burping pains constantly and without any obvious reason. An even more unpleasant phenomenon is not a simple burping, but burping with rotten eggs. It sounds, of course, unpleasant, but in fact it is even worse.
What is burping
Belching is nothing more than the release of enough gas from the stomach through the mouth. The fact is that in the stomach, which is not subject to any serious diseases, there is always gas. This gas is able to stimulate the motor, as well as the secret function of the stomach. Usually this gas comes out completely unnoticed. However, if under any circumstances you swallowed large amounts of air into the stomach , this will immediately lead to an increase in pressure inside it, a reduction in its muscles, as well as a relaxation of the sphincter (flap) located between the stomach and the esophagus and the compression of that sphincter, which is located between the stomach and duodenum. All this will cause belching with air.
Healthy people belching does not bother often. In general, it is worth noting that it can be a symptom of a disease of the liver, intestines, gall bladder or stomach. Sometimes burping can have a very bad smell. This refers to belching with rotten eggs. People who have had this ailment know how unpleasant it is.
Belching with rotten eggs: causes
The reason for such an unpleasant odor, as a rule, is the most ordinary hydrogen sulfide. It is a gas that is obtained from sulfur-containing proteins that may be found in certain products. Hydrogen sulfide begins to be produced at the moment when these proteins begin to break down inside our body.
A lot of sulfur is found in the following products:
- red meat;
- milk-based products and milk itself;
- some vegetables: mustard, parsley, beets, sweet potatoes, tomatoes and some others;
- coffee, as well as tea;
- bananas and avocados;
- soybeans, beans, lentils;
- walnuts, almonds.
Belching with rotten eggs can be caused by the presence of intestinal giardia. These are such unicellular parasites, which in some cases are harmless, and in some cases cause various problems. Belching with rotten eggs is one of them.
Of course, intestinal bacteria are part of the standard intestinal microflora. Problems with them begin when their number increases too much. The result of all this is flatulence, bloating and other similar problems and, of course, belching with rotten eggs. Troubles with these bacteria threaten those people who suffer from intolerance to fructose or lactose.
Belching with rotten eggs: treatment
First of all, you will have to limit yourself in the consumption of those products, the list of which is given a little higher. The smell will soon weaken or stop altogether, but you should not stop there, since you still need to find the cause of the burping.
If you suspect celiac disease, it is recommended to go on a diet that completely eliminates rye, barley, and wheat products. In the event that not only burping with rotten eggs, but also heartburn, stomach pains and so on, tormentes, it is recommended to consult a doctor who will send you for a Heliobacter test.
Giardia is treated with special antiparasitic drugs. An effective folk remedy for them is the most ordinary garlic.
Finally, I want to say that a doctor’s examination is necessary no matter what the cause of this ailment is caused.
