Bubbling, gurgling, rumbling: Loud bowel noises are mostly harmless, but uncomfortable.

Bloating can be relieved quickly with home remedies.

Munich – It is unpleasant, but completely normal: Many people are familiar with loud intestinal noises.

In public, however, most people are very embarrassed when their stomachs are rumbling.

It can also be annoying to painful if the stomach bloats.

Those affected are then worried, especially if it happens more frequently.

But usually loud bowel noises and flatulence are harmless and have various causes.

A bloated stomach can already be due to the fact that you "snapped" too much air while eating or ate too hastily.

If you also eat a lot of raw food, you may also have to struggle with intestinal problems due to the indigestible fiber.

Many people today have a lot of stress at work and in their free time, which in turn literally "stomaches" them.

Accordingly, psychological stressful situations can also promote digestive disorders.

Another reason is carbonated beverages, such as mineral water, soft drinks, and alcoholic beverages such as beer.

The carbonic acid irritates the intestines in particularly sensitive people and can also lead to physical complaints.

Gas and bowel noises?

What's behind it

The resulting bloating, also known as flatulence, is the body's response to get rid of the gas that builds up in the gastrointestinal tract as a result.

According to experts, about 15 farts a day are normal and harmless.

But in some cases there is a serious illness or food intolerance behind it.

The most common include:

  • Fructose intolerance (fructose intolerance)

  • Lactose intolerance (milk sugar intolerance)

  • Celiac disease (gluten intolerance)

The latter should be clarified with the help of tests by an internist or gastroenterologist.
