When there is excess air or gas in our stomach, we get rid of it through burping.
Burping is usually a normal body process that enables air to be brought up and released from the stomach. This produces a distinctive sound. Although burping is perfectly natural, it can cause embarrassment and discomfort.
Every time a person swallows fluid or food, air is also swallowed. Excess air may be swallowed when an individual eats or drinks too quickly, talks while they are eating, smokes, ingests hard sweets, chews gum, or drinks fizzy drinks, for example. The unconscious swallowing of air is referred to as aerophagia.
In addition to this, when good bacteria present in our intestines break down the undigested food, they produce various gases. These gases sometimes move upwards to the stomach, thus leading to a burp.
