Farts can leak out through your mouth if you hold them in, expert says

What happens when you hold in a fart? According to new research, it could be exhaled through your breath.

Clare Collins is a professor in nutrition and dietetics at the University of Newcastle, in Australia.

So what should you do if the urge to pass gas arises?

"The next time you feel a large volume of intestinal gas getting ready to do what it does, try to move to a more convenient location," Collins writes. "Whether you make it there or not, the best thing for your digestive health is to just let it go."

Walking helps release gas--from either end.
Especially the nether region.
My colleagues called it "cropdusting". :oops:

Whenever I have to let out a nasty fart I just go to the bathroom or out in public where nobody will know it was me :mrgreen:

Emitting a “Silent But Deadly” (SBD) one will protect your anonymity. Unless, only one other person is present. If so, it’s mandatory to have an old dog present.
