What is Borborygmi?

Borborygmi can be thought of as stomach growling, stomach gurgling, loud digestion noises, or simply noises emanating from the stomach.

Borborygmi is the sound of undigested carbohydrates within the digestive track or intestine. As the digestive system breaks down these carbohydrates, a large amount of gas and gas is created, causing a lot of noise, discomfort, and embarrassment. Some people generate more wind and noise than others, but the cause is always the same.

It is highly unlikely that you would experience this condition if you were on a high-protein, high-fat, low-sugar, low-carbohydrate diet. In recent studies, fructose has also been shown to be a major contributor to this condition which occurs in many fruits that are high in sugar and table sugar (refined sugars).

Some stomach rumbling (rumbling) is natural and happens to everyone, but some people experience serious cases that can be embarrassing, painful, frustrating, and difficult to prevent. To prevent this condition we need to know what causes it. This article focuses on the main causes of borborygmus, why it happens, and hopefully this article will help people avoid these ‘triggers’ that will help their condition.

The 5 main causes of borborygmus

1. high fiber grains: Foods such as cereals, oats, wheat and rye are major contributors to borborygmi. Foods like bread, porridge, and cereal are very common causes of loud stomach rumbling. These are not “natural” foods (compared to meat, vegetables, fruits, nuts, and seeds) and are therefore more difficult for the body to break down, and as such cause a lot of wind and noise. .
2. Fructose / Sugar: Fructose plays an important role in borborygmos, just like sugar. Fructose is found in many fruits. Eliminating high-sugar fruits from your diet can greatly reduce this condition. The best fruits to stir are apples, oranges, grapes, and any canned fruit. Despite being associated with a healthy diet, natural or concentrated fruit juices should also be eliminated.
3. Beans: Beans and legumes have been shown to cause borborygmil. Beans in particular are great gas-causing foods. Eliminate them from your diet and see if there is any improvement in your stomach rumbling.
4. unbalanced diet: This is an important factor in borborygmos. How is your current diet? You may think you’re perfectly fine and well balanced, but try keeping a food journal and I think you’ll be amazed. Try to eat only protein and vegetables at meals and don’t mix your fats and carbohydrates. Are you eating processed foods or bread? Are you eating junk food more often than you should?
5. Milk: Dairy products are also a big cause of this condition. This doesn’t apply to everyone (it doesn’t personally apply to me, but I know plenty of people that do), but milk intake in particular is worth reducing. How much coffee are you drinking, can you reduce your milk consumption in this way?

Summary

Bottom line: try to eat as natural as possible, make sure you know what’s going on in your body. Take a look at my article called Common Causes of Borbroygmi for a more complete write-up of this article. If you reduce these 5 key factors in your diet, you can begin to see the benefit.
