Every day, the body will produce 1 to 3 pints of intestinal gas. This gas is made up of carbon dioxide, methane, hydrogen, and oxygen. If the gas is unpleasant then it means there are compounds like ammonia and hydrogen sulphide.

The intestinal tract will digest the food we eat which includes starches, cellulose, and sugar. When the sugar we take does not break down correctly, then it can ferment, and then gas is produced. The gas comes out from the body through the rectum and this way the gas will not accumulate in the body. If that happens, it can lead to cramping.
