Burping


Quote  |  Reply
Hey guys. I'm new (and looking for friends ;D). but I have a question:
It seems that whenever I diet, I notice myself having to burp a lot. I am not drinking soda. ;) Do you guys notice a similar response in your bodies? Anybody have an idea as to why it's happening?

are you eating a lot of veggies and whole grains? it could be gas production due to the digestion of the complex carbs. they're good for you, but they can cause gas! I have a similar problem... unfortunately not as pleasant as burping! ;)
Only when I eat too much soy... as in Kashi GoLean anything!
isn't burping a compliment to the cook ? lol
I guess it could be from vegetables... Very interesting. Also, is it common to feel some bloating?
i think often burping comes from literally taking in too much air.  Maybe your eating to fast.  I know for me, sometimes when i am eating less then i want, i have to fight the urge to just scarf it down.  Maybe take smaller bites and eat slower.

Sometimes you can take charcoal pills to help with gas and bloating associated with lots of vegetables... they're available at any health-food store or pharmacy.

I'll add you as a friend because you burp... I will call you Poomba...  :-P
carcoal pills? interesting...
Added you back, :)
I'm having this problem right now! Yasue, have you resolved it? I'm thinking it might be the vegetables thing because I became a vegetarian a couple of months ago and have been trying to incorporate more vegetables into my diet. Also, sometimes when I work out for a long time I'll start burping too. I don't know if it has anything to do with excercise or me breathing wrong. Or maybe its from swallowing air because I drink a lot of water when I do the treadmill and eliptical.
Is it possible that you are not eating enough?  Also do you find yourself chewing more gum?? 
 Oh my Gosh. I thought I was the only one out there. Anyhow, Yes! I've told everyone that I know... It's a good sign. I'm the healthiest I've ever been. 5'2 105lbs.  But, I burp all the time now When I'm working out... after I've ate. I'm a burping machine nowadays. But, I never was in the past. I think it's your body saying " good job, keep up the hard work. " And it's healthy enough to burp finally... Lol
