The sugars in the broccoli create large amounts of gas when they are worked on by the digestive acid.

It doesn't. It's very good for you, and low in carbs, so it's the other foods in your diet that would make you fat. no worries about broccoli. :)

A function of the fiber in the brocolli and the air you ingest when you eat it.

It's in the cabbage family. Other culprits are cabbages, onions, leeks, brussel sprouts.

Because you eat it too fast so you won't have to taste it, so there is a lot of air swallowed too.
