Answer 1

i've heard it can also be cause by swallowing too much air- usually with drinking or eating, i believe.

Answer 2

The word, “borborygmus” (plural, “borborygmi”) is actually an
onomatopoeia; a word created to sound like the noise or event that it
represents. The Ancient Greeks were the first to use the word in
effort to describe the sound made by a hungry stomach.

Borborygmi occur most often when we are hungry, although it does occur
at times when you may not "realize" that you are hungry. In response
to to this hunger, the stomach prepares for the anticipated feeding my
retracting muscles designed to force material which has already been
partially digested farther into the intestine and push digested food
farther down into the colon in preparation for disposal. This activity
causes small pockets of water and air to form in the stomach and
intestines and the resulting noises are caused by gases and materials
being squeezed between the folds and around resident material. The
intensity of sound differs according to the intensity of the
contractions and the contents of the stomach and intestines.

If you want to try and duplicate the noise in an effort to better
understand how this happens, try streching the opening of a balloon
while the air is escaping. The result will be higher pitched when the
opening is pulled tighter, and lower pitched as the tension on the
opening is decreased. To create an even more accurate demonstration
you can perform this experiment while holding the ballon just under
the surface of water or other moist material.

Borborygmi is not an inherited trait or condition. Sensitivities that
sometimes cause it, however, can be. It is possible (whether you
realize it or not) that you suffer from alactasia (or lactose
intolerance) – an inherited condition causing the lack of the enzyme
needed to digest milk sugar. Try modifying your diet and see if you
get better results. If you eliminate milk and milk products (cheese,
creams, etc.) from your diet for a few days you may note a dramatic
drop in the frequency (no pun intended) in the noise or it may stop
altogether. Otherwise, for the time being at least, if this
embarrassing situation happens to you in church, the library, or some
other quiet setting where others can hear it, a temporary solution
that sometimes helps is to apply a bit of pressure to your abdomen or
simply slip a cracker or cookie into your mouth to “fool” your stomach
into believing that there is more to come. Both of these solutions
seem to work for most people.

Answer 3

Those are some of the symptoms but usually gastritis includes diarrhea and cramping.
See if there is an increase when you eat dairy - like 15 mins later. Some nationalities are up to 90% lactose intolerant - meaning not enough enzyme is produced in the GI tract to digest the lactose. Fortunately, there are over the counter medications made just for this - found with the Pep-to, antacid meds.

Answer 4

Your body is simply moving food and fluids through your body. Peristalsis makes your intestines squeeze along the length here and there, causing some food to go forward, and some to move backward a little, smushing and mixing. Gases are created by decomposing food (mainly done by digestive enzymes from saliva in your mouth and juices in your stomach/intestines. After the foods are broken down, bacteria in your large intestines breaks it down further by eating it, and that bacteria literally poops and farts, creating gasses and odor. A good way to get rid of body gasses is to simply....drink more water. It fills every crevice of the intestines and forces any excess gases out.

Answer 5

You need to see a Fartolgist.
What you say is true: The gurlging is gas trying to come out. Let it be so, or be very uncomfortable.
Just don't light any matches.
Gas can be caused by many things, from a bad meal to a bunch of other things. If Tums or Rolaids don['t bring it down soon, eat a bunch of Yogurt, and cabbage, brown rice and beans, to bring proper bacterialogical flora back.
And then if not, see your Fartologist, who will keep your Genie in a bottle until you pay through... The Nose.
