I f**t 4-12 times every day. Is that unusually high for a 40 year old man? What causes it and what can I do?

Answer 1

you count how many times you f**t? lol, sorry just I just had to say it, anyways, it kind of all depends on the foods you eat as well

Answer 2

What does your doctor say? Mine said it was normal for humans to get gas as a product of digestive activity. I say that's a general answer, and also everyone is unique even though there are 'averages, medians or norms'. That seems like a lot to me. This is something that much more specific data is needed to be able to tell you what causes yours, and all you have provided is your age, which may not even be a significant factor...but this is a question you and/or your doctor can answer once you address many questions such as what you eat, what you weigh, your activity, your lifestyle/ stress level, conceivably many factors that need to be checked before a solution could be found. Do some research on gastric problems and flatulence and possibly get a physical exam to really solve your problem.
