Question:

What cause to to blurp often suddenly?


Answers:

Burping, also known as belching, ructus, or eructation is the release of gas from the digestive tract (mainly esophagus and stomach) through the mouth. It is often accompanied with a typical sound and sometimes an odor.

Burping is typically caused by eating or drinking too fast, and thereby swallowing and subsequently expelling air, in which the expelled gas is a mixture of nitrogen and oxygen. Burps can also be caused by imbibing carbonated drinks such as beer, soft drinks, or champagne, in which case the expelled gas is carbon dioxide from the drink itself. Gastroesophageal reflux disease can also cause involuntary burping. Some studies have suggested that aerophagia is not the primary culprit but that burping is in fact a learned behaviour.

The sound of burping is caused by the vibration of the cardia as the gas passes through it. The current Guinness world record for the loudest burp is 118.1 decibels, set by Paul Hunn from London, England in 2000. (This would be noticeably louder than a chainsaw at a distance of 1 meter.)
