Yet Another True Story About Stupid Studies:

Friday, May 07, 2004


Doctor, are you telling me that people who move around fart more?

Health News Article | Reuters.com:
NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - People who have problems with excess intestinal gas are often advised to exercise, even though the benefit is unproven. Now research from Spain suggests that this may be good advice.
In a small study, physical activity sped the clearance of excess gas.


Well I'll tell you what: People who bend over, and people who squat down quickly, and definitely people who jump up quickly will often "clear excess gas" more readily, easily and noisily than people at rest. Don't need no MD, PhD, or even a G.E.D. to tell you that. And this time there's no charge.
You come back to me with more farting questions, and I'm going to need to see the grant papers and some dinero!
