Hey, God gave us many gifts and two of the funniest are burping and farting. Now society has put it in our heads that farting and burping is impolite. OK, they're not the most pleasant sounds nor are they very nice to smell. But i have to say that making the noise is very fun. We're human, we were built this way, lets laugh a little, but if your going to make someone smell it make sure its not at the dinner table. I don't want to gag on a nasty beef and bean er. I want to be able to eat.  Air Power

Nothing.  Most people find burping disgusting, so this is probably a good thing.

A friend of mine back in college had this problem.  He took some vocal lessons.  One of the things they told him, is whenever he is driving in the car, or anything like that to read every sign he passes out loud.  There are always tons of billboards, and various signs along the roads.  By reading everything out loud, you become more comfortable with your rate of speach.  It may sound strange, but it actually works!  I would hope you would give it a try.  I wish you all the best of luck in overcoming your stammering.

You've probably experienced a muscle spasm in your leg or arm where your muscle contracts and relaxes uncontrollably.\n\nThe diaphragm is a muscle that controls breathing. When the diaphragm spasms, the opening between your vocal cords snaps shut to check the inflow of air and makes the hiccup sound.\n\nThe exact cause of the spasms is not known.

I think it is due to a spasm in your diaphragm. If you breathe in real slowly and then exhale real slowly a couple of times it can stop your hiccups.

Yes I do it too! Only mine sounds like a loud gurgle type sound in my throat. I hardly every burb but make this sound instead and it's quite embarrassing when it happens around other people and they're like "um what was that?" I just had a son 8 mths ago and after he finishes his bottle he'll do it too sometimes. I was so excited that he got this from me! I am not alone anymore!\n\nYou have to admit, it is pretty cool!!! If I drink pop I can do it over and over just by kind of swallowing a bit and trying to burp. You can feel a little "bubble" in your throat that slowly comes up to make the noise, so weird!

It is impolite and rude to burp.

i think it has something to do with a "flight or fight" syndrome. like when you get startled. except when you are nervous, you know there is no need to run and you really have no need to fight, so therefore, you laugh. some people stutter or get flustered, you laugh. nothing wrong with it, just maybe say excuse me, im a little nervous. if you are feeling pressure, explain that the person is making you uncomfortable and could they please back off.

"Hic!" You've just hiccuped for what seems like the tenth time since you finished your big dinner. Wonder where these funny noises are coming from? The part to blame is your diaphragm (say: die-uh-fram). This is a dome-shaped muscle at the bottom of your chest, and all hiccups start here.\n\nThe diaphragm almost always works perfectly. It pulls down when you inhale to help pull air into the lungs, and it pushes up when you exhale to help push air out of the lungs. But sometimes the diaphragm becomes irritated, and when this happens, it pushes up in a jerky way that makes your breath come out differently from how it normally does. When this irregular breath hits your voice box, you're left with a big hiccup.\n\nSome things that irritate the diaphragm are eating too quickly or too much, an irritation in the stomach or the throat, or feeling nervous or excited. Almost all cases of the hiccups last only a few minutes. Some cases of the hiccups can last for days or weeks, but this is very unusual, and it's usually a sign of another medical problem.\n\nYou've probably heard lots of suggestions for how to get rid of hiccups, and maybe you've even tried a few. Holding your breath and counting to 10 is one way some people can get rid of their hiccups; other people say that drinking from the "wrong" side of a glass of water is the way to become hiccup-free. Putting sugar under your tongue might work, too. And maybe the most famous treatment - having someone jump out and scare you when you're not expecting it - helps some people wave good-bye to their hiccups.

Yes mute means he can't talk. burping isn't talking, rather it's making a sound\n\nThe Digestive system breaks down the food we eat, extracting nutrients and assimilating them for use throughout the body. Proper digestive-system function is essential to maintaining good health and energy levels. The body requires nutrients from all three food categories (proteins, carbohydrates and fats) to survive.\n\nDigestive concerns are common to Americans. These include indigestion, heartburn, acid reflux, insufficient enzymes, stomach ulcers and stomach cramps.\n\nAfter food is chewed and swallowed, it passes through the esophagus and enters the stomach. The stomach secretes hydrochloric acid and certain enzymes to begin the breakdown and sterilization of the food. The stomach is particularly important to the digestion of proteins.\n\nTypically, the stomach will hold about a quart of food or liquid, but its muscular walls can expand to hold much more than this. The stomach is lined with a durable mucous coating that protects it from hydrochloric acid and other gastric juices. Ulcers form when a portion of this mucous lining wears thin, and the digestive juices aggravate the stomach.\n\nThe bulk of nutrient assimilation takes place in the small intestine. The Circulatory system carries nutrients from the small intestine to the cells of the body. The small intestine is lined with tiny fingerlike projections called villi and tinier cytoplasmic projections called microvilli. These villi increase the surface area of the intestine and allow for more efficient nutrient absorption.\n\nThe average adult's small intestine is 10-13 feet long, and about one inch in diameter. Because of the villi and microvilli, the total surface area of the small intestine is about 180 square meters, just smaller than a tennis court.\n\nThe first 10 inches of the small intestine is known as the duodenum; it is the most important section in digestion. Here, enzyme secretions from the pancreas and bile secretions from the liver mix with the food and break down carbohydrates, proteins and fats into smaller units. The body can assimilate these nutrients in smaller forms and use them for energy.\n\nThe duodenum also secretes lactase to digest milk products, and sucrase and maltase to break down sugars. The next sections of the small intestine are the jejunum and the ileum. In this combined 9-12 foot segment, an additional 2-3 liters of intestinal juices are secreted each day.\n\nBecause food particles have to be a certain size before they can be absorbed into the bloodstream, digestion and assimilation in this section can take several hours. The villi and microvilli absorb tiny nutrients that travel through the lymph vessels or into capillaries for transport to the liver. After the liver filters and processes these nutrients, they are sent throughout the body.\n\nThe pancreas is an important part of the digestive process, producing approximately three pints of digestive juices each day. These juices pass through the pancreatic duct into the small intestine. This organ also controls the amount of sugar in the blood by secreting two hormones, glucagon and insulin. Insulin and glucagon work as a check and balance system, regulating the body's blood sugar level.\n\nThe liver is also critical to digestion. It is located in the right side of the upper abdomen, under the diaphragm. This is the largest internal organ in the body, weighing about 3-4 pounds. The liver is composed of groups of cells called lobules. Anywhere from 50,000 - 100,000 lobules make up the liver, and each lobule has a central vein that drains blood into the hepatic veins, which eventually carry it to the heart.\n\nThe liver produces bile, which breaks down, or emulsifies, fats. Bile drains from the liver lobules into the branches of the bile ducts that lead to the gallbladder, where it is stored. All told, the liver performs more than 500 functions, many of them of a processing or stor

Because the density of helium changes the form of the soundwaves your vocal chords produce.\n\nIt is fun, but obviously it's bad whenever you breathe something other than oxygen!\n\nBye bye brain cells!

no burping is jsut gastric gas and even if there was gas from the drug the dosage would be too small.

a hiccup is caused by a spasm of the diaphragm. The diaphragm is the main muscle involved in breathing and the quick entry of air during a hiccup produces a sound as it passed through the pharynx.\n\nIt has nothing to do with the stomach

He heh, that made me laugh. Good question! I don't know, but I guess that the air has to go somewhere! I do know that swallowing too much air can make you feel bloated, so I would suppose it only has two ways to go, either as a burp or a fart!

if you cant talk, air is not passing thru your trachea
