What causes really abnormally bad gas?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bad gas: There are 2 major forms of bad gas. If you're complaining about belching/burping, it's often due to ingesting too much air while eating/drinking, often carbonated soda. If you're worried about farting/flatulence, it's more likely dependent upon what you've been eating. Beans are classic example.
