On the 4th April 2012, at Lecture
Room 3, Block I, Universiti Teknologi Petronas, Malaysia, I posted a
questionnaire among my fellow classmates entitled, “do you fart a lot? How many
times?” and mostly of the respondents positively to the question.
There
were 29 students present at that time, 28 were local and 1 was an international
student, ranging from the age 17 to 20 years old. Most of them are from the
engineering courses and the rest are from ICT and BIS. The question was
distributed in a circle, where the respondents would respond accordingly to
their turns.
From the results of my research, 52% of the students responded yes to
the questionnaire and some of them even provide the reasons why they do so. Some
mention when they have a stomach-ache or when they consume too much food. 14%
said no, this is probably due to their high metabolism, meaning they can digest
food perfectly. %3 didn’t understand the question and I couldn’t seem to
clarify why they didn’t understand the questionnaire. The question was fairly
simple. 10% gave irrelevant answers; probably they didn’t quite get the question
which requiring them to only give a simple yes or no. 21% responded “sometimes.”
Thus, in order for them who fart a lot to lessen the gas released,
should eat food that could make digestion easier and reduce consuming any gassy
food or beverages.
