One say i just have to stay/remain standing after eating or do some exercising, another say it’s the coffee thing (i don’t drink coffee anyways so scratch that), or lactose intolerance?me?

Borborygmus (pronounced /bɔː.bəˈɹɪɡ.məs/; plural borborygmi) is a rumbling or gurgling noise that occurs from the movements of fluid and gas in the intestines.

Does it mean,what?

I’am not alone!

It sounds like the coffee could be the problem. And if this is the case you may find that Energy drinks have the exact same effect.

Top 5 Causes of Borborygmi

High Fibre Grains: Foods such as grain, oat, wheat and rye majorly contribute to borborygmi. Foods such as bread, porridge and cereal are very common causes of loud stomach noise. These are not ‘natural’ foods (when compared to meat, veg, fruit, nuts and seeds) and so it is more difficult for the body to break down and as such causes a lot of wind and noise

Fructose / Sugar: Fructose plays a big part in borborygmi, as does sugar. Fructose is found in many fruits. Removing high sugar fruits from your diet can greatly reduce this condition. The best fruits to remove are apples, oranges, grapes and any tinned fruit. Despite being associated with a healthy diet natural or concentrated fruit juices should also be removed.

Beans: Beans and Legumes have shown to cause borborygmil Beans in particular are big gas causing foods. Remove these from your diet and see if there is any improvement in your stomach noise.

Unbalanced Diet: This is a major factor in borborygmi. What is your current diet like? You may think that it is perfectly fine and well balanced but try writing a food diary and I believe you will be shocked. Try only eating protein and vegetables at meals and not mixing your fats, and carbohydrates. Are you eating processed foods or bread? Are you eating junk food more often than you should?

Milk: Dairy products are a big cause of this condition also. This does not apply to everyone (it personally didn’t apply to me but I know many people that it did) but it is worth reducing your intake of milk in particular. How much coffee are you drinking, can you reduce your milk intake this way?

How to Prevent Gurgling Intestines

Gurgling intestines can only be prevented through maintaining a proper diet. Here are some tips enlisted to prevent gurgling intestines.

Some foods like wheat, onions, sugar and coffee should be taken in moderate amounts. If taken in high amounts they aggravate the condition.

Do not consume water while eating. Cut down carbonated beverages as they increase the amount of air into the stomach.

Avoid taking food in a hurry. Chew the food properly. Do not talk while eating as it may also help in swallowing air into the stomach.

Avoid over-eating and at the same time do not make a habit of being on an empty stomach.

Take shorter meals with short intervals than taking in a large meal at a time.

Hence it is very important to maintain a healthy and proper diet. See to it that you eat right food stuffs, avoid soft drinks, junk foods, etc. Drink much water as it keeps away gurgling sounds in intestine and also many stomach related disease conditions.
