  Burping Symptoms
Burping, also known as belching, ructus or eructation, is the release of gasfrom the digestive tract (mainly esophagusand stomach) through the mouth.
Burping is typically caused by eating or drinking too fast, and thereby swallowing (aerophagia) and subsequently expelling air, in which case the expelled gas is a mixture of nitrogenand oxygen.
Burps can also be caused by imbibing carbonateddrinks such as beer, soft drinks, or champagne, in which case the expelled gas is carbon dioxidefrom the drink itself.
