The medical name of burping or belching is ructus or eructation. Burping is a process through which gas from the digestive tract is released through the mouth. A typical sound or smell is associated with the gas releasing process. Belching is a phenomenon which is common to all individuals and not restricted to a few numbers of people; also it is not the result of any disorder. Adults and even babies burp in order to remove any extra gas which has been swallowed. Burping helps to relax the muscles of abdomen as all the air in excess is expelled out of the body.

Food which is rich in cholesterol and fatty acids should be strictly avoided. This is because when fatty food is taken in, acidity is built in the digestive tract.
