Everyone knows the sensations of rumbling in the stomach. And suddenly a loud funny sound is heard.
Involuntarily there is a desire to understand the reasons for this process. And most importantly - find out if there are ways to prevent an uncontrolled song of the body.
The mechanism of rumbling in the stomach
In 90% of cases, characteristic “singing” is arranged by the stomach due to hunger. The remaining 10% are due to various violations in the operation of the gastrointestinal tract. The main digestive organ is covered from the inside with a multitude of muscle fibers. Their wave-like contraction with a certain frequency (70-110 minutes) provides mixing of food. This contributes to its better dissolution by juices, facilitates absorption.
In the absence of food, internal processes do not freeze. The excreted juices continue to mix with gastric gases and a small amount of air that enters with ingestion. This interaction gives rise to an audible rumbling, which is suppressed only by the presence of food. In fact, the stomach sends an SOS signal to the cerebral cortex, reporting that there is no necessary “fuel” (food). The latter reacts in two directions at once. The brain receives a command to synthesize orexin. This substance prepares the digestive organ for food. Therefore, a wave of muscle contractions is launched. The second impulse comes from the hypothalamus, giving the person a feeling of hunger, stimulating him to eat something.
Causes
However, when the feeling of satiety is filled with languid bliss, why does rumbling happen anyway? It turns out that overeating also provokes this state. Excessive fullness inhibits normal digestion, complicates the operation of the gastrointestinal tract. Especially if before that there was a prolonged starvation (more than 4-5 hours).

Gassing Products
A similar pattern occurs when certain foods are consumed. Depending on individual tolerance, difficult to break down include: beans, freshly made muffins, cabbage, fruits, vegetables, sodas, alcohol, and dairy. They do not have to be abandoned. It is only necessary to take into account their ability to form gases inside and exclude the use on the eve of an important meeting.
Sometimes rumbling (in the intestine) indicates the presence of a disease. So, dysbiosis is characterized by a violation of the intestinal microflora. The lack of beneficial bacteria reduces the ability of the system to extinguish gases, absorb food, absorb the necessary elements by the walls. Other ailments characterized by sound symptoms include pancreatitis, gastritis, colitis, enteritis, and stone formation.
Pregnant women often complain of rumbling in the stomach. This is due to the restructuring of the body, which has to work for two. Increased progesterone production relaxes the inner walls and muscles, dulling pain. The accumulation of gases is worse eliminated.
In impressionable persons, grumbling in the stomach provokes strong emotions, stress, and excitement. In others, certain positions of the body (for example, horizontal) lead to these sounds. It is almost impossible to control such a state. Will have to come to terms with the uniqueness of their physiology.
Rumbling Prevention
To reduce the manifestation of such symptoms, it is important to pay attention to body signals. Knowing the subsequent reaction to "inconvenient" products, it is worth reducing their use. Careful and unhurried chewing of food facilitates its digestion by the juices of the stomach. Do not drink water for breakfast, lunch or dinner. It impairs the development of important secrets. By refusing to chew the gum, you can reduce the ingress of oxygen, which provokes sounds.
When identifying a gastrointestinal disease, you do not need to delay the trip to the doctor. The specialist will skillfully establish a diagnosis, select the right direction of treatment. After a while, the annoying rumblings will disappear. A regular exercise or sport will put in order the functions of all the organs involved in digestion.
