Just like protein, dairy products have a high thermogenic effect. Your body has to work harder to digest and process dairy items. Dairy products like cheese are even harder to digest. It’s no coincidence farting is also called cutting the cheese. If farting is a problem for you, cut the cheese.

With the kind of processed food we consume these days, it’s no surprise a lot of people are lactose intolerant. Lactose intolerant people can turn into farting machines if they consume anything containing dairy.
