🤔 WHY DO WE BURP AFTER DRINKING SODA?
We burp after drinking soda because of the carbon dioxide gas (CO₂) that's added to make it fizzy.
🧪Soda is carbonated
Soda contains dissolved carbon dioxide gas under pressure, which gives it that bubbly fizz.
🥤You drink the soda
As the soda enters your warm stomach, the gas starts to come out of the liquid and form bubbles.
💨Gas builds up
This gas creates pressure in your stomach — kind of like inflating a balloon inside you!
😮💨Your body releases the gas
To relieve the pressure, your body pushes the gas back up through your esophagus as a burp!
💡 Fun Facts
🧃 Drinking with a straw or too quickly makes you swallow more air — more gas = more burps!
🤷 Everyone burps differently depending on their digestion and habits.
So, next time you burp after soda, remember — it's just science in action! 🧬✨
