Soda can indeed refreshing especially when taken in a cold state. But usually peoplewill belch after consuming soft drinks. Why is that?

Burp is one mechanism the body to remove excess gas in the digestive system. When aperson swallows food and drinks, it also includes a small amount of air.

Some drinks, especially carbonated soda containing gases such as carbon dioxide. Airbubble is already incorporated into the water during the production process, but there was still no carbon dioxide which are not incorporated.

The more soda you drink too much it will be more carbon dioxide bubbles that enter thedigestive system. When the amount of this gas has been collected then the body shouldremove it. Burp is one way to liberate it, as quoted from the LIVESTRONG.

If a person drinks soda quickly, then the amount of air swallowed participating will be increased so that the amount of gas that enters the body will be more and cause pain orbloating in the abdomen.

Sometimes air bubbles tertelah large enough so that creates a feeling of discomfort inthe throat, and pressure from the incoming air bubbles can also be felt in the chest orabdomen.

Consuming soft drinks with a straw can also increase the size and amount of swallowed air bubbles. This condition would make a person more burp after drinking soda.

To reduce the amount of gas is ingested, try drinking soda slowly without a straw, avoidgassy foods like cabbage, broccoli, do not chewing gum, eating or smoking because itwill make a person to swallow more frequently.
