Australian Scientists Launch App to Study Flatulence Patterns

The CSIRO's 'Chart Your Fart' app aims to demystify flatulence by collecting data on frequency and characteristics.

The app was developed by Australia's leading scientific organization, CSIRO, to better understand flatulence habits.
A 2021 study showed that 60% of Australians experience excessive flatulence, prompting this research initiative.
Participants aged 14 and over are invited to record their flatulence data for three days, including details like smell and sound.
The app seeks to identify what constitutes a 'normal' fart profile across different age groups.
CSIRO emphasizes the naturalness of flatulence, noting its ties to diet, health conditions, and digestion processes.
