Definitely it's about "air gulping" much of the time, and the V.A. study supports that - air is 78% nitrogen. But for some of the foods (raffinose-rich) that supply fodder for this, there is also "Beano" - the enzyme alpha-galactosidase. Trust me, it works, so I hear... or don't hear.

For those who want to learn more, there is the University of Gas.
