Time to start befriending your farts

You may have heard of a certain book about…flatulence. It’s called “No One Likes A Fart”, authored by the oh-so-funny Zoe Foster-Blake. In the story, poor little fart just wants to try and find a friend, but of course, everyone he tries to meet is not interested in befriending him due to his rather unpleasant odour. Luckily, like most fairy tales, the story has a happy ending. But this did get me thinking that even though the story line mimics the real world where farting is something we would rather not talk about and certainly avoid in public; this unwelcome gas is generally a positive sign of good gut health and should perhaps be embraced in a more welcoming manner.
