Chart Your Fart Description
Whether they're loud, smelly, or just downright hilarious or embarrassing, everyone has their own unique relationship with flatulence. We get it and that's why CSIRO has developed "Chart Your Fart", a fun and informative way to delve into the fascinating world at the bottom-end of diet.
Our team have done a lot of work in diet and gut health. Bloating, and changes in gas production are common complaints and talking points. As part of our ongoing efforts in health and wellbeing research, the CSIRO Chart Your Fart project aims to gather valuable insights into the flatulence patterns of Australians. We want to hear it – even the silent ones. By recording them through our app with as much detail as possible – from stench levels to linger time – you'll be contributing to a groundbreaking citizen science initiative that allow us to answer the question we hear time and time again – how often do people fart?
In October, we are inviting you to take part in this collaborative project. All we need from you is 2 weekdays and 1 weekend day of recordings (or more if you want). This should be enough to let us see what flatulence looks like across the nation. We will also be asking you to put in some information about yourself, so we can see if men really do do it more than women, for example. In November, we will be summarising data into a report that we will share on our page (website).
