Answers:
Eating fast makes you swallow a lot of air due to the congestion of food in your esophagus that could keep your epiglottis flap open longer than it should be. also the foods you eat could have something to do with it as gas producing or heavily processed foods could give the unpleasant appearance of weight gain where there is none. Eating slower or taking smaller bites could help so could taking natural anti-gas digestive tonics.

A list of herbs that you can incorporate into you food to mitigate gas and bloating: Centuary, Boldo leaf, Mugwort, Cayenne pepper, Parsley, Fennel, Dill, Caraway, Peppermint, Spearmint, Sage, Basil and Catnip.

Aerophagia, or air swallowing, is a common cause of gas in the stomach. Everyone swallows small amounts of air when eating and drinking. However, eating or drinking rapidly, chewing gum, smoking, or wearing loose dentures can cause some people to take in more air.

Burping, or belching, is the way most swallowed air
