The primary cause for burping is the ingestion of air. Various factors can heighten air swallowing:

* Intake of [[Carbonated beverages|carbonated beverages]]
* Digesting gas-producing foods like [[Beans|beans]] or certain [[Vegetables|vegetables]]
* [[Talking|Talking]] while eating
* [[Smoking|Smoking]]

In addition to the above, certain medical conditions like [[Gastroesophageal reflux disease|GERD]], [[Gastritis|gastritis]], and some types of [[Ulcer|ulcers]] can magnify the frequency of burping.
