Stephen C asked:


Intestinal gas is methane and methane gas is lighter than air. With these 2 truths in place, how many/much beans would a normal, 150 pound person have to eat to show measurable weight loss after passing gas?

    My best guess the question is once saw here that is once saw here that is once saw here that is lighter than air fat muscle etc.
    The question is far heavier sounds like you said methane is far heavier sounds.

    If a 150lb person ate 10 pounds of beans, they would weigh 160lb. Once everyone survived the passing of the gas, they still would not lose weight until they defecated the 10 pounds of beans.

    Is there a real answer for this?
