What causes that growling sound in the stomach ??

 If the stomach growls after having meal, it is a good sign !!!



Once food reaches the stomach and small intestine, persists waves helps to churn and push the food forward, mixing it with digestive juices.



This process produces natural noises as gases and liquids move around.  If we eat more air when swallowing the food, we can notice it more  !!!




When we think or smell food, we can hear these noises.  This is because our brain releases hunger hormone , which stimulates  stomach and intestine to contract.




We hear growling noises little louder at night just because the environment is quiet   !!!



Stomach growling is nothing to worry about unless one has excessive gas, persistent stomach pain or blood in stools.

Passengers who wish to reach Sikkim through rail network, must stop their rail journey in Siliguri, West Bengal.



Sikkim's Himalayan geography made railway construction difficult.


Sikkim long relied on road and air transport.


Well developed roads, air connectivity, cable cars and flexible local transport have met most of the travel needs.
