These winds from "down under" either sound too loud or smell too much. Either way that these "careless whispers" escape through the anus, it's embarrassing to the source and cause of irritation to the recipient of the sound or smell.

It's double purpose because the pill eases indigestion as well as remove the bad smell from the unwanted anal emission.

However, soon, farts may cease to be a source of embarrassment as well as the subject of toilet humour, thanks to an indigestion pill invented by 65-year-old Christian Poincheval. He admits the idea was triggered by flatulence attacks on himself and his tablemates during dinners that they almost suffocated from the stench.

He invented a pill in 2006 made from natural ingredients such as mixed vegetable charcoal, fennel, lithothamne or seaweed, propolis or plant resin and blueberry that made the farts smell either like the scent of roses or the inviting odour of a chocolate. For the chocolate version, Poincheval added cocoa peel.

Poincheval named the chocolate-flavoured pill Father Christmas Fart Pill because it's a bestseller during the yearend holiday season. A jar with 60 pills costs €9.99, which are sold at Poincheval's Web site (www.pilupet.com). Pilupet is fart pill in French language.

"Some buy them because they have problems with flatulence and some buy them as a joke to their friends," Metro quoted the inventor who comes from Gesvres, north-west of France.

It seems he has addressed only the foul odour of farts, not the loud sound which is not as bad as the stink.

In 2013, a Briton created an underwear that also masks the fart smell often compared to a rotten egg.
