If I'm farting, have I had too much protein?

[Notedog]

If I'm farting a lot, have I had too much protein? After my workout, I'll have my protein shake with oats ank milk, and the protein comes out to about 36 grams. 61 if you add Chocolate whey. I fart uncontrollably. Yesterday I did it w/o chocolate whey, and the farting was still there, but considerably less.

Point being, so long as I'm farting a lot, should I cut down on protein?

[justinsaling]

the best time to fart is when your in a crowded elevator.

[justinsaling]

but for real, you might have a problem with the lactose in the milk...maybe?

Protein farts are a good sign of progress

[F1eld]

someone told me that whey concentrate will make you fart more than whey isolate. see what kind it says you have on the container

[SDB1]

Try mixing the protein with water or juice. You can also try Soy or Rice milk. Gas is usually from the Lactose in Milk. The protein will not make you have gas. Do you get bad gas eating a bunch of chicken???

[Ryan314]

Well, excess protein in your diet will not get absorbed/digested, so the bacteria in your intestines just goes to town on it, which as a result, makes you gassy.

Protein whey was definately the cause of my farts, i had 2 or 3 shakes a day and id fart all day every day, at work, in meetings, at home, in bed, in the pub

always loud long farts

it wasnt only farting either, i was crapping 3 or 4 times a day

its so bad i had to stop having protein shakes.

I drink weight gain only now and its still 40% protein or something like that but my farts are no where near as bad

[Ryan314]

Also, for me, switching over to whey protein isolate (Dymatize) has significantly made me alot less gassy, and they also don't smell as bad either
