Egg farts

[BadWog]

Hey everyone,

Over the past few days I have been dropping these disgusting egg farts that stink out the whole room. It isn't really bothering me atm because I'm on holidays, but once school starts up again in a month I don't want to be having this problem.

The thing is, I haven't eaten eggs in like 2 weeks! When I was eating 6 whole eggs a day (from about early may to early june), I didn't have a problem with farts at all. My total daily protein intake is also lower. Before I was getting in 220gs a day and now I only get in 180gs.

I swear two nights ago I farted in my girlfriends car and it stunk out the whole car. It was raining outside so we couldn't open the windows. So we get to the store, go inside, buy a few things and go back to the car. When we get back into the car about 15 minutes later the car smells just as bad as it did wen we got out.

So what could be causing these horrible farts?

This is roughly what I've been eating over the past week.

Kellogs All Bran
No Fat Milk
Peanut Butter
2 scoops of whey a day
1 scoop of casein a day
Tuna
Gatorade
Wholemeal Pasta
Bread
Rice
Oats
Steak
Chicken Breast

I think that about covers it.

Any help is much appreciated.

I'll let you know if and when these farts stop, but it's been almost 4 days now and shows no sign of slowing down. It's like my insides are rotting. :S

Cheers.

Did you switch/add something in your diet recently? I had the same problem when I switched from soy to whey and it went away after a few days.

Also, the "egg smell" is H2S (hyrdogen sulfide) which just stinks to high heaven. If you've been drinking wine lately it could be that 'cause it contains a lot of sulfites which can degrade to H2S in the bowels. (Also why your nose feels boogery after you drink alot.)

I know, TMI, but I like what I do.

I think you should cut the milk out of your diet.

It's either that or your body can't handle the whey/casein proteins.

Either way you should invest in some BEANO

The thing I don't understand is, I've been having the milk, whey and casein EVERY single day for months now, in the exact same quantity. Why all of a sudden am I getting these horrible farts?

What exactly is Beano? I might have to do a google search and see if Australia sells an equivalent. I think my Dad has some Eno in the pantry, might be the same thing.

I'm gonna try and stick to a diet over the next couple of days consisting of the exact same things in the exact same quantity every day. Then slowly remove things and see if I notice a difference.

I'll keep you guys updated.

Cheers.

i bet its the peanut butter doing it. i get them terrible from peanut butter and almonds maybe stop the peanut butter for a while and see, if you still want to get your good fats use olive oil
