could be the lactose in them grab an isolate whey, i know pvl's isogold is 100% isolate, and is less harsh on people who are alegric or lactose itolerant

From my point of view, 3 shakes a day is too much. Maybe you feel bad because you don't eat enough real and whole food.

A lot of people have that problem with whey concentrates - my problems went away when I switched to an isolate.

My favorite isolate is Syntrax Nectar (which is why I rep for them), but another good isolate I've tried is Ergopharm's GF/IF-Pro.

Just try an isolate and see if it helps - I really think it will since what you described are common issues from a whey concentrate. I'm not lactose intolerant at all but whey concentrates still upset my stomach -- with an isolate, the burping and the bloating should go away.

Good luck!
