I'm experiencing awful gas pains and can't figure out what it's from or how I can relieve it. Its the worst smelling gas in the world btw...Ginger root doesn't help 1 bit, and I don't want to rely on gas-x my entire life... Macros are roughly 100-120g fat, 250-400g carbs, 225-275g protein... Protein is coming from extra lean ground beef, egg whites(not many, not every day) and 1 whey shake per day(carnivore), carbs are coming from brown rice, sweet potatoes, white rice, flax cereal and Ezekiel bread. Fats are coming from the beef, avocados, and natty pb. I don't drink anything but water, and some almond milk. Aminos, and karbolic intra/post-workout.
Does anyone have any answers or remedies?

I get this from onions. It's terrible. Soft sh¡ts, super pungent farts all day long, bloated feeling.
But the onions are so delicious man..."Exercises aren't bad, people are."

No idea what causes it but I get it sometimes too. Mine are usually accompanied by bloating. I take a stool softener and that always helps me.Originally Posted by Wolfe5989

I occasionally hear a high protein diet makes gas terrible, I just live with it and yogurt with probiotics occasionally help and reducing the amount of eggs and broccoli I intakeOriginally Posted by Wolfe5989

I think artificial sweeteners from gum are a contributor, but i still get it without gum consumption. I'll try some probiotics. Thanks everyone!Originally Posted by TilimRipped

Give acidophilus a shot...it's a probiotic and people in my family have had good results with it. I'm noticing a lot more bloating as well now that I've increased my protein intake. I only went up 30g/day but it's a noticeable different on my GI tract. I feel your pain (literally) bud.

Most of the time the smell of my gas could kill a small village - I think it's mostly due to high protein intake and also I notice it when I have broccoli. I love my protein and so try to be discreet and not knock anyone out.

For me the high protein was a contributor for sure. What helped me is a big dose of Metamucil every morning. The recommended dose is like 1 teaspoon 1 - 3 x/day but I have one heaping just the once. Keeps everything flowing smoothly and took the gas down a lot. Also, too much beef or beef too often hoops me (literally) too. Anyway, I'd try cutting out something out of my diet for 2 or 3 days until I found the culprit. I feel your pain bro.

Drink a ton of healthy juice like V8 or something.
It will help clean your system out.
