Massive Gas..... Emarassing Help!!!!

[kibslibchargeback]

Ok... just like it says i have massive gas. not just gas but really bad smelling gas. I mean i lay one and it consumes the air for 2 minutes and its the worst mother @#$'in bad smelling fart you'll ever smell. Now i'm at work and I have to hold it in for 3 hours straight until i go on break. So everytime i feel the urge to let it go i have to hold in and i feel it churning its way back into my stomach and it hurts! it hurts really really bad. I can't even let out a little bit for relief b/c they just smell too much. I take a lot of protein each day. I weigh 170 and I take in about 200. Only after I drink a whey protein shake or eat a protein bar do i start to feel the cramping. Now i can't not have a whey protein shake or a protein bar b/c i need the protein in my diet. Btw Taking gas-x does not work for me. So anyone have any suggestions on what i can do here? please for the love of god how do i get rid of this?

Same shit w/ me! I have to keep an air freshener next to my comp. I don't know why whey protein makes us fart so much. My self,I never farted. You just have to drink it till you get used to it.
At my job I hold it in or go to the bathroom or an empty aisle. So, just figure some way to relieve that shit....

DOn't get caught though

Get some beno guys. It works great. Take it with your first bite of food.

I experienced the same thing when I first started taking whey, MRP and such. However, it becomes less and less of a problem for me and nowadays it doesn't even happen anymore. I weight 180 and take 250-280g of protein per day. ~120 from Whey and the rest from real food.

One thing that helped me the most is to NOT mix skim milk w/ my MRP or WHEY. For some reason, my stomach just doesn't take it very well when mixed w/ milk.

That's my .02

G'day,

Is it just the ginger capsules you guys and gals use? Looking through the search function thingo looks to be that; what about actual ginger in the powder form you use for cooking and stuff, reckon that would work too?

Cheers peoples

change your whey and bars, Make sure it's lactose free. I had the same problems mainly with tripple threat, then i changed over to isopure, and VP2. I get no gas at all with those. AST vyopro bars work great too. no gas at all

 

[Spectre]

Try other brands, they all hit us differently. Maybe real food like chicken, tuna and cottage cheese.

I'd like to know if regular cooking ginger would help too..
Thanks

 

[fitmedic]

yes.. but you probably wont be using 1-2 of powder

caps are pretty cheap.. or if you are really "economical" you can buy the raw root for really cheap

i dont think this is just a problem from whey, milk and other various protein substances, I think it's just mass protein intake altogether with a combination of heathly eating and eating every couple of hours cause I doesn't matter what I eat protein wise, I got protein farts 24/7 and I feel you bro. I am a bartender at a restaurant and everyonce in awhile I just let them slip, my co workers hate it. I think it's funny. It's really fun to take a walk through the restaurant and let one rip cause it just permiates the whole place but nobody knows the culprit

I work at a gym, and since I eat like a horse my ass is like a symphony. My solution is to walk in the spinning room and let one rip everytime I start to feel like a hot air balloon. At least then the hot girls at the desk and members dont get pissed...but I'd hate to be the wierd guy thats always blasting techno riding the bike that goes no where.

Best solution: Carry around a lighter. That way you can put on a show and kill the smell at the same time.

1.) GINGER ROOT!!! I like to use 2gm's minimum per meal.

2.) Drink more water with your meals, as this will help increase solubility.

3.) Buy a more soluble whey protein...preferably whey isolate. This will help speed absorption and give less time for the bacteria in the intestines to feed and give off their gas as well.

4.) Try taking in some Lactase tablets with each dairy or whey protein serving, as this will help speed up the absorption of any Lactose that wasn't fractioned off during filtration, etc.... This may not help much for some, but it does help a little.

5.) Eat smaller protein meals spaced out during the day. Two 40 gram whey protein shakes will be asorbed quicker than one 80 gram serving shake. Take 1-2 grams of ginger with each and some lactase tabs. You could drink a 40 gram drink, then wait an hour and have the rest of the drink.

cutting out the gas!

Start by using baking soda and water,but watch out this has lots of sodium-(salt).
For protein- try several chocolate bars,I noticed that each chocolate bar@11/2 ounces had 3 grams protein,and graham crackers has 1 gram of protein.
On the present problem of cutting the rug-(gas)a long time friend who is a male nurse came up with this idea and it works so well that everyone around you wonders where the smell came from as no noise was heard.
First go to a hospital supply store and purchase an enema tube with and inflatable cluff,once inserted up your anus,then inflat until it is comfortable,then take the tube and run it down your pant leg until it is near your ankle,use hospital tape to hold it in place on your skin. Now you will be able to pass gas and no one will know where it came from. The inflatable cluff allows you pass the gas without slippage out of your anus,a insurance policy that will allow you to pass gas without guilt!.

Use whey isolate instead of whey consentrate. It costs more but it is much easier to digest.

I think it would be more embarrasing if people found out I walk around with an enema tube stuck up my ass all day.

I think I'll just take my chances.

Oh my god I know what you mean but this post is f**ing hilarious.

I don't know how long you have been on the shakes but it sounds like you just started drinking them. After a while your digestive track should handle them nicely. But for now stick to the advice the guys gave you.

Just sit back and enjoy!!!!

Funny story - I travel a lot with my job, so much that I am a Platinum Elite member and get upgraded to First Class almost all the time. On 2 seperate occassions, I have had so much gas that I have noticed 2 people around me putting thier blankets over their noses! The key is to keep a good POKER FACE and never admit anything. I imagine that most people know that it's me due to my size but without confirmation they are just unproveable allegations!

Another great idea is to periodically look around and make faces acting like you are disgusted as well. This also creates some "reasonable doubt" as to exactly who the Mad Farter really is.

ENJOY!!!!!!
