Protein and gas....

[TerraNoble]

Eating those whey protein ,white eggs, gives me a lot of gas.
I call them protein farts..

Do you guys know any remedy for those damn farts?

For my whey protein , I use water...
I did some pancakes today with whey protein and I used milk..

Even when I do not use milk , there are still gases fighting to get out.....

Yes. Protein do cause gases in your body.

But be careful:

Too much of protein can affect your kidneys in a negative way...

as for gas, ginger root might help

So that means that high protein intake doesn't affect kidneys in any way, right?

Nice article,
Thanks for informing

if you don't already have kidney failures there is no problem with eating large quantities of proteins (apart from gas )

and a bit much prot is certainly better than not enough

high protien causing damage is just a myth.


I had a lot of gas too and i was using milk with my shakes. I started using lactose free milk and have no gas at all now.

Anthrax hit the nail on the head....on both of his points...

Ginger root helps digestion and might eliminate those nasty farts. Try freeze dried capsules in 500mg doses (take two of these with a high protein meal) and see if you notice a difference after a week or so....it might get worse before it gets better but hang in there.....

I also know people who get bad gas if they don't eat enough carbs with their protein....which might be a problem if you're a low-carber....
