protein shakes

[adrian55]

ok guys well ive been taking protein shakes for a while now. my problem is that it gives me a lot of gas! and some(most)times when i take a crap, lets just say u know where im going with this....

my question is, can i reduce this gas or diaherea(sp?) to a minimum? or am i doomed as long as im taking them.

Try a new brand

Probably brand related, as anthrax said.

But, also, how much protein in each shake? Maybe you should look into taking Ginger Root with the shake to help digestion.

And, how many shakes are you having? Maybe you need more real food?

im take 2 shakes a day. ive had ON whey which was ok, still gave me gas and stuff, then i bought this other one at costco. both had same effect with digestion but i think the current one is the worst. ive only had 1 day where nothing affected me.

I used to have the same problem. I started using No Carb Isopure and I haven't had the problem since.
