Protein farts are why I hvae my own office now

Also, everyone saying it is "Not the protein" it is the protein.

A protein-rich diet produces relatively small amounts of intensely stinky gas because proteins contain lots of sulfur.

Farting is wonderful. My x-gf wasnt too happy about it. She said that every morning she woke up besides me, there was a misty fog of horrible stench in the whole bedroom (and almost no oxygen at all).

I´ve noticed that for me, the farting mostly has to do with the amount of food. The farting seems to increase exponentially to the amount of food.

LMAO, yeah the same thing happens with me. it always seems to kick in worst during school. my teacher already kicked me out for it once this week. Im goin for 2. but seriously, its so damn raunchy, 2 of my teachers have had to say soemthing about it, but my friends love it. Its seriously about a fart every 3 minutes. and not just a squeeker, im talkin the hot kind you actually feel blow out slow n hot. And they are, undoubtedly, the raunchiest things ive ever smelled in my life. And idk about anyone else, but i did an experiment and found out the biggest cause of my gas was Kashi Go-Lean Crunch. Idk whats in that stuff, but something in there just kills me. But i still have gas every day, and im forced to hold it in during school so that i cramp up later when i get home. But yeah im havin the same gas problems as you man, just terrible timing for it

I think its more of the sugar with the protein than the protein. Eating a bunch of steak doesn't make me fart, but if I havent been taking protein in a while, a protein shake will definetly make me fart some rancid shit (rancid enough that you have to be proud of it) until my body acclimizes.

The bacteria in your colon LOVE the sugar in the shakes, so they eat that shit up like mad and produce very high sulfur compounds. Fuck, you think regular protein shakes are bad, try drinking a weight gainer, those are the worst.

For some reason though, at least personally, after a week or so of taking protein, my body seems to get used to it and it stops. My girlfriend absolutely hates the "transitioning in" phase of me starting to take shakes again.

Its the protein powder that you are using. I am willing to bet you are using Whey Concentrate as it is most common to produce gas because of the lactose in it. If you are using a common brand as in NitroTech or EAS or Optimum Nutrition than what you have is Whey Concetrate which is only 80% protein per scoop. The other 20% is what is causing you gas. Try a better type of Whey like Ion Exchange, Isolate etc. The better brands like Isopure contain that protien which is 98% bio-available.

Its not the sugars, its not the meats, its the Whey Concetrate, Lactose and the rest of the 20% that is added per scoop to your shake.

No, water can help with the gas

Whey concentrate can give alot of protein farts because of the lactose. Try an isolate.
