Stop using it and see if the gas goes away. If it does, I would find another protein powder. I don't know all the details on the protein powders, but if something is causing you gas, you should use something else.

yes, you can get the "protein farts" as they call them from whey

You may be lactose intolerant, and because they protein is primarily from milk it may not work well for you. I am lucky I am not, but I have friends who cannot drink milk w/o getting gas.

Don't take so much at once

You body isn't processing it properly cuz you're probably taking too much at once

Take 25-30 grams at a time, instead of 50-60 (if you are taking that much)

regardless - just take small amounts more often...if you take 1 big shake a day, take 3 small ones instead

I had the exact same problem, and it worked for me

Take some ginger with it and see if that helps. And if it doesn't just let 'er blow!

And if it's loud - just say "compliments to the cook!"

But just think of the things you can do! Blow one out just as you leave the elevator (or 'lift') leaving a "suprise" for the next person to board!

You get into a conversation and want it to end - Rip! and watch the other person leave!

You should get a good whey isolate. ON's whey is most likely a mix of isolate and concentrate...that can cause problems. Ever since I switched to a pure isolate, I have never had any problems even when I take as much as 100g within a short period of time. PM me if you want more info.

if ur having it with milk, then its the milk

[jarbulldog]

i always thought when intake extermly high levels of protein it caused farting

[MuffDyver]

its definitly the milk, somedays i would have it with water and i wouldnt fart and the days that i had it with whole milk i fated my ass off.
