Gas and Protien shakes...anybody else have this problem?

Question

I have been taking (Muscletech) Nitro-Tech protien for about a month and a half. I recently have noticed, as well as others...lol, that I have been very gassy. Any effective alternatives to the protien shakes?

Answer 1

Unfortunately, there really isn't a good alternative, mostly because consuming enough meat or legumes (protein sources like beans and other misc. things) to replace the amount of protein received in a shake will result in the same problem. Large amounts of protein in general, regardless of their type cause gas. Natural fact. Pretty much try what was already said, Beano, it'll help a little but its that or give up the shakes.

Answer 2

OH GOD YESS. I did nitrotech and other forms of protien for a year or so, and i was unbeearable to be around did NOT find any solution other than lower protien intake. sorry
You may want to try beano when you take your shake... might help.

Answer 3

It's because your body can't fully digest it, so you get gas.

Haha stop buying muscletech products.

Answer 4
