I've increased my protein intake to about 350g a day since I've been on cycle. However, I can't keep the food in me. About 30min after each meal, I have to run to the bathroom and let it all out. I've tried different sources of protein including chicken, eggs, tuna, turkey, beans. Everything comes out right after I'm done eating. Not to even mention that I can't stay in a room by myself without sufficating:eek: myself with the odor that comes out of my ass. Do you guys take or know of any digestive aids that will help with the absorption of protein after a meal. I know of ginger root and have tried it, but it didn't work that great for me.

Paypaya enzyme is OTC and might help.

HEHE, that happens when you ramp up protein. It takes 4-6 weeks for your body to adjust it's enzyme mix to handle a drastic change. Your liver produces different enzymes for breaking down proteins, carbs and fats. When you drastically change the mix, it takes a while to adjust. They called me BStrong-BStinky for a while due to the same problem a while back, lol. Try eating sliced fresh ginger with your meals. I've heard that helps too. Otherwise, just keep up the protein and stay away from campfires! :D

I've been doing this and it does help somewhat. Actually I just buy a couple of the whole ginger roots and take a few bites off of it while I'm eating a can of tuna or chicken breast or whatever. I wonder if Beano would help? Anybody tried that?

that is hilarious. I will try the sliced fresh ginger. If I can't this toxic odor problem fixed fast, I'm afraid someone will call the health department on my ass.

I have been ordering my protein from the proteinfactory and get aminogen added to the mix, eliminates the ass stench for me.

same problem here bro...i'm starting to think it is from the creatin because i only have that problem while i'm on it. i asked my doc(who knows about the gear) and he told me to buy probiotica. i guess it helps maintain a healthy balance of "friendly" bacteria in the digestive tract and promotes digestive health and function.
you can get it at any pharmacy without a prescription. let me know if you try it and if it helps...

I've bought from protein factory before too...same stuff you can get everywhere else, but I found Schwartz to have better prices.

Beano works to prevent gas from forming, so it might help. But if the gas is coming from undigested protein, it won't cure it completely. You can eat yogurt or take yeast supps also to keep the friendly bacteria count in check. Although this doesn't sound like a bacterial problem like you can get after a course of strong antibiotics.
