I don't know how to cure them but I've found my "magic number" is 30 g.  If I eat less than 30 g protein in one sitting, I'm fine.  If I eat more than that, no company for me for the next little while!  So, my only real suggestion is to figure out your "magic number" and make sure you consume just a smidge less than it next time.

Yeah 30-40 grams is the magic number, depending on your weight.

I think the reason why people get too much protein in one sitting is because they forget to count the protein in the complex carbs they are eating. One cup of oatmeal has 10 grams, 2 ounces of whole wheat pasta has 7-8 grams, etc.. So the trick is counting that into your protein total. So instead of eating like 5-6 ounces of meat along with your carbs and other things, eat 3-4 ounces depending on what type of carbs you are having in the meal. This should help get your protein total for the meal into a better range.

Take a Beano tablet before you eat.

Ummm thanks for making my morning, hahahaha!

You're never too old to laugh at farts.

I couldn't help but think what Jay Cutler's (Mr. Olympia) gym must smell like.  He eats 500g+ of protein a day lol.

Borrowing from the immortal Bard, some farts are "Full of sound and fury, signifying nothing."

On the other hand, my whole wheat pasta, bread, pizza crusts, and pie-cakes can produce some prodigious ones that signify I should use moderation in some things.

so protein farts reek but at least you didnt have fruit farts! sooo loud! i was teaching an art class yesterday (my first one EVER by the way) and i'd had like 8 servings of fruit (just one of those days). Totally RIPPED one!

LOL! LOL, Fruit farts truly reek! I was bustin' butt on the StairMaster & one popped out! Luckily, no one was around but it stank so bad I had to get off the machine & walk around the track until it dissipated. It's bad when you offend yourself.... LOL!

this entire thread has me in stitches. hilarious!

i have no solution for your farts, i am sorry to say. the other posters have given some very good advice though!

Wink

i was thinking of maybe eating more fruit and maybe my belly will get healthier....

but i don't think i want to experiment with a fruity protein fart :O

lmao

Insane the lot of you...but great for a laugh!Laughing
