| When I mix up protein shakes, many of which include whey protein and egg whites, they get lots of air whipped in with them. This leads to a lot of bloating (distended stomach , gas , belching , etc) over the next few hours. Anyone figured out how to minimize this? |

| How much protein are you consuming with this protein shake? I notice when I’m consuming an excessive amount of protein I experience these similar symptoms. I have learned to space my protein out a little more throughout the day for the same total protein amount. It seems to have alleviated much of these symptoms. Also, if you're introducing a big difference in total daily protein intake, your body might not have had time to adjust. However, if you have been experiencing this problem for awhile, I would lower my protein intake a little. If this fixes your problem, then you know where your daily protein intake level should be. Hope this helps Good luck with your training |

| What kind of Protein are you consuming? I am going to go on a limb and say that you may be lacose intolerant,so If I were you I would spend the extra couple bucks and buy 100% whey isoloate(damn near lacose free)...PM me if you want a good brand,that tatses,and mixes great(NO i have nothing to gain by giving you this brand) |
