Farting

Hi,

Has anybody else noticed you fart more when eating healthy? I'm suspecting it's the extra protein powder, eggs, or veggies. I never farted this much in my life! So embarrassing when you have to hold it in front of others. Ughh...

    I get gassy with eggs. It just gives me motivation to workout outside so I can blow as much as I want to! :)

    Yes. Certain veggies especially will make you gassy, such as broccoli. Same with protein.

    Yup. It's a rootin' tootin' good time at the gym. Everyone is having a rip roaring good time.

    and so on.

    I noticed the same thing and tried to research some of the causes and for the most part it is due to the foods that take more time to digest. Things such as whole grains and bananas seem to be my enemy. But I eat them anyway and let everyone else suffer with me :-D

    Your body will adjust, at least mine did. Now I only get gassy when I eat crappy processed food. the real food settled in and my system is quite happy -once my body said "oh you're what I want anyway!"

    My health coach said that farting is a healthy thing. If you don't fart something is wrong.

    The increase of protein and fibre will make you gassy until your digestive system adjusts. Stick it out, you'll adjust :)

    Fibre is a huge culprit, but eventually the body adjusts...at least in my experience.

    I am WAY better if I cook all my veggies. Oh, and sorbitol/maltitol and other artificial sweeteners can cause gas too.

    One time, I was doing inverse crunches and I farted really loudly. The gym had a good LOL that day.

    A little wisdom from Turk on Scrubs, "I have a wife and a daughter and they both fart.". Boy is this true. I do feel more gassy myself, but I eat a lot of bans and Garlic.

    My husband & I use digestive enzymes at mealtime if we eat a food that may backfire especially beans! We use the capsule form at GNC.
