Let's talk about a problem that is super embarrassing well unless you're married or in a committed relationship
Where dutch ovens are considered a loving torment. Which Erica does consider that very much and she's right over there
The problem that problem is protein fats
And it is a shameful reality for fit people all over the world
but why does this happen can we improve the situation and can we stop them from happening?
Well first, let's get down to the stinky truth about why protein farts happen now
We know that a protein molecule is made up of amino acids if we pretend for a minute that a protein molecule is a house
Amino acids would be the cinder blocks that make up the house
So when you eat protein it is broken down into these amino acids and then into their final
Byproducts as you can see here in this picture of a general amino acid molecule
They contain nitrogen
So when you eat more protein you produce more nitrogen as a by-product and your body has to release this somehow
For example some of the nitrogen is released as ammonia in your urine and some is released when you fart
So it's very simple guys more protein equals more nitrogen which equals more fats
the other piece and stinky part of this story
Is that protein is how to feed body to break down and this becomes more of a problem when you eat a lot of protein
Because you are overloading your body with all this extra work to do
When your body gets overloaded it might not completely
Break down or digest the protein and that causes a lot of your nasty fart episodes
What happens is that these proteins are [not] fully broken down by your stomach and they end up in your small intestines and colon
These guys are not designed to handle this and all this extra [material]
creates a breeding ground for bacteria to grow
The material sits and Putrefies or rots and all the Bacteria create these bad
Byproducts that cause the very stinky fats amongst other side effects the third piece of this equation is that you could have some underlying
Conditions that could be contributing to your excess gas
Such as you could be intolerant to some foods or have medical issues with your digestive system
[now] that you know how this works [let's] talk about how you can minimize or eliminate your stinky fat situation
I have to remind you that not everyone is equal and something that might cause you major gas
Might not do anything to other people so my advice [is] to try some of these things to figure out
What is causing your individual problem number one if you are farting a lot
Stinky or not stinky you want to minimize the gas in your system if we are not willing to cut way back on
Protein [at] least we can minimize other ways that gas or air might get into our system
You can reduce the air you ingest by not drinking a lot of carbonated drinks by not chewing gum not
Smoking and not shaking your protein shakes too much all that froth is air that is going inside you with your shake
So shake it just enough to dissolve the protein number two change the type of protein you're using
Protein Powders can be bought as a concentrate isolate or hydrolysate the concentrate has lactose
Which a lot of people have a hard time processing
Actually [a] significant part of the population [is] lactose intolerant, and this could be causing your gas issues
so try a protein isolate or hydrolysate which pretty much have zero lactose and are easier for your body to break down I
Personally use Syntha-6 isolate by BSN
Number three instead of adding milk to your protein powder try almond milk soy milk or water
when you consume
protein with
Lactose in fat from the milk you are creating a tough mix for your body to deal with which could be causing your butt explosions
Almost had that with that with a straight face
number four watch for sugar alcohols sugar alcohols are carbohydrates that the body doesn't completely absorb or
Metabolize so they don't count as carbs
Because of this they are used in a lot [of] high protein products since they add the taste without the calories
Because they are not completely metabolized
They cause bad gas
Even diarrhea on some people while others don't have any problems at all
So try removing them [from] your diet to see if that is the problem
[sugar] alcohols will appear on food labels with the following name such as sorbitol mannitol
xylitol and some other similar names
And it's pretty easy to spot them on a products label number [five] when eating eat protein first
When digesting protein your body uses enzymes and hydrochloric acid and the acid is a very important part of the process
Now let's say you're at a restaurant
And you get some salad before your meal your body will release the hydrochloric acid when you ingest food
Not knowing you do not need acid to digest [the] salad
so what happens is that [you've] just
Wasted a bunch of your acid and when the steak finally comes you do not have enough to completely break down the protein
The result is partially digested protein which we already saw is a recipe for disaster
If you are having gas issues try prioritizing your protein on your meals by eating them first
Another option is to buy supplements that will provide you with the acid you need a very well known one is beta
Hydrochloride and can be found in vitamin stores, but let me remind you to always consult with your doctor or nutritionist before buying supplements
Number 6. Take enzymes as supplements
There are a lot of options and health food stores that will help with the acid balance and will help you process food better
Enzymes will also help you with the absorption of macronutrients. So you are utilizing more of that precious protein you're eating now
When you are looking for an enzyme
supplement
make sure you get something [that] has a variety of enzymes to digest [all] three types of
macronutrients protein carbs and fat
Here's an example of a good label with enzymes to break down protein carbs fats fiber and even lactose
number seven eat your fiber
fiber helps move things along in your digestive tract which helps with healthy digestion and less gas a
[high-protein] [Low-carb] diet is a recipe for constipation because most of the fiber is in carb foods pay attention to this but
Make [sure] you start increasing the amount of your fiber
you eat slowly [a]
Drastic change may low fiber to a [high] [fiber] diet will also make you bloated and fart like crazy
Number eight like I mentioned before you can create an environment
[in] your digestive tract that causes bad Bacteria to grow and take over the good Bacteria
Which will lay the foundation for super stinky fats now you can help your fart
situation by helping the Growth of good Bacteria in your GI tract by either eating probiotic rich or fermented Foods like yogurt
Kefir Sauerkraut
Or by taking a probiotic supplement
When buying probiotics I am more worried about the types or strains of Bacteria
instead of the amount
companies are trying to get you to buy their
Probiotics with big numbers on the label like 30 billion or 50 billion, but studies cannot prove that more is better
Instead make sure your probiotics contain the most important strains that would give you the most bang for your buck in here
They are the first one is lactobacillus acidophilus
This one helps nutrient absorption and is important for digestion of dairy
Bifidobacterium Longum this one is a toxin cleaner and will protect your gut wall
Bifidobacterium Bifidum this one is important for Dairy digestion
But is also critical for breakdown of Complex Carbohydrates fat and protein another thing you should think about is that
Probiotics are live Bacteria
For them to work the bacteria needs to get into your stomach alive, so look for an expiration date
information on the packaging delivery system of the Bacteria to your stomach and
information guaranteeing the quality
Through the expiration date. So here are some good examples of some headlines you should find on your probiotic products
Delayed released vegetable capsules help ensure more friendly probiotics reach your intestinal tract
quality purity and potency guaranteed through expiration and shelf-stable
Potency promise what we promise is what you get 50 billion live probiotic cultures
Shipped in a desiccant lined bottle to help ensure your probiotics arrive alive and stay alive
And now [here's] an [example] of a good label with all the mainstay
Mentioned so quickly pause the video if you want [to] get a closer look
There you have it guys hopefully this gives you some things to try so you can stop clearing out rooms and get your fighting under control
Just do yourself a favor and try one [of] these methods at a time
