You still haven't said what you're eating, and you say above you're not eating carbs and then that you're eating carbs. The carbs to avoid are the simple carbs, the carbs to eat are the complex carbs, especially vegetables. But let's say when you increased protein you started eating a lot of dairy -- that could explain the gas. So could anything you're either allergic to or intolerant to.
Any sudden change of your dogs diet can cause gas as does feeding of too many table scraps. Smelly gas is normal in dogs but if its frequent then something is wrong in his/her diet. I recommend a high protein, low fiber diet. The cheaper brands of dog food are made with alot of filler and less protein, that could also cause excess gas. Especially older dogs need a good quality dog food. Good Luck!
Is there an over the counter drug that will help my gas and the smell it produces, it is really embarrassing. I am 59 and female. I have changed diet to try to eat healthier, and am eating more fruits and vegetables, I am not sure if they add to the gas and smell of it.
Has anyone noticed the inordinate amount of gas after an afib episode? Maybe it is the medication causing the gas? I constantly am burping throughout the day. Before my afib attack I was chronically constipated. Don't know if that has anything to do with it or not.
The only thing i can imagine to include as a possible factor is the fact that that same week this started, i started a high protein diet consisting of protein bars for breakfast and then protein shakes blended with banana and flax for snack with normal meals for breakfast and dinner. No fever, no blood in stools, the left side from the ribs down to hip bone spasms and there feels like blockage pain. I obviously have stopped the diet but still not regular.... can anyone help?
The last 6 months have been off and on severe stomach aches that are more gas related as I do not have an urge to throw up just severe gas pains and stomach cramps and Kaopectate helped some. I have been to my internist and they have tested everything except my colon. All the tests of the stool, urine, ultrasound of gall bladder all came back negative - healthy liver, gall bladder, pancreas and kidneys.
There are some bacteria in the gut that produce hydrogen sulfide gas. This gas has a smell of rotten eggs. Most of this gas comes from sulfites a person consumes, which is a part of all preservatives. Sulfites are present in all juices, molasses, yellow dye in ready made food stuffs, and red wine. Sulfites are present in lesser amounts in mashed potatoes made from dry powder, pickles, tinned shrimp, cookies, crackers, and readymade pie dough.

s nearly impossible with 2000 mg of sodium limit daily. I hit the protein shake w/ chick pea n hemp protein. The whey protein made me tired. Too much bad protein can bring on HE. You'll find your balance where you can feel good. Lots of protein bars and dry cereals have high protein and I consume a lot of those!

A successful diet plan should contain high protein diet, protein is useful in the matter of weight reduction in light of the fact that it is hard to process. This implies that you will feel full more aside from the way that protein makes you feel full quicker. Make sure, high protein eating plan just conveys extensive weight reduction results when the consumption of carbs is limited.
Having yogurt as well. Also added citrucel ( about a Tablespoon) to my diet as well. Still have the gas/bloat syndrome but, the gas hasn't been as bad. I do feel better otherwise. My mother had the opposite problem as I had before surgery but there was nothing that could be done for her. She practically lived on Ensure and Boost for her nutritional support. I have been told that the Ensure and Boost causes diarrhea when used alone and over a period of time. Why I added the fiber.
How advanced is your liver disease?
If you have symptoms of decompensation (ascites, hepatic encephalopathy,
varices, etc) then your diet is especially important. Eating protein is necessary but the research I've done on behalf of my husband says to eat more plant and dairy protein and less animal protein (particularly little or no red meat). No alcohol at all! It's like pouring kersosene on your liver. Drink lots of water also and limit your sugar intake.
I've been on the Ultralite diet for about five weeks now, which is a high protein low carb diet (4 serves of protein a day + 20 gs of carbs) I have issues with digestion, reflux, etc, generally, but for the last week or so have been having terrible stomach pains when I eat. I have tried diferent digestive enzymes (which seemed to give me diarrhoea) and also digestive bitters - both of these help a little but not consistently.
This happens due to excess amino acids in sweat (which are breakdown products of protein), seen common with a high protein diet. Also if the diet is rich in cheese, then a bacteria of staphylococcus type acts on the sweat and causes this smell of vinegar. Hence to avoid this smell you would need to carefully look at his diet and lower the protein and cheese content in it.
Another possibility is releasing hydrogen sulphide gas in stool and urine.
That's an awful lot of protein... my doctor has me on a high protein diet, 108 grams/day and most days I can't make that, even with a couple of shakes.
Are shakes and water all you plan to consume? If so, that's not good or sustainable. In addition, weight lost too and not in a healthy manner will most likely be regained as soon as you start eating normally again, even if maintaining a healthy diet.
Here's my take, for what it's worth. Calories aren't a very good guide to weight -- they're a factor but how you metabolize your food is more important. Also realize that most of the people in the world who have been studied for having the healthiest lives eat a lot of carbs -- they aren't on high protein diets. We all know that vegetables are the healthiest foods and should make up the largest portion of our diets, but they are all carbs.
