Real Matters High protein shits

[Ohwell]

High protein diet got me spending half my day on the toilet or feeling bloated.

First meal was only 35 grams of protein. I don’t think my stomach was built for this diet. Any suggestions?

What do you mean? Are you having trouble passing bowel movements? What are your protein sources?

It was 4 large eggs and some oatmeal with protein powder mixed in. My shits just come out like clay or are very explosive.

If I had to point out the possible culprit I'd probably say it was the protein powder due to the tryptophan content.

Try to cut out the protein powder for a bit and see how your bowel movements are.
