LM...thanks...I had a big question.

I am VERY concerned about a recent development, as mentioned, the egg protein.
In the past, I noticed if I had Egg beaters for breakfast too many times a week I would get bloated/trapped gas.

Since I have upped my protein intake, I know need 1 gram per day, and it is crucial that I get some protein for breakfast.
I have been relying on anywhere from 2-4 shakes a day (4 on workout days).
Within the last several days my gut has become bloated-which I believe is due to trapped gas.
Prior to this my gut was pretty gassy.
So I am concerned that the Egg Powder IS causing gas/trapped gas/bloating.

I was curious if
1) You have heard of this or if this is possible?
2) What does this indicate...I have a sensitivity and must moderate intake?
3) What is the solution as if I scrap Egg Powder it will be very hard to meet protein requirements. I have no idea what to have in the AM besides an Egg Powder shake.
-Do you either know something which alleviates this problem OR any other suggestions for protein substitutes...especially in the AM breakfast?
