On Fruit Flush Detox Diet, Taken 100 Grams Of Protein Within 2 Hours, Have Stomach Pain. Will It Prove Harmful For Me?
I had started a Fruit Flush detox diet (3 day diet) that started with a morning/afternoon of protein shakes every two hours and a healthy veggie/protein dinner. Well there was a typo and instead of having a 6-8 oz glass of protein shake (1 scoop = 25 g protein), I had a 16 oz glass with 2 scoops. I did this at 8:15 am and 10:15 am. That s 100 grams of protein in a little over 2 hours, and now my stomach hurts bad. Is this going to be bad for me, or will the stomach ache be the extent of it?

Hi,
I have read your query and here is my advise.
* As per the narration, the described amount is causing abdomen pain due to hyper secretion of duodenal contents in terms of cholecystokinin and else to digest the ingested amino acids in form of protein.
* There is nothing to worry about the same, as the contractions of the stomach and duodenum will subside within next 2-3 hours only.
* Take care for the additional doses intake for avoiding such episodes.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
