I was looking at the whey protein powders today at sams club and it brought back bad memories form the days 20 years ago when I used to lift weights allot and drank a protein shake daily. Back then it was egg protein that's all there was and I got ill from it. I think it coated my intestines or something.
The Whey protein powders today are not like the egg ones you used. Many people are allergic to egg---from all the vaccines they have been exposed to.

If you cannot digest protein, you might have low acid in the stomach. This can be improved with Betaine HCL supplement.
Protein that is not digested is fermented by bacteria in bowel, to form gas, and hence pain/cramping/diarrhea as a result.
