Foamy protein shakes

Does anyone have any tricks for eliminating the foam that forms after a blending a Protein shake? I can tolerate the shakes but all that foam just literally makes me gag. I use a ninja or a Blender Bottle and get the same results no matter how little I blend it. It's preventing me from getting in all my protein.

I just use a shaker bottle now (used to use ninja) and after I shake it, I let it sit for about five minutes, then pour it into another cup with some ice and 90% of the foam is gone. As far as I know, there is no way around it.

My son is on a specialized formula as he is tube fed. I found that putting the formula in a covered container and smacking the bottom of the bottle on the counter a few times knocks a lot of the bubbles out. I pour it into a bottle, screw on the lid, then bang the bottom flat against the counter three of four times. If he's being extra sensitive, I can then pour the bottom layer out as it is nearly bubble free.

I've also noticed that certain brands are foamier than others. A different brand may be better for you.
