Dude I have to second the idea of more fat and protein and less grains. I know its hard because scrambled eggs don't travel like a granola bar, I feel your pain. But dude, I know that if I eat oatmeal with nuts and bacon on the side even, or a breakfast sandwich, or whatever combination of mostly carbs with a side of protein I feel like crap pretty quickly. I think that I usually feel the best if I am having high protein meals that have some fat and lots and lots of produce, with very limited grains of any kind. It isn't just digestive, I also notice a major sugar spike issue as grains go up in my diet. If there were ever a cave man child, Jake is it!
Maybe you could experiment with very manly, low carb breakfasts. (there are lots of cool ideas about little baked egg muffin cups that you put lots of yummy additions into, that you can make many batches of and refrigerate for time saving options) And then like what if you can pack him meat, cheese, yogurt, and produce without the grains. I wonder how he would feel if he were mostly grain free for a few days. Maybe he would balance out...or maybe he would consume an entire side of beef followed by a few neighbors because he wasn't full enough, who can say?
