Anti-lactose is called lactase. It sure worked for me when i used it with milk.

When you finish what you have try this product, it is 97% Lactose free. I have 0 gastric issues with it.

Either work very well. I'm lactose intolerant so I use unsweetened almond milk however the low cal juice is also great. I add a banana and yogurt or frozen fruit for a filling and tasty shake!

This is on the recommended list of drinks from my bariatric surgeon. I've lost significant amounts of weight using this as a meal replacement. Five shakes a day, no cheating, will yield excellent results in a short time period. I've had bariatric surgery, so you should check with your doctor before starting a calorie restricted protein diet.

Here is a link from their webpage that has the contents of the system. I use the berry splash powder. If you mix it in a smoothie or fruit juice it tastes just fine. Remember to mix it well to dissolve the powder. http://www.endfatigue.com/store/products/supplements/berry-splash/ This website link also has information about allergies, so you should be able to tell right away. It says it contains no yeast, wheat, gluten, corn, artificial colors or flavorings. There is whey protein, but the amount of it is so small, people with milk allergies are usually not bothered (600 mg of lactose and 900 mg of casein per serving). However, if you have an allergy to milk that cannot tolerate even that small an amount, it says not to use it. To compare, it says an 8 oz glass of milk has about 10,000-16,000 mg. That means a glass of milk has 10-16 times more than one serving of this. Anyway, check out this link, and if you can't open it, Google www.endfatigue.com and you should be able to find the store link, then go to products, then supplements. The info is all there. Good luck.

I think the answer is yes...this is normal for this particular product. It did not help my gastric reflux, which was the reason I used it..but it did cause me to have an overactive gut! So I know something was in it..but I really don't know what! I personally would not waste my money on this again.

The reason I ordered this product is because my stomach does not react well to maltodextrin and other additives found in trademarked products. I have been using this stevia for over a month without any reaction.

I put about 10 drops in a large container, stirred it very well and left it to sit for a day or so, and didn't have any problems (and I'm normally very sensitive to lactose). It did not change the consistency of the yogurt, either.

Yes it does. I tried lots of iron suppl. But this is the easiest on my stomach. I am lactose intolerant but it does not upset me. Good luck.

For me it's ok when mixed with most other things. I like Chocolate Whey and maybe some skim milk to taste. I've also mixed it with Cytomax. Personal taste, just mix it with something you like and it's fine. I'm on my third large container and don't notice the taste any more. It's a lot better than trying to eat the large amount of veggies you are supposed to eat every day.

If it has lactose, it's such a small amount that it probably won't bother you. I'm lactose intolerant, but I could mix this up with almond milk and have no problems or indigestion whatsoever. I was pretty relieved to find a protein powder that was digestible for me.

I am a vegan. Make sure you have a little something in you stomach. Put the contents on some mashed banana or some type of food, if you can't tolerate the taste. Also know, it goes into your system more quickly.I no longer use it.

No it shouldn't cause weight gain. It is very low in sugars and carbs. It simply helps to provide easily assimilated proteins to repair muscle tears after a workout or overnight. I take thisbafyet a workout and before bed. Just as a warning, this tastes disgusting. Buy the pill form instead of the powder and you won't have that problem

Hi, Lewka! After reviewing the label, it doesn't appear to lactose/gluten free. Your best bet would be to stick to a vegan powder like Garden of Life RAW Organic Meal replacement shake. It can be found here on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Garden-Life-Organic-Meal-Powder/dp/B0031JK95S#. I can't vouch for the taste, however, as I've never personally tried it, but it does have a 4 out of 5-star rating from over 3,400 total reviews. With a rating that solid, I'm seriously considering purchasing it myself the next time I run out of the Lean Shake. Hope this helps!

Its A BOTTLE OF ASPIRIN. Just aspirin. Aspirin and other non steroidal can irritate the stomach (known side effect)

Sorry, I don't know. I had to get rid of it as it made me very sick. I think it was because of the lactose in it but I don't have it anymore to look at the label for you.

Not really. It depends on what else you're eating and how physically active you are. If you are eating a lot of foods that are high in cholesterol, then you need to be concerned. If you are consuming massive amounts of whey protein on a daily basis and not being physically active, there is cause for concern. I am not a doctor and I don't know your personal health situation. For me, after a year of using organic whey protein, my bad cholesterol has gone done and my good cholesterol is up. I also do hard physical work every day and watch my diet carefully. My son had to have his bodyfat checked for wrestling, so I had mine taken for the fun of it, and it was 10%. Hope this helps you.

It is a great product and am really grateful to have found this item online. Lactaid used to sell lactase enzyme drops many years ago but stopped selling the drops. I found Lacteeze works just as well. If I buy a gallon of milk, I put a quart or two in different containers to digest smaller amounts since I am the only one with the lactose problem. That way my husband can drink the other 1/2 gallon of untreated milk.
