Stomach issues: For those, like me, who react very unpleasantly to the lactate component of whey, is there a way to offset the gastric effects by possibly taking a anti-lactose pill or something, just before drinking a Whey shake?

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

I always mix with one liter water.and that will get hydration benefits. And one tip... I am not sure it will help everyone but it did help me and some friends, when I get series dehydrate I will mix one pack with a can of Coca-cola with ice then drink it, the headache will gone very fast. Just personal experience. with food poisoning stomach I won't recommend it. And i think mix with one liter water and drink slow may be better.

Hi there! We're sorry for any concern caused. Unfortunately, we cannot advise you on supplement reactions as we are not licensed medical professionals. Our best suggestion to you in this case would be to discontinue use and speak to a doctor about these side effects.

YES!!! I was casually taking that much and more and just yesterday I went through the most horrible side effects, so that I can no longer take it all. It can cause lactic acidosis, which you can look up, and terrible stomach pains. It was working great for me, but then yesterday I thought I was going to die. Be very cautious!

I have added it to my yogurt smoothies with success. I am super lactose intolerant and can not seem to tolerate any dairy unless it has been treated first. I stirred in about 10 drop (a large container size) and waited a couple days before using it. I had to stir it a few times a day too because it is a lot thicker than say milk or cream.

I believe you refer to the "flush" people often receive from products such as niacin. This product does not make me react in any way, whether with or without a full stomach. Who knows, every one is different and some may suffer from a flush, some may not.

That's the awesome thing about this... It's a powder. I mix it in my protein shake. Don't even taste it :). Went with this because I hate the pills too.

There were no adverse effects however I had no reduction in glucose counts from drinking the milk. I do not reccomend it because no benefits in using a product that may or may not cause adverse effects over time is a risk not worth taking. This is not to say the product doesn't work, it just didn't work for me.

Please tell me how I can do it? I just start with lactaid and add some yogurt? I dont know why this is such a hard thing to find on the internet. Do I need to add sugar if I dont want it sweet? Thanks

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!

I have tried it, but not consistently. But I would recommend sipping with food, because it upset my stomach without. Also it's only around $5.00/box at whole Food, don't know why it's so costly on here.

Organic cane juice sugar, Stevia, bamboo fiber, pea fiber, flax seed powder, and apple fiber.... I had to quit using as I figured out it was causing serious stomach irritation. Cleared up within 2 days of stopping... It irritated my stomach which is sensitive... Thought at first was the roughage diet I was on with it... Nope was the shakes... Went through 3 46 oz jars before I found out!

No is not lactose free product because it uses whey protein on his ingredients. If you´re intolerant to lactose you can drink it whitout milk, but after consult your physician.

My son is lactose intolerant as well and we use coconut milk, which works great!

I bought this "miracle whey protein" but found it high calorie, tastes bad and also is not considered a "meal" replacement which I was looking for. Not sure why Dr. Oz is not recommending it. Hope that helps.

From what I have noted on the container, there is fructose, which is listed before stevia. I don't think there is enough of either to cause any real issues as I am hypoglycemic and the amount of sugar in the whey protein is negliable compared to other preparations and I have used this product for years on and off.

Says on the bottle microcrystalline cellulose, magnesium sterate, silicon dioxide, veggie tabs. They do carry a 500 mg forskolin. I've been taking the tabs for a month now, I'm on my last 10 pounds to lose. I so see more muscle as im loosing. I also feel more energy without the gitters, I also feel my tummy flattening. I'm taking two tabs a day in the morning 30 minutes before I eat. This is a very simple process. It's a slow process. I like it and I was a hydroxy cut fan. I didn't like feeling shaky. Good luck!
