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 have been using their antibiotic for Lactose Intolerance for years and love it (I dislike Lactaid brand vs. this brand). This product I didn't purchase for myself but it does help someone I know with IBS.

You can do either according to my naturopath. But if you have a tendency to have upset stomach, you can take the magnesium with a meal. I find the magnesium doesn't create such problems since it is in highly absorbable glysinate form. It helps to calm you too so you get the best effects right before bed

hello, good day, in my experience many years of gastric problems, I have taken many kinds of digestive enzymes, papaya, ox bile, amylase, pancreatin, etc. separately and also in compounds supplements. Unfortunately many doctors prescribe pills and do not address our real conditions, this betaine HCL is a great help to me because descomposicon aid in fat, protein and making it much easier my digestion. Do not forget you many enzymes and assume that our body produces naturally in the mouth, stomach, intestine and with this product have extra help to foster their development.

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.

Well, I really don't know. But try to disolve it in natural juices full of fibers, to avoid irritating your stomach. Always take these pills with food. Always! Regards,

I do not see any mention of a lactose ingredient in this product. I do know that our two cats, especially our female cat, is so much better with the use of these prebiotics. She constantly had tummy troubles and they are now gone. We have been using this product faithfully for three years.

Hello - I use this once a day in the morning on an empty stomache partnered with two Neocell SuperCollagen + C Type 1 and Type 3 pills, as part of my anti-aging skin care. It doesn't upset my stomache and I really love it. I have been using it for close to 4 months now. I am going to be 50 years old in October of this year and certainly don't look or feel it (not to brag). Look me up on facebook - Rubi DePompa - so you can see the results. You can also contact the company. That's what I did, and I certainly do not work for them or receive any compensation. :-)

I would just do before first and last meal, i've takin it then didnt eat until hours later (forgot i took it) and it didnt upset my stomach or anything. I think just taking it before food is suppose to control your hunger later so I dont think it would matter when you took it.

I believe it will. I am not a doctor. From what I understand if you drink it with a meal it will cause your body to pass a large portion of the sugar that would have been absorbed. From what I read it has about a two hour effect on your stomach. So you would want to rink it just before or after high carb or meals with a high sugar content. I have been drinking it for about two months and I have not had a blood test done since so I can't tell you for sure.

No, it's not lactose free. Most weight gainers won't be. If you are lactose intolerant I would suggest Muscle Milk. Despite its name is contains no milk.

I would check with your physician first, but don't see any inherent reason why this should be a problem for under 10. It is a milk product; I am mildly lactose intolerant, but have not had any problem with this product, and I take 1 scoop twice daily. Capsules would probably be easier for a child to swallow than the powder, which is not meant to be dissolved. It is supposed to pass trough the stomach and into the intestines to work, and that is why it works best on an empty stomach with a full glass of water to flush it through.

I am not 100% sure but I don't think so. I am lactose intolerance myself and when I mix it with lactaid milk, I have no problem.

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.

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.

It's not acidic for me. I however find this company products to be very friendly to my stomach. Try a small amount for surety. Sorry I can't be of more help. Wish you well. And remember to drink a lot of water when taking any supplements otherwise it might affect your stomach.

No. I got sick by drinking Anchor Milk. Vomiting, loose motion and bloated tummy for a while. Still I have lingering symptoms.I stopped drinking this milk product.
