Stomach issues This isn't related to this whey product, just whey protein in general.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?I have a big bag of Whey from a large warehouse chain, and I'd hate to waste the almost entire bag-full still left.

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.

It will be almost a year since you raised this question. I find it telling that the company has not provided a response. I'm doing product comparison and the ability to make it stomach digestion is the whole point. Thanks for asking!

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.

Hi, thank you for your question. I have been drinking this Soy protein. I can give you my comments. 1. No for body builder, 2. Yes for LACTOSE-INTOLERANT and 3. No for BULKING PHASE. If you want no. 1 & 3 yes, you may have to find whey protein from Soy or plants. Hope this helps. thanks

As other reviewers have already posted, this is magnesium oxide, the hardest to digest for some. I've taken it and haven't had any stomach problems, but it can cause nausea for some. Having had Roux-N-Y, must be careful of the stomach. My doctor recommends a protein-bound source such as Magnesium Malate or Glycinate as being the best, but to take at least Magnesium Citrate for higher digestability.

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.

It absolutely DOES NOT have the creatine in it like the regular Body Fortress Whey Protein has. This fact is why I do not buy the straight "Whey Protein", and instead purchase the Whey Isolate Protein. The creatine in the other makes me feel jittery.

My husband has cancer and i use this for him as a healthy alternative to ensure and similar products. He doesn't always get the protein he needs and this is how i give it to him. It has not helped him to gain weight but it has helped stabalize his weight loss. Ensure has all kinds of unhealthy ingredients that i don't care for my husband to drink, such as HFCS.

Yep. Your body just doesn't process it as quickly as whey, so use it to just get your overall protein intake up. You don't need to drink it right after working out. I sometimes drink one scoop mixed with two cups almond milk before bed if I haven't had enough protein during the day. It mixes a much thicker shake than whey protein.

No, you cannot. You do not have to use this particular recovery drink, but it does need to be a recovery drink. They are designed to replenish & repair your muscles faster with all you burn in a hard workout. A plain whey protein does not do that. You will get better results & be less sore with a recovery drink.

I actually didn't take the pills except for a couple of them whuch made me very ill. I suggest going on a low carb and low sugar diet. Rather than this stuff. I honestly am scared to know people are taking this poison. When I took it one hour before a meal it made me more hungry than ever. adding fiber will give you the same fullness and it is natural.

I use it as a breakfast shake w/fruit and greek yogurt. It has both Whey Protein (a fast burning protein) and Casein (a slow burning protein). I use a Whey only protein in the afternoon after workouts. Becuase of Casein's slow burning properties, it helps to keep my hunger at bay. Also Casein is a thick protein. It's normally it's used at night before bed because it takes so long to digest. The thickness helps the shakes not be so watery. On a side note, casein does contain amino acids which promote body mass. This could be a good thing or bad thing depending on your fitness goals.

I can only say that it has worked for me. I found out that I was gluten-sensitive and a little lactose-intolerant several years ago and switched to this product. It's a good product at a great price! If you find it doesn't work for you, try ON soy protein. It is more expensive, but I always got good service out of there products. I'm not competing, so I'm not as concerned about some of the things that you might be. Good luck!

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.

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.

They have a new option where you can get it in Whey. I ordered the soy version (even though the image said Whey) it still came to me correctly.
