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.

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.

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.

I buy 8oz bottles of water and keep them at room temperature. I sip some off the top and then add the creatine. It takes about ten minutes of shaking to get it really well-dissolved, but for me, I have to dissolve it really well in that fashion, or it causes GI discomfort.

I have read that also. I was very careful to pick a product that did not contain calcium. After I read your comment, I looked on the bottle again. I was unable to find calcium any where. Mine is the same as shown.I haven't had much luck with it. In the comment section, it helps some people and not others. One comment said to be sure and take it on an enpty stomach, at least one half hour before eating. I'll make sure that's how I take it, from now on. So far and I've taken quite a few, all it does is make me ravenous.

Go to Standard Process and bring up the information that you are concerned with. I know for me I had gone to a chiropractor that is also a nutritionist and he recommended this for me since I had my gallbladder out. I wouldn't be without it now as I take one with every meal and no more gas, bloating or upset stomach. It is all natural and works!!

I been practicing portion control so when I wake up I take a protein shake and then the pill and I am fine. I have taken them before on an empty stomach and been fine. No Jitters, No nausea. So I can say I think you would be fine except everyone is different so keep that in mind.

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.

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.

The instructions don't say so. I take it first thing in the morning with a protein shake and a few other supps with no stomach issues.

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 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.

I have found this product very effective in treating an upset stomach in my case, I am a 72 years old male. I do not know for sure whether it would be okay to put it in a drink and consume it over time but Lactobacillus GG means tiny organisms and they need to be thriving before being consumed. Best to follow the instructions exactly.

No whey. I use it because it is lactose free. Excellent product. Great source of protein. Have it with Almond milk, p-butter and a banana every morning.

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.

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.
