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.

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.

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!

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.

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.

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!

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.

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 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.

Post. I personally don't use it, my best friend does. It won't hurt you to drink it before but it's best for after to feed your muscles.

I usually take it before I eat and before I workout. I have a very sensitive stomach and it hasn't bothered me at all:-)

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.

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

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,

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.

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!

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.
