lactose intolerant ?

[tonym]

as a long term sufferer of stomach related issues
it was suggested I might be lactose intolerant

I noticed i would especialy suffer within 30 mins of the gym

whilst reading up on the subject of what you can and cant eat,
I was shocked to read that protein bars and meal replacement drinks
are a big no no for sufferers

this would explain a lot,as always pre gym,I swallow a big protein drink,and
soon as i finish another big protein drink goes down.

is there any truth to this,that the bars and drinks are a potetial prob



I decided to cut all dairy out for a month

should i stop all the protein shakes and bars?

what can i use instead ???

thanks a lot

Soy protein should do the trick I think. You might be able to find soy protein bars too... I'm kind of busy right now or I'd so some searching for you. Try bulknutrition.com. That's where I order most of my goods from

Oh here ya go buddy:

Go down and select Yes for "Low Lactose?" and check out what all protein products they have for people with lactose problems. They have a bar finder also at the bottom of the page.

A more pure form of whey (isolate) works for me. There are varying levels of intolerance. You will have to do some trial and error to see what exactly affects you.

Some products dd lactase to their whey which should be grand if its relatively pure in the first place
