Common Questions and Answers about Eas soy protein powder
protein
Well - you have got to have a liquid - so the options are water, milk, or soy/almond/rice/coconut milk. Then you have to have some source of protein. Other than protein powder, you are pretty limited. You don't want to use raw egg. You could use nuts or peanut butter. Other sources of protein such as cooked meat or fish wouldn't be particularly appetizing in a smoothie.
Yea I'd try to avoid the protein powder and get the protein I need from the food I eat. I'm a vegetarian so I get my protein from tofu and other foods made from soy, beans, nuts, and dairy products. You don't know all the ingredients in the protein powder so I'd ask my doctor about it.
I think the rice protein powder should be fine, then, as long as it's the protein and not just brown rice powder. Soy is a more complete protein, but if you isolate protein, you've got protein no matter the source. And the almond milk is also a good source as long as it doesn't have too much sugar in it. You can also buy chicpea flour, though I'm not sure of the taste and it probably isn't digestible raw.
I tried googling this earlier in my pregnancy and didn't like what I found... that none are really "good" for me or baby right now. I went with veggie & fruit smoothies and used soy milk as it had higher protein content (vs other but mills). But I want to know if anyone else has found out anything else!
Soy products/tofu are good sources of protein, however, if you have thyroid issues, you should not eat/drink soy.
Beans and legumes are also good sources of protein, as are eggs, dairy (milk, cheese, yogurt) and whole grains. I don't eat soy, a lot of beans or legumes, so, unfortunately, I can't provide recipes, but you can do a search.
I found a vegetable based protein powder in the health food section of the market by Naturade. It is Soy-free and dairy-free. I make smoothies every morning with this. I also found Hemp Milk at Whole Foods which is completely dairy, soy and salt free, in addition to salt free soups, chicken broth and other quick prep stuff. The diet is extremely restricted, but it's only for a limited time and for a very, very good reason.
Try making your own with peanut butter, nuts, avocado or other protein boosters.yogurt, milk or almond milk as protein sources. I wouldn't buy protein powders as you don't actually know what is in them besides what is listed like arsenic, lead, mercury.
leafy greens are good sources of folate, a key nutrient that helps prevent neural tube defects. Making shakes with fruits and vegetables can also help you reach your dietary fiber intake goals during pregnancy.
Stop eating red meat; eat fish, foods with fiber and fruits... if you're sold on protein products, go with Soy Protein; such as Twinlab's Vege Fuel...great for Mass gain and lots of Aminos. 0.8gm per Kilogram of bodyweight. 2.2#/kg (i.e. 150# รท 2.2 = 68kg x0.8 = 54.6gm of protein [or about 4 scoops of protein powder] ) Most protein powders offer about 25-30gms per serving.
I'd try to do some shakes. Get a protein shake like Vega and blend in fruit and vegetables. At least you can try to drink it down quickly. I understand where you're coming from! Protein is really important so be sure to add the powder and vary your fruit.
Hi, I need help to choose good protein powder. I don't get enough protein from my food. I'm exercising 4-5 times a week at least one hour in the gym ( some days classes and some days cardio). My friend recommended to buy protein powder to build muscles and lose more weight. I have been reading a lot that 100% and most natural whey powder is really good but there are so many different ones and I don't know what to choose. Can you help me please?
Kinda new to this PVC - Bigeminy "fun". Trip to the ER, wore a heart rate monitor for 2 months, visit with a cardologist. Pretty much was told what you all are saying...nothing to worry about.
But they sure can last for hours and make me feel terrible.
This past month I did pretty good. Very few. Feeling better, I went back to my routine where I have a soymilk protein shake for breakfast. 3 days into it, my bigeminy returned.
I also ate a ton of dairy (cereal w milk, cottage cheese, cheese, cream cheese). You can also buy protein powder from GNC (check w OB first) and mix it in smoothies or get it in smoothies from Jamba Juice or another smoothie place. I also ate lots of yogurt which is also good for the tummy. I wouldnt avoid dairy it doesn't necessarily cause constipation some people have the opposite from it and more than anything your body needs a TON of calcium in pregnancy.
