Avatar m tn I'm 27 Male and I'm a vegetarian by diet [which includes eggs and diary] I have severe problems with hunger and feel hungry all the time. I have started taking some protein powder's like optimum nutrition [ 100% whey - Don't know if this has any side effects. ]. I try to workout 4 times a week. But I get acid reflux and head aches that last for a long time i fI don't eat on time. I have noticed I feel low on blood sugar and shivering of hands and heart racing symptons.
Avatar f tn Personally wouldn't go with the Optimum Nutrition brand. It doesn't have the best quality whey protein exclusively, but mixes in three different types, so you can do better. And be careful with these supplements -- most have ingredients in them that aren't very good for you. A good health food store will have very good protein supplements that don't add sugar or preservatives and you can flavor them by just adding a banana or some strawberries.
Avatar f tn Ive heard whey is good from many people but theres just so manh different whey proteins out there
Avatar m tn Hi, whey protein is just dried milk without the calcium caseinate, lactose, and fat... plain and simple. It's best to use whey protein only for pre-and-post workout nutrition. You're really better off getting the rest of your protein from real food. Drink it 30-45 minutes before working out. For post-workout nutrition it gets a little trickier because the mixture depends on your goals. The post-workout shake is made from skim milk, whey protein.

5606554 tn?1372445380 The three common ones are whey, soy, and casein protein. “Whey is the most commonly used, because it’s a water-soluble milk protein,” says Peter Horvath, PhD, associate professor in the department of exercise and nutrition sciences at the State University of New York at Buffalo. “It’s also a complete protein, so it’s got all those advantages.” (Complete proteins contain all nine of the amino acids necessary for human dietary needs.
Avatar f tn I've read somewhere that increasing your antioxidents can help Vitaminwater makes one called XXX that I really like the taste of. Blueberries and pomigranite (sp?) are good for this too but some people don't like the lil seeds in the pomagranites.. :) I actually got the XXX for my husband who is starting ct detox tomorrow. Oh and I think the omega 3 and 6 are good for this too.

Avatar m tn Hi Rex, I drink whey protein every morning for breakfast, along with fruits and veggies. The whey protein contains BCAA's, I think it helps me quite a bit.
467897 tn?1240251837 I just read a paper challenging the low protein theory for cirrhotics. I will find it and get it to you. Was very interesting as they concluding that going low protein did more harm than good. Are you early cirrhosis? Any varicies?
Avatar n tn When I first consumed whey protein by itself, it happened. My body would twitch a little bit afterwards. Also, I would tend to go hypoglycemic from the whey. As I would fall asleep, I would feel a major jolt and my body would lurch a bit out of the bed. It took me quite some time to figure out that it was actually whey that caused it.
Avatar m tn From what I have read so far, they suggest whey protein isolate over whey protein concentrate. They say isolate has more protein but from natural factors website, it's suggested that isolate are treated with heat and are somewhat denatured. NaturalFactros also say this is why isolate is poor quality than whey protein concentrate. Now both contradict one another. But I believe concentrate is better since it is treated with less heat and other chemical process etc. What do you think?
Avatar n tn protein drinks and whey protein drinks aren't bad for growing boys. protein is the fastest way to spur muscle growth. i don't know what part of the world you live in, but you can find both of those products at Trader Joe's if that market is availible to you. If not you can find them at pretty much any health food store, major supermarket, or vitamin shop. some gyms like equinox sell those products also.
Avatar m tn Egg protein has about the same quality profile of Whey, however it is a moderate absorbing protein that the body uses over a greater amount of time. Casein protein is another dairy protein like Whey, however it is very thick and sticky and your body has a hard time breaking it down, which not only acts as a great anti-catabolic (prevents muscle breakdown) but also gives your body a good 6-8 hour slow but steady flow of protein.

479244 tn?1271563659 I would take it back. Remember that iron overload lowers SVR. "I was planning on still mixing my powder protein drink (with no iron , but too much sugar!) and just wanted the cans for when I am lazy and don't feel like mixing the powder." ROFL....mix it....you need the exercise....LOL. Or you can put it in the blender....or get one of those shaker cups. But if you insist on using the canned stuff.....

Avatar f tn Red meat makes HE worse and I get my protein from whey added to sugar-free carnation instant breakfast and I eat poached eggs and toast for lunch and a salad with turkey and cheese with an egg usually in the evening. For snacks I still eat the whey which Is unflavored and I can add it to anything. They wanted me to get it from plant based products, fish, chicken and turkey, cheese and eggs. I was a mess and they threatened me with a feeding tube.
Avatar n tn Whey protein will not affect your thyroid function. It comes from cows milk and is a by-product of the cheese making process. Soy would be a problem, that is too much soy.
