Help!! Protein Issues

It seems everytime I drink a protein drink with or without milk my stomach gets upset. Does anyone else have this problem or is it something I'm doing wrong? Currently I am mixing 1 scoop vanilla protein with 8 oz. orange Crystal Light. I've also tried just protein powder with 1% milk and it still upsets my stomach. I thought maybe I was lactose intolerant and I started with the Crystal Light but still the same thing. I'm not getting in the required 60-70 grams per day that I should and I'm beginning to get worried. I just don't want to loose any hair!! Regina

Have you tried different brands of protein? I like the unjury brand (get through internet) of protein powder. How about isopure? Good luck, Linda

yes I did order some unflavored that I am going to try in different flavors of Crystal Light. I've also tried the Isopure but haven't found a flavor that agrees with me. Regina

Im with Linda, you should try Isopure.. they sell it at vitamin shoppe and GNC. 40grams of protien per bottle and no dairy in it, pure clean whey protein in yummy flavors. another tip... I make my protein with 1% milk but I add 1 1/2 TBS of sugar free pudding... yummy. My favorite is 2 scoops vanilla protein (46g) 8 oz milk 3 Ice cubes 1 1/2 TBS SF Pistachio pudding (I sift out the nut bits just in case) telling you its way yummy and tones down the protein flavor. Good luck. Tairie

Thanks Tairie that sounds like a good idea. I will try that one and let you know. I've been using the Designed Whey from Walmart. Are there better brands than that one that are easier to handle? Regina

I have not had any problems with the proteins so I can't tell you if there are brands that are easier to handle, personally I like a brand they sell on www. bariatriceating. com called IDS, they have a banana and a chocolate that are pretty good. The vanilla I have is another brand but I can't remember which since I dumped it into a gallon ziploc bag LOL. GOOD Luck. Tairie
