I dont know the name, but try the flavorless powder available at GNC or search around for one that you like and sprinkle a little on stuff throughout the day. I hear yogurt covers up protein powder really well, but if you are having trouble with milk, then yogurt might not work for you. There is a woman at support group who just sprinkles small amounts on anything she says... just like salt. I guess it really adds up throughout the day. Also, coffee is another thing that is supposed to mask the taste well. These are just things that I have heard, because I don't usually supplement... although my hair is telling me maybe I should Good Luck getting your protein in! shawna

Hello, If it is the milk that is bothering you, I used to mix my GNC Designer whey chocolate with water and it tasted just fine! Some however will not taste too good, but that is worth a try. Tracy

Have you tried Lactaid? It is for people who are lactose intolerant. Maybe that would help. I am LI and also cannot even smell most protein drinks. Most of them are made with Whey proteins & that's what does me in. It all makes me vomit & feel really icky. I finally resorted to getting my protein through flavored soy milk (Slender Soy has no extra sugar) & powdered soy protein. The brand I got does no smell like soy. I mix soy milk with a scoop of the supplemental powder & add either strawberries or a banana for a change of flavor. It is delicious, I don't get gassy, never constipated, & although a month ago I thought I was starting to lose my hair some, I don't think it's going to happen. I don't know if the soy protein helps with those things but I wonder if it does. In addition, if you are memopausal, soy can make it so you don't need hormones! I had a hysteredctomy last fall & I don't get hot flashes. By the way, yesterday I made pudding using soy milk & added the powder also. It tasted great & supplied 20 grams per serving. Dixie
