Hi all, i have recently bought a 100% pure whey isolate. I know i am kinda lactose intolerant and thats why i bought a whey isolate, because i heard whey isolate contains very little lactose in it and its safe for lactose intolerance users to use it.
But after taking my 1st scoop, 3 hours later i started having slight stomach cramps. I researched around the internet about this problems and started having a few answers.
Firstly, its probably the first time im taking in large amount of protein in one go, so it takes time for my body to get use to it.
Secondly, it probably because im severely intolerant to lactose and thats why im reacting to the isolate which contains 1% of lactose.
However, i doubt im severely lactose intolerant because i can take in 1 cup of milk without any effect.
So i believed its the first reason im experiencing.
But i have asked around my friends, they said they never need to go through the "adaption" period for whey.
So right now im a bit confused, can anyone help me?
FYI: I bought the 5lb All The Whey pure whey isolate strawberry flavoured
eh!!!
same protein. . .
i cant exactly answer ur prob. . but sometimes, ur minds play a big part of it too. . .
all the best to you
product adjustment takes time. though i don't remember having such problems with protein supplement (creatine, yes) but my trainer once told me his adaptation period is about 5-7 days.
shouldn't hv any problems
anyway I poorer, buy ATW 15 lbs Protein Blend only.... isolate too ex for me :(
