is it OK to take a shake before bed time. and i drink plenty of water why does it make my stomach feel weird? i use "body fortress" super advanced whey. it seems good as far as calories and 52g of protein.

What do you mix your whey with? If milk try lactose free or water. Also when you say you feel "weird" like gassy?

rod · 07-13-2008, 06:34 PM

yea gassy and mild cramping.

rod · 07-13-2008, 06:35 PM

btw milk 8oz

It's because of the milk sugars. The whey you're using has plenty of milk sugars in it. Milk normally leaves people feeling a little bloated for the same reason. Try taking some cheap dairy digestant...that will probably help.

Thats how protein is, well to me at least, gassy lol love them dutch ovens. Makes you wanna crap I use lactose free milk and it helps a bit.

Damn I just ran out or whey the other day and I went to pick up my usual 10lb of ON Whey holy crap it went up 10 dollars I'm paying $82 now! I gotta find an alternative.

Hulk: the shipping on a 10lb tub of protein could be pretty annoying.

Pity: What the hell? I pay like 35-40 at MOST for 5lb tubs of ON. That's pretty weird...

I don't usually shop online for supplements unless I can find a really good deal because at times it seems like they lower the price of supplements but jack the prices on the shipping.
