I'm still 5 months out from having surgery but I started using whey Protein and have noticed that there is a difference in the brands been doing some research but still haven't pin pointed it down. It's something to do with the lactose and different things they add. It causes serious stomach problems for me too. Hoping to get this figured out by time I have surgery any input on this would be great

I think muscle milk is lactose free.

you should use lactaid milk with you powders, I have been lactose intolerant for years, and love this milk, i get the fat free lactaid milk, its really good, and its not thin like Water, there are powders you can find that are lactose free just keep searching

There are drops that you can put in your milk to stop that, or you can switch to soy milk which is what I drink it's good for you and you will get your Protein with out the animal fat or mucus that it gives you.

I also cannot drink >4oz of milk without getting ill. I've even tried lactose free milk and have had problems. I just drink it slow to avoid discomfort. I unfortunately am allergic to the bonding properties in soy/almond/rice milk so that's out of the question.

Weirdest thing though: I always drink a grande vanilla roobios latte at Starbucks (half caffeine free herbal tea with half 2% steamed milk and 1 pump of sf hazelnut) so that comes out to about an entire cup of steamed milk and I could chug it without problems. This makes NO SENSE because steaming milk makes it sweeter because it releases more lactose. Go figure. Ps the drink is delicious and a great source of Protein (8-9g) - you guys should try it.

I also can drink a venti (20oz) earl grey tea with about 4oz of half&half without any discomfort, but GOD FORBID I even look at normal milk.

Soy slender has 7 Protein per cup and goes down super easy and tastes just like choc milk
