So I have past problems with taking protein powder as a supplement and it has caused me to get kidney stones. This time around I cut back to a protein shake every other day and only one, but I still produced a stone.
I am wondering if anyone has some good advice in how I can still get my protien intake.
-Protein bars?
-Isopure Protein Powder?
I was taking EAS Whey Protein powder.

Protein powder=kidney stones
They fail, and they alone, who have not striven.

I’m guessing here, but I'm thinking the protein powder causing the stones (only guessing). But since there is very little calcium to cause stones, it could be more of a food allergy with the whey protein (just guessing). Might want to have a food allergy test done just to make sure everything else is OK. I very much agree with bbrock293 on water intake, increasing it to a gallon, but that depends on body size (check BB for the correct amount). Good Luck
If youre not the lead dog . the scenery never changes.

As Dr.P asked, the type of stone determines the type of intervention/treatment. Usually though, protein supplement shouldnt cause an issue. Its more about solutes falling out of solution. Thats why more water can help
Potassium - avacado, banana, dates, figs, grapefruit, kiwi, mango, nectarine, orange, papaya, poms, prunes, raisins. Also milk (Ca isnt bad with stones all the time) and nuts are nice sources.
BUT figs, nuts, and kiwi are high in ocalates. So those are bad with stones.πβπInπβπ
