Hey,
I've been lactose intolerant for about a year now. I've been taking isopure and I'm not too happy with it. Taste isn't the issue. I'm just not seeing benefits as I used to see them.
Could someone recommend a good lactose free protein powder that's good. Low to zero sugar would be great.
I was interested in taking "Myofusion, Gaspari Nutrition," but I'm not sure if it is lactose free.
I appreciate any help.
Vinny

Lactose Free Protein Powder

I am lactose intolerant, I can't digest Myofusion or any of the comercial blends available, eventhough they content lactase...don't waste your money on any of these proteins.
At the moment I am taking CNP pro-peptide which is very low in lactose and contains added probiotics and yogurt organisms which helps in protein digestion and gut health.

I mix the pro peptide 1 scoop and 1 scoop of whey isolate unflavor which is lactose free

This has worked for me with excellent results, however if you want to play safe go for the whey isolate, there are good brands out there like Allmax isoflex or the one I posted above from NOW foods

ALLMAX Isoflex and Isonatural is 98% lactose free. I have friends who are lactose intolerant and they use Isoflex with no problems at all.

i do take lactose pills just for small meals here and there if needed
i've tried taking the lactose pills while taking a normal whey protein with milk, but since the protein takes time to digest i would have to continuously take the lactose pills which is inconvenient
also i've tried the 98% lactose free protein, that didn't help at all. it didn't bother me as much, but still was irritating.
i do have a big tub of 98% lactose free protein sitting at home. i just mix it (1/4 of a scoop) with my isopure every now and then

Lactose intolerance? GI issues? Perfect. Read on...
Enter Humapro...
I've used whey & milk based protein powders for years. My fav's were ON 100% Whey, BSN Syntha 6, Gaspari Myofusion & BNRG Proto Whey.
Lately, I have been feeling extra bloated, not digesting properly, GI upset etc. At the same time my buddy Joe Thomas switched from IDS after using ALR Industries Humapro & other supplements exclusively for a period of about 3 months based on a bet from ALR.
Joe got me on Humapro initially. I was curious but it was hard to give up my chocolate protein shakes. Man... add some natty PB & a banana or even frozen yogurt in the off season. LOVE! I still crave a shake once in a while. But I love my gut not being so damn bloated and upset.
Humapro 1 tab = 1 scoop = 25gm protein with only 5 cals so you need to add calories from fats or carbs if you used protein powders in your macro's of a more strict diet, especially if attempting to gain mass. I choose not to overload and actually may be taking in a few less cals now that I use Humapro 2-3 x daily pluse 3-4 solid food meals.
But I am gaining lean mass and slowly losing bodyfat without any changes in training. My cardio is sporadic depending on my midnight work schedule. I get in anywhwer from 2-4 20-30 min sessions weekly. I weight train 3-4 days per week but due to elbow/shoulder tendontitis/impingement syndrome only hard & heavy on legs & back but still gaining lean mass!?
No I am not pimping ALR's stuff. I would never promote something that I did not use or believe in. I am not downing other supplements. There is much good out there, much useless, and much bs!
Humapro tabs & powder, CR2 creatine, Chain'd Out bcaa's, Chain'd Reaction carbs, WTF pre workout, Animal Pak multi, Animal PM sleep/recovery/gh, Fish Oil, Vit C, joint supp, baby aspirin... that's my supp stack.My views and opinions are for general health information only and are not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis or treatment.

I've noticed that Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey and 100% Natural Whey both contain lactase, the enzyme responsible for helping to digest lactose. This is the same stuff found in Lactaid tablets. So, while perhaps not lactose free, these protein powders shouldn't give those of us who are lactose intolerate any problems. I've been consuming the 100% Whey product for a while now with no ill effects.
I recently placed an order for ON's 100% Natural Whey. It looks interesting to me as it contains Stevia as a sweetener instead of Sucralose. (I don't think I've ever actually tried anything with Stevia, so I don't know if I'll like it better or not.)

pretty much all 100% whey isolate proteins are lactose free. If I were you I would look into isolyze by Species nutrition.

I have the same issue and Myofusion destroyed me, do not recommend, the ones that do not give any issues are:
1. LG Sciences Lipotropic Protein, the ONLY blend I can tolerate, great profile, taste is awkward at first, but now I crave it (Vanilla)
2. ON Platinum Hydrowhey, all flavors are great, can't go wrong with it
3. Dymatize Iso-100, not as good tasting as Hydrowhey, but good nonetheless and cheaper.
Hope this helps...

Now common sense would tell you that anyone PIMPING a product and not getting paid to do so is actually using the product and reaping great results.
I am not knocking protein powders including whey, whey isolate, whey hydrosalate, combo's etc. What I am saying is that I am not greatly lactose intolerant. I can eat ice cream and have my cheesecake. I have over the last several months had GI issues and they are gone now that I'm off protein powders and on ALR Industries Humapro. Not to mention that Chain'd Out is superior to the once great Scivation Xtend.
Think about product use and pimping. Layne Norton, friend of mine, pimps Scivation Xtend or uses it anyways. But he says glutamine is "bunk" and doesn't not work outside of some minor immune boosting. But yet glutamine is in the Xtend and competing with the bcaa's limiting their effectiveness.My views and opinions are for general health information only and are not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis or treatment.

How much of this rice protein is actually being used for protein synthesis. Forget the haterz on here. Mostly adolescent children. Go to ALR Industries web site, do some research, check out Humapro! You'll not regret the switch. I didn't although it took weeks to not miss my chocolate shakes.

Have a look at Platinum Isolate Supreme, it offers the following:
- 27 grams of protein per serving
- Zero fat, sugar & lactose
- Great flavoring
- Excellent price compared to the competition ($56 for 5 pounds)

Pretty much any protein powder that has whey concentrate will have lactose. You'll want to stick to an isolate to avoid most of the lactose.
Xtreme Formulations Ultra Peptide 2.0 only uses whey isolate and casein protein in the blend. 51%/49%. No concentrate and no fillers. Just ultra premium protein sources.
Also, it has hands down the best flavoring in the protein market. Nobody's flavoring can touch it.It's hard to win an argument with a smart person. It's damn near impossible to win an argument with a stupid person. - Bill Murray
