Gaspari Myofusion Probiotic Series Causing Indigestion

[woodenrims]

I'm not sure if anyone else has had a similar reaction, but I believe I am having a reaction very similar to a lactose intolerant reaction to the Myofusion Probiotic series protein powder. I am lactose intolerant and tonight I had to quit my workout early because I felt so nauseous and bloated. I was wondering if anyone else that is lactose intolerant has had this experience with protein powders made from anything other than 100% Whey Protein Isolate. I have previously taken ON 100% Whey (100% Whey Protein Isolate) without incident, so I think I am going to switch back to a 100% Isolate blend. I am curious if Gaspari has heard anything like this happening before. I'm extremely disappointed because I absolutely LOVE the taste and consistency a lot more than ON Protein. I also love that it does have a wide variety of protein blend, but I just can't deal with the nausea anymore. It is really beginning to hinder any progress I was making. If you are not lactose intolerant, I would highly suggest this product, but if you are, I would suggest staying with Whey Protein Isolate ONLY.

Your own fault for buying a protein blend when you know you're lactose intolerant.

Thanks for the insightful comments

Anytime.

A product with dairy is causing stomach issues with someone who is lactose intolerant. Go figure.

First of all, I never said it was anyone's "fault" but my own. I was just wondering if others had a similar reaction.

Whey Protein should not cause a lactose intolerant reaction. But I'm sure you knew that already.

It depends on the quality of the whey used, many whey protein does in fact bother those with lactose issues. Look into a higher end whey next time around (any pure isolate product).

Do you have a suggestion on a higher end whey? I have used ON in the past and can't remember having a reaction, but I might have just got lucky.

Try casein or egg protein

only the ON hydrowhey is pure isolate. the 100% whey is Isolate/concentrate. pretty stupid buying a blend with probiotics and concentrate when your lactose intolerant.......

The probiotics should have no affect on someone because they are lactose intolerant from what I understand. And from what I've been reading, there is more lactose in concentrate than isolate, but shouldn't be enough of it to cause a lactose intolerant reaction. I don't have any issues eating greek yogurt, so this thread is an attempt to try to understand what actually is causing the indigestion and how to avoid it in the future.

Myofusion is not lactose free, IntraPro would be a better option for you as it is an isolate protein.

1 cup milk, 1 cup water, 1 banana, 2 scoops chocolate intrapro, with ice = WIN
