Protein Supplement if you can't have Whey?
Hello. Long time no post!
My son is 15 and has just started lifting. Nothing heavy, he just wants to get started, add a little muscle for both chicks and basketball. I have been working with him trying to make sure he uses proper form, etc.
He eats alot and gets a good bit of protein from food but I'd like to add a shake or two, particularly at night. However....
He has a condidion that I couldn't even begin to spell that causes his esophogus to swell if he consumes dairy. Eventually he has trouble swallowing food. It was much worse as he used to have to avoid peanuts, beef, rice, and dairy, but not it is just peanuts and dairy. So, he can't whey.
What would be a good protein supp for him? Any ideas?My Carb Cycling Progress - you can't hide from the numbers.

How does egg protein taste? He's a teenager so he doesn't have the "I can down any shake, not matter how bad it tastes" attitude yet.

Taste wise, you would be better off with pea protein. trueprotein.com has some good flavorings and they even use stevia.

I'll give it a try, though.

Use Bulk BCAA's, and fruit for the carbs if you want to spike insulin levels. Actually isoleucine and valine are coverted via gluconeogenisis to carbs(glucose) if needed, and leucine is ketogenic and super anti-catabolic. BCAA's are cheap too at nutraplent and IMO superior to whey.

Re:
Bodybuilders often take a powdered form of protein, the essential building blocks for muscle. Protein powder is generally consumed immediately after exercising, or in place of a meal. Having sufficient protein intake allows for efficient growth and repair of muscle tissue. As I know there are four kinds of protein powder:
Whey protein is the most commonly used type of protein. It contains high levels of all the essential amino acids not produced by the human body, and is absorbed by the body very quickly.
Casein protein is the richest in glutamine, an amino acid that aids in recovery, and has casomorphin which helps the body to absorb the amino acids over a long time.
Soy protein contains all essential amino acids, and is an alternative protein for vegetarians.
Soybeans also contain isoflavones, a type of phytoestrogen, which have a weak estrogenic activity.
Egg white protein is a lactose- and dairy-free protein.
You can buy these proteins from any stores.

I like this approach; a little untraditional to think of replacing protein shake w/bulk bcaa's. Originally Posted by BigDyl
