Gainer, Protein, Dietary supplement


Muhammaf

Recommended Posts

Hey there, i bought a gainer “Carnivor Mass” it contains no milk no gluten (i’m lactose intolerant as well) but it can sometimes upset my stomack, why does it happen and what should i do? i got “Platinum Hydro Whey Isolate” but it causes my stomach to upset more often than a gainer.

I have ordered GlutenEase does it help to digest smth with gluten?

and I have ordered Lacto from EnzyMedica, does it help to digest milk products?

I would say give up the whey based gainers, look for Beef Protein by Julian Bakery, or Bulk Supplements, and Egg White Protein By Julian Bakery. I also add in cheaper Collagen proteins from various brands that are gluten free. IF you find a good gives you issues the best thing is to remove it from your diet for at least 6 months and see if the intolerance/sensitivity has gone away. I have had some go away over the years (I developed a whey allergy so that I am not even trying). I eat a diet heavy in Eggs, Meats, and healthy fats from various nuts, along with those supplements in a shake or pudding (set with gelatin) after workouts.
IF your celiac you can't eat gluten at all, the enzymes like GliadinX will reduce the severity of the reaction and might even eliminate it if it is a tiny crumb or a bit of flour dust....but you still chance your immune system going on the attack and it can take over 6 weeks for it to completely stop.

That is the name of a company, I have been using their Beef Protein Powder for a few months without issues, Frankly it is the cheapest I could find at $28 a kilo on Amazon.

Could I take enzymes with Beef Gainer every time? I’ve been told that enzymes are not good for health if you take them regularly.

Glutenease says it will help break down casein as well as small amounts of gluten, for example cross contamination at a restaurant, but this supplement nor any other are designed to allow you to purposefully consume gluten if you have celiac disease. It doesn’t contain AN-PEP, which has been shown in studies to break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, which is what I look for in a gluten enzyme that is designed to mitigate cross contamination.

@Ennis_TX is giving you good advice, best to change the bulk powder to a brand that is gluten and casein-free.

Just looked at the product you mentioned, while it does appear to be gluten and dairy free, I assume your getting gastric distress from it still? The large amount of carbs in it could be causing issues. I myself had to give them up a while back due to glucose issues and found my gut was much happier with a lower carb  diet. But everyone is different in this respect. Personally I use a very high protein diet (250-300g) and keep my daily total carbs under 40g most of which is just fiber from the nuts and seeds I eat. I get my energy from healthy fats (100-200g varies from bulk to cut).
You might try making your own bulking shakes, if you can have carbs try real ones and complex, sweet potatoes are perfect, they are also relatively flavor neutral. Bake in batches and measure and use for your carbs in a shake, with nut butters, beef protein/egg protein, and flavorings/sweeteners of choice (I like oooflavors and a blend of stevia/monk fruit) You can also throw in a few tsp of cinnamon or raw cocoa powder. I tend to make protein puddings out of beef protein, egg white powder, steiva, monk fruit extract, flavor drops and set with gelatin. I also mix in other things.

For enzymes, there is only a issue if you take too much it can make you nauseated, honestly look at whats in the blends and take them in ratio for your diet
One USP unit of Lipase activity digests 1 mg uEq. of fatty acid per minute at the pH of 9.0 at 37°C
One USP unit of Amylase activity digests 1 mg of dry USP potato starch (Carbs)
One USP unit of Protease activity digests 1 mg of casein (milk protein or other proteins)
I take both pig pancreas enzymes and supplemental ones as my pancreas does not work fully. If I fail to take the right amounts I can get various issue but most notable are oily stool, Diarrhea, gas and bloating. I liked Realzymes as they made to for different diets.

Bananas & milk are good for your health. If you indulge in buying pricy supplements and steroids then you will end up buying even more products to fortify the side effects of the products you bought before.

i dread eating steroids. the thing is that i’m lactose intolerant as well, i’m curious can i eat ice cream with enzymes Lacto? i haven’t tried it yet, u know i can get away with eating gluten sometimes but it is impossible if i drink milk))

If you want to try it, I have had a lot of luck with keto based diets just upped my protein when bulking to gain more mass then cut it back to cut. Mix with daily cardio, 5-10miles a day, 30-60mins weight training daily (different groups on rotation), and when cutting times come I do intermittent fasting once in ketosis and my body slims down to single digit fat % in a bit over a week.

      Welcome to the forum, @Beagirl! What you are feeling is what we have all felt to one degree or another and we typically feel it more intensely when we already have a laundry list of health issues to work around. It's often the result of a sense of loss . . . of having to say goodbye to some good foods that we enjoy that may have been part of a shrinking list of things that are left that we still found pleasure in. And also for many it represents a social loss . . . not being able to accept dinner invitations from family and friends because you are unsure if they know how to cook gluten free . . . not being able to go out to just any restaurant with family and friends because their menu doesn't have gluten free offerings and if it it does, are they careful with regard to cross contamination issues?

      Recently diagnosed with a problem with no cure is annoying and upsetting. Why does this happen? I have enough health problems to deal with and now this. I can live with reading labels and giving up things at I'm 68 years old. I can cook with gluten free everything and not give up good healthy food, look for gluten free restaurants, do all I'm told to do to manage the problem. So I don't know why I'm complaining since it is manageable.

      Amy's has been my go-to  for gluten-free meals for years. Her cooks need to have feedback--for example, the two enchiladas with authentic Mexican sauce, very tasty. The 1 enchilada w span rice &beans is a disappointment ...the enchilada is terrible with its collection of corn &green peppers instead of cheese and sauce. Not tasty at all.

      You also mentioned eating 10g of gluten for 2 weeks are longer do you think less then 6 weeks is ok? I heard 2 weeks gives false positives what about 4  weeks 10g whole wheat a day? I read 4 slices whole wheat equals to 10g gluten. Would eating 4 slices whole wheat bread a day along with elimination of other gluten suffice? Also do you recommend taking a multivitamin to play it safe or when I take the test ask for full vtamin blood test to see all vitamin levels and whatever im low in take that vitamin? Thanks

      Hello again, @JessikaSwallow78! I think you already posted in another section of the forum. My goodness! You are dealing with quite a few health challenges! Anemia and vitamin/mineral deficiencies are very common with celiac disease. Celiac disease damages the lining of the small bowel and reduces the ability to absorb vitamins and minerals from the food we eat. The lining of the small bowel is the section of the intestines where these things are absorbed and this issue may also be causing your discomfort after eating.  Constipation and diarrhea are classic GI symptoms with celiac disease. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder and you already have two autoimmune disorders, namely, Raynauds and Fibromyalgia. I mention this because autoimmune diseases tend to cluster. When you have one, you often acquire others with time. I think your next step is to get tested for celiac disease. The initial step of testing involves a blood draw from which they check for antibodies which are fairly specific to celiac disease. Ask your doctor to order these two lab tests, TTG-IGA and Total IGA (aka, Immunoglobulin IGA), when he/she does the blood draw. Make sure you don't start cutting back on wheat products in the mean time or you will invalidate the testing. Keep us posted.
