What do you do when you MUST use soy protein powder because of life

threatening allergies to whey protein? My dh can only do soy, should he not

be using protein powder at all then? Just wondering what to do here.

Thanks!

If a person must use soy, I would think the key is to space it so it

is not taken close in time to the synthroid. I would think a 2 hour

buffer on either side of the synthroid would be the minimal cushion.

Also, adding Amino Infusion 5000 once a day (serving equal to 30 g

protein) might help, especially before or after exercise. It is an

array of easily digestible amino acids derived from beef extract. I

get mine from www.vitalady.com. Comes in raspberry, grape, and

tropical punch. I like either the raspberry or grape mixed in crystal

lite. Five tablespoons of the Amino Infusion 5000 equals 30 g protein.

I am curious. What specifically is your dh allergic to in whey

protein? I have heard of people having severe milk

allergies/intolerances to dairy products, but they could still use

the predigested whey protein because of the process used to make the

protein. So if there is another allergy, I would like to know about

it. Thanks.

I guess, as always, you have to weigh the pros and cons and make an informed

decision. Unless there is some reason he should not definitely use soy, then I

don't think it will hurt him. This was just for information purposes, not to

actually scare someone away from using protein altogether.

Just my opinion.
