Guidelines For Lactose Free Protein Shakes

By Ines Flores


Different people have different opinions about diets so depending on who is asked, one will always get a different answer. Well, everybody is different and this is why their bodies may not work in the same exact way and need the exact amount of different nutrients. For instance there are some people whose bodies are lactose intolerant therefore they usually have some unpleasant symptoms if they take protein shakes that have been made from casein of whey. Lactose free protein shakes are recommended for such people.

Many people who are on diet, bodybuilding or have undergone weight loss surgeries prefer to take these shakes because this will help them to meet their nutritional needs. These people are always advised to read the nutrition label on everything they buy so that they can determine the source of the protein and the amount of fat, sugar and calories. If they are intolerant to anything, they can find out if it is available from this label.

Lactose refers to the type of sugar that is found in milk. This sugar is usually broken down by the enzyme lactase inside the small intestines. When someone has an intolerance problem to this substance, it means that their bodies cannot successfully digest it hence they end up having bloating and gas problems because the lactose moves to the colon where it is broken to small pieces by certain bacteria.

After the lactase has been taken to the large intestines and the breaking down has taken place, the victim will soon start to get some weird health symptoms like running stomachs, gas and also bloating. This can really make one uncomfortable therefore they must try to avoid it.

It can be found naturally in milk and products made from milk like yogurt, cheese or margarine. They can also be gotten inside the foods that have milk as one of the ingredients. Products that do not have lactose usually specify this on the nutrition label. For this reason, people must always make certain that they read the labels before buying something they are going to eat.

Protein shakes are foods that people take in order to get an additional nutrient but they cannot be considered as basic needs. They are made from many things such as eggs, soy, whey, casein, egg whites and collagen among other things. When one has lactose intolerance then all they have to avoid is the shakes that have been made from milk products.

These people are advised to consider the alternative sources of getting nutrients such as soy and egg whites since they will also give them the same amount of proteins they want without risking their digestive system. However, the shakes that have been made only by the use of collagen are not recommended because they only have a very small amount of protein in them.

If all the proper guidelines have been followed then one should be able to achieve maximum benefits from their protein intake without having any difficulties in their digestive system. For this reason, people must always seek advice from a nutritionist before starting any diet program.
