Question 1

i drink 500ml of whey , which is extracted after shredding cottage cheese from milk .. is it good n how much protein does it have ?

Accepted Answer

Yes it is good: Whey protein is 100% protein, and is probably the best source of protein. Yes it is good for you.

There are two types of protein in milk. Casein is milk protein, and whey is 'the other protein.' it is a good source of branched chain amino acids, and has been used by athletes and body builders.

Question 2

can we eat cheese(hard or soft) with cows milk together?(drinking cows milk after eating cheese)
does it block nutrients absorption such as protein and calcium?

Accepted Answer

: Yes, any Cheese and Milk can be eaten together. Since cheese is just curdled, cultured milk, it has the same proteins and calcium. Calcium can block the absorption of Iron found in meats, so they should not be eaten together.

Question 3

i am a 61 year old woman who is a vegetarian.  i eat nuts, eggs, fish, and cheese for protein.  i am losing hair. the cause? i am not real fond of fresh greens, but i eat a lot of citrus fruit, and sometimes fresh green vegetables.  i drink soy milk.  cou

Accepted Answer

There : There is a possibility that your hair loss could be from your diet (iron deficiency) or it could be from another cause such as a thyroid disorder, hereditary hair loss, over styling, a scalp condition, polycystic ovarian syndrome, or even lupus.  Before just assuming it is your diet, you should give your doctor a call.  They will be able to examine you and possibly run some simple blood test to rule out non-diet related reasons for hair loss.  Many of these are treatable, so having the correct diagnosis is key!  good luck!

Question 4

can yogurt and milk be taken together  in protein shake without powder?

Accepted Answer

Yes,but......: You can, but then it wouldn't really be a "protein drink

Question 5

what type of foods should i eat if i have internal hemorrhoids and a little polyp? sweets, yogurt, proteins, white cheese,cocoa and tea are forbidden?

Accepted Answer

Anything.: You can eat anything when you have internal hemorrhoids as long as you avoid constipation and don't strain. Easiest way to take a tablespoon of Metamucil dissolve in 12 glass of water and follow with one glass of water.

Question 6

i would like to know if my diet is healthy/sustainable.  daily: 4 eggs, an avacado, 20 oz of chicken breast, 500 calories of pecan halves and almonds, flax seed, 24 oz of non fat cottage cheese, 16oz of non fat greek yogurt, 2 scoops of protein?

Accepted Answer

Healthy diet: A healthy diet should have some of all the food groups- protein, fat, carbs, etc. The main concern with your diet is that it seems very low in fiber (other than some nuts and flax seed). Do you have any problems with constipation? Adding more fruits and vegetables and high-fiber carbs may help. Are you taking a multi-vitamin? You are probably not getting all your nutrients.

Question 7

is soy milk considered in the milk yogurt cheese group?

Accepted Answer

NO: Question if soy milk is in the same group as "milk, yogurt, cheese" group. NO. Soy milk is soy based, which is a different protein than cow's milk protein. Traditional milk, yogurt, and cheese are made from cow's milk. All these have alternative to cow's milk, such as soy, almond, coconut, etc.

Question 8

what is the effect of dairy (plain milk, plain yogurt, cheese, butter) on insulin level.

Accepted Answer

Insulin release: Hi. Most dairy products have some sugars in them, and they stimulate insulin release accordingly. Butter has no sugars, but is usually put on things that have sugars/carbohydrates, and as such, insulin is still released in response to the whole package. I advise nonfat dairy for everyone, not just diabetics. Heart disease is twice as likely in diabetes as it is in matched non-diabetics. Good luck!

Question 9

milk intolerant so switching to yogurt and cheese. what kinds of foodborne illnesses can i get from cheese?

Accepted Answer

Unpasteurized cheese: Although required by fda to be aged 60+ days to destroy bacteria, still possible for listeria, salmonella, e. Coli or other bacteria to cause illness. [google unpasteurized cheese for list]. Pasteurized cheeses should be safe if properly cooled. Cheese may still cause problems for milk-intolerant; try lactaid/dairy ease tablets as directed to prevent symptoms. Yogurt has good bacteria to help.

Question 10

my toddler loves milk.  how much milk should he consume in a day?  does that affect the amount of other dairy he consumes, like cheese and yogurt?

Accepted Answer

About 16 oz.: Most toddlers need about 16 oz a day of dairy products.  Low fat milk is recommended once they turn 2 years old.  Excessive milk usually results in a child not eating well, because it keeps them feeling satisfied.  It can also contribute to constipation.  There can also be chronic blood loss in the intestines, resulting in anemia in some children.
