Are there any side effects to taking whey protein powder? i'm about to start taking it and am wondering if there are any adverse effects?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Whey protein powder: contains very little lactose and so many lactose intolerant folks can use it w/out issue. If you can't, there are lactose free whey protein powders on the market. Make sure it is from free range cattle rather than cows penned up and fed hormones and antibiotics. Peace and good health.
