Milk can be allergan: Dairy products can be an allergan quite commonly in many patients! if youre trying to do the gallon a day of milk diet, then i advise against it! for two reasons: no nutrient should be obtained from only one source, which also limits you from obtaining all essential aminos! secondly, milk can be a common allergan. Make sure youre not allergic to it before consuming large volumes of milk.

Gaining weight: Other ways to get protein that are not from lean meats and seafood are plant based proteins such as avocados, nuts, tofu/tempeh, lentils, beans. There are also protein powders that are plants based such as chia powder and pea powder that are excellent ways to help get protein and develop muscle tone.
