I saw my reg doctor. I have no insurance so specialist are out. I have been off whey for a week and I am still doing well. Just keeping my fingers crossed,. I actually feel better in general to be honest. Rita said I look better, healthier now. We shall see.

i gotta say, honestly, im surprised you havent tried this sooner. good to hear you're feeling better though. puking 5 out of 7 mornings for 5 years can't be fun.

I am suprised at myself as well. Rita too actually. I seem to be medically minded (I read medical diagnostic books for...fun.) and I see things in people when they tell me things (example I figured out a woman had burned out graves disease and her doc did not. Would have been dead in a month!) But I just did not think. Feel stupid about it too! I mean to tell you it has been hell for years. I just hope this holds. So far I feel great! I am like praying for real "PLEASE GOD PLEASE!"" really.

Maybe your bulimic. You didn't see if because you liked it lol jk

honestly a lot of whey makes me feel like shit too. i get really lethargic and lose the appeal to eat after a while. i usually stick to like 5-6 scoops a day at the absolute max, and even thats pushing it, because it just doesnt do me well. rather food, and lots of milk. fuckin love milk.

Jeff,

Do you have any history of Asthma or other respiratory ailment? My 5 year old son has asthma and when he has a 'triggering' event (he is severely allergic to certain types of mold) he pukes mucous. The doctor explained that because his lungs can't get rid of the build up of mucous it goes into his stomach which then causes him to 'get rid of it' by throwing up. I wonder if the whey or some other trigger is causing this.

Good luck with your health!

No asthma but that is what was going on I think. I would wake up at 7am sweating and I knew it was going to be a shitty day. So far another good day as I write this!

Friend of mine said the same thing about his gal blater. He was sick for 2 years before it got so bad he went to a dr. they cut it out that day.

I had similar issue and it was post nasal drip. Do you also find you have a sore throat and/or are clearing your through often? Dairy can definitely make it worse, but there are other factors, and other—for a BB—easier remedies. Before you give up whey completely, you may also want to try a steroid nasal spray (e.g., Nasonex), oral steroids (e.g., medrol), antihistimines, or an oral decongestant. Since you are still eating yogurt and heavy cream, the root cause may not even be the whey (this may just be an exacerbating factor). It is best to see a doctor, though—ideally, an ENT—because this could be caused by a structural issue, such as a deviated septum. In any event, good luck.

I am not sure about this yet but I think I have figured out a serious gastro issue I have been battling for 5 years now! About 5 out of seven mornings I wake up sick to my stomach and puke up a bunch of mucus. Sorry I know it is gross. Well then after this I cannot eat or drink for hours. this really effected my prep last year and I think overall growth period. Last week Rita suggested I suspend all whey protein drinks. She reasoned it was the only constant besides her the whole time! So last week I dropped the Whey from my drinks and have been using liquid egg whites, Greek yogurt, Natty PB, Heavy Cream, Grape seed oil, and a little no sugar added Quick. I have been feeling progressively much better. I have been hungry much more and that has not been there in awhile. So we will see what happens. Hope my improved health continues.

I wake up like that most mornings and I have a ton of sinus issues. I had surgery a year ago to laser out scar tissue built up around my sinuses. I went from getting a sinus infection every month to every 3 months, so the surgery did help. As far as the Whey Issue, what Whey were you drinking? Concentrate Hydrosylate etc??? Depending on the Whey maybe you don't have enough healthy flora in your stomach to break the protein down. Why don't you try adding enzymes and probiotics into your supplement regimen to aid in digestion!!!

Jeff Ive been reading up on blood types and nutrition as well. See if some of the things I see with some of my clients matches up. Like why can some guys eat 400 grams protein weigh 160 lbs and get shredded, but when I do that it doesnt work, I end up beach lean with soft legs. Why do some need high fats, low fats, high carb etc. I always used bodytype, but blood type looks to have something to say. Not sure Im 100% convinced of it all, but....

Anyways...I was shocked to see that 3 out of the 4 blood types whey and casein werent just on the neutral food list but actually on the avoid food list.

They discussed that those that are Blood Type A are more mucussy (did I just make up a word) than other blood types. Type A should eat more carbs and less protein. I cant recall my blood type, but this is the type of diet that works well with me, more carbs, less protein. Type A should also not eat a lot of red meat, they dont have as much stomach acid as Type O which is the oldest blood type and should eat a diet that is more geared towards ketosis. High protein, fats etc.

You may not put any stock in this type of thing, but just curious if you know your blood type?

If its A you may want to re-think slamming down 550+ grams protein, and shift more to carbs like Hulk recommended, especially if dropping whey only cures it part of the way.

Im glad dropping the whey is helping though. The shit our bodies do sometimes...

Very interesting.I am a type A and have a hard time w/ many whey protiens and can only do maybe 1-2 scoops a day.FYI i have found syntrax matrix to be easiest on my stomach.

Sounds good bro, I already made it very apparent that I dont take it as gospel.

But, what I do, is read and learn in order to expand my knowledge base, take what makes sense and put the rest out to trash. Even if it could help one of the people I work with, potentially explain something, then its all good.

It may just be when I finish the book I think its all trash, but Im keeping an open mind, as I do with ALL things....

I took the same walk down this road a few years ago - it is interesting how some of it matches, but its hard to apply 4 (I think) general catogories across the board to every person on the planet. Its wide enough that you could easily find cases that "prove" the theory as well as those that debunk it completely. But it is something that raises some things to check into (e.g. various food allergies) if someone is having issues that aren't readily diagnosed.

I know for me some artificial sweeteners in whey/supps just tear me up.
