Whey protein powder makes me break out. Plant protein tastes terrible.

Any recommendations for non-whey protein powder (or bars)? I've tried Macro Mike, they were pretty good but I've since moved from Australia and the shipping is expensive.

If you put the Optimum Nutrition Plant Protein (vanilla flavor) into a blender with frozen banana, cocoa powder, peanut butter (I use PB2), vanilla extract, and your liquid of choice, it sort of masks the taste.

>>76377007 (OP)
Good luck anon. Pretty much all protein powder constipates me unless it is built protein bars but those have whey in them and collagen

>>76377007 (OP)
silver lining of plant protein tasting terrible: after you choke it down you're so disgusted you won't feel hungry for another couple hours (maybe more). helpful for a cut

>>76377007 (OP)
>why protein powder makes me break out
No it doesn't, retard.

>>76377086
What causes it then? When I'm not consuming huge amounts of whey protein, my skin is clear. When I start relying more and more on whey to hit my protein, I start breaking out.

>>76377007 (OP)
there's egg protein powder but its expensive do you also get breakouts from milk ?

>>76377095
How would it?
Is it physically blocking your pores?
Or what is in it, that is in no other food you consume, that is increasing sebum production?
Even if there were something in whey protein causing it, it would either be from protein, in which all complete protiens would do the same, even from whole food sources, or it's from dairy adulterants, which would be present, and in higher amounts, in literally any dairy product.
You're a fucking retard and drawing false conclusions.

Chat what's wrong with this guy?

chicken and water

>I don't understand string theory therefore physics isnt real

>>76377143
I've never really drank that much milk, so I'm not sure. There's probably a minimum amount I can tolerate.

>>76377195
It doesn't have to "physically block pores" to cause acne. Whey can stimulate hormones that increase sebum production, which causes acne.

>>76377258
Might have to resort to this honestly.

>>76377195
You have literally zero idea what you're talking about.

>>76377195
you are a literal meathead. this is why people call lifters meatheads.

Just increase your fibre intake. Psyllium husk is a good source. Saved my constipation problems, I just take it once a day

I've had luck with the Oikos triple zero yoghurt things. No added whey. Good for a snack

>>76377007 (OP)
just get the fucking ꜱoy protein powder, ꜱoy isn't estrogizing you and anyone who says as much is still falling for an old 2015 meme. The isoflavones in ꜱoy are SERMs, they're doing the exact opposite, assuming you eat 15kg of ꜱoybean a day to see the effect though.

>>76377366
I think psyllium husk is too artificial anon. Yeah it helps but I read some study a while ago that it does more damage long term.

I've tried eating a salad with my whey drink and it really doesn't help at all. Usually bread helps me move my bowels but I'd probably have to turbo carb up which I don't have enough calories for. Think I'll cut my whey dosage in half to see if it helps

>>76377375
Does onions protein powder taste better?

>>76377438
I am not against onions protein isolate as a protein source, other than it tastes like fucking shit.

>>76377543
Is it crazy that I sometimes crave raw onions

>>76377604
Nutrient deficient

>>76377195
100% completely correct.
>dairy adulterants, which would be present, and in higher amounts, in literally any dairy product.

>>76377007 (OP)
>any recommendations
yes, cut that bullshit out completely. you don’t need any of these protein powders. just get all your necessary macros from your meals.

The best way to filter out people who aren't into fitness are the ones that made a big deal out of whey protein or any other supplement. Don't ever listen to some pencil neck dork who thinks whey protein is fuckin them up or whatever bullshit they say

>>76377719
I bet you talk like hank hill in real life too.

>>76377007 (OP)
Buy chicken breast and thighs on sale, red meat .5lb every day. Less of good protein goes further than milk and eggs.

>>76377722
just drink it you pussy

>>76377687
What nutrient(s)

>>76377007 (OP)
You think a scoop of whey is more protein than 2 ribs, eat more carbs its more about insulin and carb surplus.

>>76377724
>less of good protein goes further
egg protein is the gold standard dickhead

>>76377007 (OP)
god damn, why do dyels make such a big deal out of whey protein? either eat it or dont, stop blaming all your shitty lifts on this

>>76377749
I need like 50g from meat a meal or im starving, easy way to cut or bulk effectively assuming willpower to eat 2 meals ehile lifting.

>>76377195
The best post.

>>76377749
Eggs are not a high protein food. You get less protein for your money, sourcing your protein from eggs.

Get more vitamin D, you rarely see tanned people getting acne

>>76377854
i see tan people with acne all the time you fuckin moron. holy shit this place is retarded

>>76377007 (OP)
have you tried casein?

>>76377007 (OP)
Have you tried washing your greasy faggot face and being older than 20 you dumb fuck?
There is nothing in whey that would cause acne dipshit

>>76377853
The anon I was replying to made a statement to the quality of protein, ie, he was claiming that egg protein is inferior to beef or chicken protein, which is false. It is considered the highest quality protein. As to quantity and cost that is a different conversation. Although I can easily get 48 grams of egg protein from 8 eggs versus the usual 8oz of chicken breast which is about 50 grams. And given that egg protein is absorbed at a higher rate than chicken protein I would have probably given my body more amino acids to work with. As to the costs of these two meals, well that depends.

>>76377882
Yeah, he didn't do that. I didn't read past your second sentence.

>>76377890
Yes he did. You just have poor reading comprehension.

>>76377868
Less than pale people and less severe

>>76377905
Ok

>>76377007 (OP)
it could be lactose intolerance like it was for me. If I drink regular milk I get acne, with lactose free milk there's no skin issues. You could try whey isolate or even better if you have lactose free products available

>>76377870
Haven't tried casein. I'll look into it.

>>76377963
Hmmm, good point. I don't really consume that much dairy to begin with, but it could that.

>>76377195
Whey makes me break out. Idk why that’s so hard for you to understand

>>76377195
Yeah, it's most likely the dairy that is the cause.

Try casein, thats what I drink because I cant do whey. If it fucks you up still, go with pea protein, it's the best plant-based protein you can get as far as Im aware, better than onions and hemp and whatever else. You can also just eat 2 of those cans of beach cliff sardines, thats like 25 grams of protein right there

>>76377007 (OP)
if whey protein is giving you pimples you are not old enough to be using this website

>>76378135
thanks grok

eggs at my local walmart are 13 bucks for 60. i eat 8 whites with 2 yolks a day which offers me ~35 grams of protein. this gives me 7.5 days worth of eggs for 13 dollars, or $1.73 per day spent on that many eggs. thats really not bad. if you're not afraid of fat and cholesterol you could get roughly the same amount of protein from only 5 or 6 whole eggs instead of throwing away a bunch of yolks like i do, and it would save you even more money.

beef protein?
