Hey... I'm looking for suggestions on brands of protein powders. I am allergic to dairy so most regular protein products I can't eat because of the whey protein they use. Anyone have any suggestions for protein powders that use soy or other sources as their protein?

    Try looking up powders that are made from soy, hemp, rice, or peas.

  • Go to bodybuilding.com and check the reviews for the supplement that you are interested in.

    3 things to look for in protein shakes.

    Glutamine, Branched Amino Acids, and Protein to Carb level.

    I use Optimum Nutrition 100% Gold Stardard Whey Protein (mocha cappucino)

    All around great protein mix, even tastes awseome with water! Great pre/post workout drink!

    Shakeology gets alot of hype on here but it is way over priced. A 5lb bottle of optimum whey is around $50 and thats easily a months supply at 3 shakes a day.

    Best of luck!
