Gainer, Protein, Dietary supplement

Hey there, i bought a gainer “Carnivor Mass” it contains no milk no gluten (i’m lactose intolerant as well) but it can sometimes upset my stomack, why does it happen and what should i do? i got “Platinum Hydro Whey Isolate” but it causes my stomach to upset more often than a gainer.

I have ordered GlutenEase does it help to digest smth with gluten?

and I have ordered Lacto from EnzyMedica, does it help to digest milk products?

I would say give up the whey based gainers, look for Beef Protein by Julian Bakery, or Bulk Supplements, and Egg White Protein By Julian Bakery. I also add in cheaper Collagen proteins from various brands that are gluten free. IF you find a good gives you issues the best thing is to remove it from your diet for at least 6 months and see if the intolerance/sensitivity has gone away. I have had some go away over the years (I developed a whey allergy so that I am not even trying). I eat a diet heavy in Eggs, Meats, and healthy fats from various nuts, along with those supplements in a shake or pudding (set with gelatin) after workouts.
IF your celiac you can't eat gluten at all, the enzymes like GliadinX will reduce the severity of the reaction and might even eliminate it if it is a tiny crumb or a bit of flour dust....but you still chance your immune system going on the attack and it can take over 6 weeks for it to completely stop.

That is the name of a company, I have been using their Beef Protein Powder for a few months without issues, Frankly it is the cheapest I could find at $28 a kilo on Amazon.

Could I take enzymes with Beef Gainer every time? I’ve been told that enzymes are not good for health if you take them regularly.

Glutenease says it will help break down casein as well as small amounts of gluten, for example cross contamination at a restaurant, but this supplement nor any other are designed to allow you to purposefully consume gluten if you have celiac disease. It doesn’t contain AN-PEP, which has been shown in studies to break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, which is what I look for in a gluten enzyme that is designed to mitigate cross contamination.

@Ennis_TX is giving you good advice, best to change the bulk powder to a brand that is gluten and casein-free.

Just looked at the product you mentioned, while it does appear to be gluten and dairy free, I assume your getting gastric distress from it still? The large amount of carbs in it could be causing issues. I myself had to give them up a while back due to glucose issues and found my gut was much happier with a lower carb  diet. But everyone is different in this respect. Personally I use a very high protein diet (250-300g) and keep my daily total carbs under 40g most of which is just fiber from the nuts and seeds I eat. I get my energy from healthy fats (100-200g varies from bulk to cut).
You might try making your own bulking shakes, if you can have carbs try real ones and complex, sweet potatoes are perfect, they are also relatively flavor neutral. Bake in batches and measure and use for your carbs in a shake, with nut butters, beef protein/egg protein, and flavorings/sweeteners of choice (I like oooflavors and a blend of stevia/monk fruit) You can also throw in a few tsp of cinnamon or raw cocoa powder. I tend to make protein puddings out of beef protein, egg white powder, steiva, monk fruit extract, flavor drops and set with gelatin. I also mix in other things.

For enzymes, there is only a issue if you take too much it can make you nauseated, honestly look at whats in the blends and take them in ratio for your diet
One USP unit of Lipase activity digests 1 mg uEq. of fatty acid per minute at the pH of 9.0 at 37°C
One USP unit of Amylase activity digests 1 mg of dry USP potato starch (Carbs)
One USP unit of Protease activity digests 1 mg of casein (milk protein or other proteins)
I take both pig pancreas enzymes and supplemental ones as my pancreas does not work fully. If I fail to take the right amounts I can get various issue but most notable are oily stool, Diarrhea, gas and bloating. I liked Realzymes as they made to for different diets.

Bananas & milk are good for your health. If you indulge in buying pricy supplements and steroids then you will end up buying even more products to fortify the side effects of the products you bought before.

i dread eating steroids. the thing is that i’m lactose intolerant as well, i’m curious can i eat ice cream with enzymes Lacto? i haven’t tried it yet, u know i can get away with eating gluten sometimes but it is impossible if i drink milk))

If you want to try it, I have had a lot of luck with keto based diets just upped my protein when bulking to gain more mass then cut it back to cut. Mix with daily cardio, 5-10miles a day, 30-60mins weight training daily (different groups on rotation), and when cutting times come I do intermittent fasting once in ketosis and my body slims down to single digit fat % in a bit over a week.

      I haven't heard of them before, but a significant portion of dietary supplements are produced by a handful of large contract manufacturers. These companies have the facilities, expertise, and certifications to produce supplements at scale, making them attractive partners for brands that don’t have their own manufacturing capabilities. I doubt Forvia manufactures them directly, so it is hard to know if they are just doing clever marketing to a certain malabsorption crowd, or they actually have unique product.

      That’s an interesting observation! The timing you mention does raise questions about the relationship between modern wheat varieties and the emergence of Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS). Norman Borlaug’s work on high-yield, disease-resistant wheat during the Green Revolution significantly increased global food production, but it also led to changes in the composition of wheat, including higher gluten content to improve baking qualities. While NCGS was formally recognized as a condition in the 2010s (https://bmcmedicine.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/1741-7015-10-13 and https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3820047/) , it’s important to note that the awareness and diagnosis of gluten-related disorders have evolved over time. Some researchers suggest that modern wheat breeding practices, along with changes in food processing and gut health, may contribute to the rise in gluten sensitivity. However, the exact mechanisms behind NCGS are still not fully understood, and it remains a debated topic in the scientific community. It’s also worth considering that increased awareness and improved diagnostic tools have played a role in identifying conditions like NCGS that may have existed but were previously unrecognized. The interplay between genetic, environmental, and dietary factors makes this a complex issue, and more research is needed to fully understand the connections.

      Here is a recent reply to a Celiac.com email asking for comment about gluten contamination detected in their bakery products: You can read more about it in this thread:

      @Marie70, it is very important that your daughter not begin experimenting with eating gluten free until all testing for celiac disease is complete. Doing so will invalidate the testing. Normally, the testing involves two stages. The first stage is blood antibody testing as per the article linked by Scott above. As you can see from the article, there are a number of tests that can be ordered when diagnosing celiac disease but most physicians will not order a complete panel. At the very minimum, your daughter should request two antibody tests, "total IGA" and "tTG-IGA". The tTG-IGA is considered the centerpiece of celiac disease testing but if total IGA is low (i.e., if she is IGA deficient), this will result in an artificially low tTG-IGA score and possibly a false negative. Many general practitioners are not very knowledgeable about celiac disease testing so we have found we have to be a little assertive in order to get proper testing done. I don't know under the relational circumstances how much input you will have with your daughter about these things but I thought I'd pass the info on to you anyway. The second stage of celiac disease testing involves an endoscopy with biopsy of the small bowel lining which is then sent to a lab for microscopic analysis. This checks for damage to the small bowel lining and is confirmation if any of the blood antibody tests are positive. It is also considered to be the gold standard of celiac disease diagnosis. Again, should her antibody testing be positive, your daughter would still need to be consuming gluten until after the endoscopy/biopsy is complete.

      No!!! Celiacs disease does not go away. You can’t outgrow it, and if all proper diagnostic procedures (blood test and endoscopy) were followed when you were 8, it’s almost impossible to be mis-diagnosed.    stoms and reactions to gluten do change over time, but the fact you have celiacs does not.    I think that a lot of people misunderstand that the goal to managing your celiacs is to eventually test negative for celiacs. This does not mean it went away, it means that your gluten-free diet is working and you’re no longer producing the anti-bodies that will wreak havoc on your health.    if you can access the medical records from when you were 8 and have a GI doctor review them, I would highly recommend you do this.
