Athlete intolerant to all dairy

[Velve921]

Does anybody have a recommendation for an athlete who is intolerant dairy? What would be a good post workout protein?

Hydrolyzed Collagen, BCAA powder, and Gatorade Powder

I use greatlakesgelatin...are there any other collagen brands that you would recommend? I ask because greatlakes is not certified by NSF for sport. My athlete is NHL and all products need to be NSF certified for sport.

Thanks.

Yea that was my second thought. If I can't tolerate dairy he has a lot of intestinal inflammation. Raw carrots aspirin gelatin antihistamines should help

Whichever protein you use, don't forget to also add extra calcium.
I have no idea which hydrolysed collagen brands are NSF endorsed, but I have been happy with NOW brand gelatine too.

Great points Tara. I actually recommended yesterday to try 1/4 cup of Kalona Milk to see how he responds...and then later on in the day parmigiana reggiano cheese. I'm not sure if he'll be able to wrap his head around egg shells yet....we will see.

A bit of whey won't hurt, just don't overdo it (and of course gelatin). Why not a meal with some meat?
