protein shakes without milk - 03/12/06 10:04 PM
Do you guys know of any home made protein shakes without using milk? I can't drink a lot of milk anymore because it's giving me acne.

CORD- Speaking of acne, do people with more testosterone have more acne? Or is just certain individuals skin reacts different to testosterone?

I did not know that testosterone peaks had any corellation with acne. Is it the same thing for girls?
I was under the impression that most steroid using bodybuilers got acne because of the oil base used in many injectable steroids.

High levels of testosterone can also have an effect. I do break out from time to time on my back and taking steroids is a no-no for me. Another thing that high levels of testosterone can effect is hair loss. The higher levels of testosterone the less hair. This is another reason why many steroid users start to bald. Man, the testoterone running through my system must be running rampant. I should bottle this stuff. My wife would be more then happy to have me give some away.

i was given acne treatments by my doctor (acutane and erythromycin if I remember correctly)

I make my shakes with soymilk. Actually it adds to the protein content as well.
And yes, cow milk is related in some way to acne. I believe it was the book "Milk: The Deadly Poison" that gives a good scientific argument against cow's milk.

Quote:an 8 oz serving of soy milk compared to 2% cow's milk has the same amount of vit. A, 5% more vit. D, the same amount of calcium, 6% more iron (cow's milk has none) and 3% more folate. But sure, whatever you say.
Soy milk was originaly a waste product that got disposed of as low grade pig feed. its nutritional benefits to humans reflect its background.
Quote:No one said anything about vegetarianism.
i believe it was the book 'Vegans: its just not natural' that gave a good common sense argument against extreme vegeterianism.
Quote:If you are lactose intolerant, protein or not, you probably shouldn't be drinking cow's milk.
Your doctor can test you for lactose intolerance. If you are lactose tolerant (most are) then cows milk contains a far better quality of protein than non dairy equivalents.

Very true, and I should apologise for the sarcastic tone I took- its just that when a member pops up out of the blue with 'vegan' in their name and starts on about the wonders of soy, I sense an agenda. my agenda is the following: i believe in personal choice, and good nutrition in any form. If vegetarian/vegan eating is your path based on moral concience, then good luck to you, and with a good level of knowledge the human body can be sustained very well this way, however the simple truth is that our bodies are wired for an omnivorous diet, even if our brain decides it wishes to abstain from eating things that have faces.
