The essential amino acids are also present in the correct ratio in the cold-processed whey Patriot is already taking, so I don't believe Dr. Vickery's amino acids are necessary on top of that. I think we agree that food is better if you can do it with food. Also, if one takes these amino acids in addition to the whey one should consider a possible excess of phenylalanine, which is undesireable. What I would recommend is at least 60 grams cold-processed whey daily, plus don't forget the 200-600 mcg selenium. I forgot to mention this in my post above, but this highly bioavialible protein addresses the protein deficiency noted by Dr. Vickery, and it is also a bid to increase metabolic rate, thus healing speed and energy levels too. 's right about the probiotic; a prebiotic with that, like inulin or FOS, will make the probiotic unnecessary. What's more, it will allow your native probiotic strains that are already present to proliferate and outcompete on the bowel lining, as opposed to eating strains but not feeding them so they can outcompete.

I think you may be missing the point of free form amino acids - the reason they have a high success rate is that they require no digestion. If you have a failing or under-functioning digestive system, you will not be getting the necessary repair materials from the food, even if it is the otherwise wonderful whey. Free form aminos are the most bio-available material - no digestion or processing required. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But in the case of cold- processed whey you're making the mistake of assuming substantial digestion is required before absorption. The gist of my argument, put another way, is that cold-processed whey isolate has the highest " biological value " of any protein source. This is how we compare the absorption of proteins vs digestion requied. Cold-processed whey requires almost no digestion; most of the proteins have been predigested into peptides that are small enough to be directly absorbed even by a newborn baby that has almost no digestive capability. This makes cold-processed whey very useful as a protein and essential amino acids source even for people with very poor digestion. The bonus is that all degenerative and age-related diseases, and most chronic toxin-load related diseases are linked to low glutathione and cold-processed whey is also a rich source of precursors for this crucial antioxidant enzyme. Once you see the science of glutathione decrease in illness and glutathione increase in wellness, you'll understand the elegance and profound effect this product produces can't be ignored or deprecated. Bottom line is that once a person is using cold-processed whey for its benefits, which can not be disputed, free-form essential amino acids will not be required at all. There are plenty already present, easily absorbed. regards, Duncan Crow duncancrow/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mean lactose intolerant. I mean actually allergic to cow's milk protein in all and any form? I have been told by my doctor as well as others (I tend not to like to take one medical opinion), plus my own research that whey is a product of cow's milk protein. I do take a product called Goatein which is make from goat's milk and is a protein. (no association with the product nor company other then as a consumer) I have no problems with goat's milk in any form.
