Guest guest Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 I think 25gms is about an ounce which I think is a rounded tablespoon.

Guest guest Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 Dee, I weighed 2 heaping TBSp and got 35 grams, depending on how high you can pile it on the spoon it can be a bit more. So, a heaping TBSp is about 17 grams. Duncan > > I think 25gms is about an ounce which I think is a rounded tablespoon. Dee > > >  > > <'Tis not right, a woman going into such places by herself.

Guest guest Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 Duncan, I want to try and get it fairly accurate. If it were level tablespoons would you say 35 grams would be about 3 or 4 level tablespoons?

Guest guest Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 Elsye, I use the NOW whey as well. If you look at the serving size info, you'll see where it says that 1/3 cup has 25g protein. So I just use a 1/3 cup measuring cup and use 2-3 scoops per day. You could vary the dose anyway you want by using a proportion. So for example if you want 75g/day in two doses, just use 1/2 cup 2x/day. Hope this helps! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 7, 2007 Report Share Posted July 7, 2007 Just a question. Does anyone experience a continuous low, stomach ache when they take whey?

Guest guest Posted July 7, 2007 Report Share Posted July 7, 2007 It's not exactly a stomach ache, but I did have constant gas and pain in the intestines from the gas bubbles.

Guest guest Posted July 7, 2007 Report Share Posted July 7, 2007 Elyse, unfortunately, my " tablespoon " soup spoons are approximate, but it doesn't matter because whey products don't weigh the same and they heap and pack differently too. That said, I think your estimate of four level TBSP that are not packed, sounds like they would be very close to 35 grams; bear in mind that this time, with whey, it's better to apply the old rule " when in doubt, use more " and take advantage of its metabolic- enhancing, thus anti-aging, property. Body builders use up to about 160 -180 grams per day in addition to regular food, for tone and mass. Duncan > > > > > > I think 25gms is about an ounce which I think is a rounded > > tablespoon.

Guest guest Posted July 8, 2007 Report Share Posted July 8, 2007 I have had to stop taking it because I get continuous pain and gas. Dee  <'Tis not right, a woman going into such places by herself.

Guest guest Posted July 8, 2007 Report Share Posted July 8, 2007 I have to admit it is not long or consistently, but I have taken it three days consecutively and have nothing but bloating and pain, plus gas, so I thought it is probably not the right thing for me. I have this weird thing that I seem to operate the other way around to most people. I now have a persistent pain in the lower right abdomen which feels like a burning sensation and don't know what to do. I now have the enzymes to replace the gall bladder so will see if this makes an difference. Dee  <'Tis not right, a woman going into such places by herself. " Granny nodded.
