This is the third time I've gone down after having my protein shake- two different brands have done it, today's was muscle milk in cake batter only one scope with almond milk(unsweetened almond breeze) the other one was musashi  p low carb- all three times I've ended up in bed with extreme nausea, shakes, excessive tiredness-I pass out and vagueness , thing is I've had shakes since the first time this happened the other day and it hasn't happened twice.

can you even dump off a protein shake, I so thought you couldn't??

How much sugar in the protein drinks? A lot of the body builder protein drinks are LOADED with sugar!! I'm not familiar with either of those.

Thanks Martha, I think the musashi is an Australian brand.

How many grams of sugar are in them?  The ones that are appropriate for RNYers have little or no sugar in them.  You can dump off of anything that has too much sugar for your body to tolerate.  You might need to use Muscle Milk Light instead of regular Muscle Milk.

Totally off topic, but is the flooding affecting you?

We got flooded in for a couple of days last week but our place doesn't actually flood- thank god- thankfully my husbands a bit of a prepper so we were set. There were tornados about 30 minutes from us which are super rare in Australia and the places that do get them are unpopulated areas out in the middle of nowhere so that was a freaky thing to be on watch for. There ate a few places like bundrberg that are still under 8m of water but on the news this morning it said the water is reversing thankfully!!

I watch sugar pretty close.

musashi P (Australian brand I'm guessing) has 3.5 g total carb 4.2.

and the muscle milk has under 1g total carb 6g......This is why I thought I couldn't dump from them

Since dumping is a specific physiological reaction to too much unprocessed sugar in the lower intestine, whatever is going on isn't dumping on such a small amount of sugar/carbs.  Could be that some days it just doesn't agree with you or perhaps you are sensitive to a particular ingredient in those (most protein shakes have a TON of chemicals in them!).

Thanks Lora, I didn't think I could physically dump of that amount- 8g yes but not that, I knew one of you would have an answer for me :-).

now to figure out the cause because I can't keep dropping like this, really inconvenient!!
