Is Whey protein a dairy product?............

I need a non-dairy, non-soy protein powder to replace the one I have been using. Is there such a thing that I can make a smoothie out of?

Thanks!:7
 
Yes, whey protein is made from dairy products. Might I suggest either egg protein or rice protein. Both are good proteins and make good shakes. You should be able to get these at a Health Food Store, if not, I'm sure your local Health Food Store could order them for you.
 
www.veganessentials.com sells an excellent rice/pea protein powder called vegan complete (it has 26 gm of protein per serving, as well as vitamins, minerals, digestive enzymes, etc. It does have somewhat of an aftertaste that takes a while to get used to, but I love that the sweeteners (fructose and stevia) are the two LAST ingredients! If you mix it with other ingredients, you might not notice the aftertaste. I sometimes mix it with a bit of another protein powder that veganessentials sells (can't remember the name right off, even though I had some this morning! but it has "Omega..." in the name, and it contains flax seed).
