I know that milk has two proteins in it the whey and casein and I was wondering if this whey protein powder would contain casein at all since it is just whey protein concentrate?.. Any help would be great because Im allergic to lots of other stuff and I am looking at ur plain flavor one and that would be awesome to find something I can use!! Thanks :) I am allergic to casein.

The CDC BMI calculator suggests that if you are between 4'8" to 5'4" 109 lbs is a normal weight. Even if you use a stricter (skinnier) standard used by Europeans, you'd still need to be rather petite in order for an 11 lb weight loss to be recommended. With the best of intents and wishes, Janet Hi Kristie — 11 lbs seems like a lot of weight to lose for someone at your weight. The CDC BMI calculator suggests that if you are between 4’8″ to 5’4″ 109 lbs is a normal weight. Even if you use a stricter (skinnier) standard used by Europeans, you’d still need to be rather petite in order for an 11 lb weight loss to be recommended.

With the best of intents and wishes,

I weigh 109 and am a fit, active 38 yo female. I want to improve my health through concentrating on your 150 healthiest foods book. I have followed "super foods" for many years now but also love bread, pasta, wine and cheese! My mantra has always been - run to eat. I want to improve my vegetable intake. I have not been a big believer of supplements or meal replacements because I enjoy a meal. That being said, what supplements do you recommend as most important? I was on the weight loss section of your online store and several of the products look excellent. I have purchased Pure encapsulation products in the past but did not follow through on consuming them. Are there a couple you can recommend as most important for my goals? Kind regards, Kristie Hi Jonny,

Also, how does the modification help the efficiency of the product for an athlete? Thank you very much for taking your time to answer my question. Hi Dr. Johnny,

And a new high quality one i just added to the site (which is actually amazingly delicious) is Dream Protein (which is Anja's favorite, though I'm still sticking to Whey Cool). And yes, i would definitely recommend whey protein as a supplement to a power lifter, and i agree with you that a high quality one is the way to go. Bodybuilders (and I assume powerlifters) might also want to keep in mind that whey protein is a "fast acting" protein, so doesn't stay in the system as long; some of it is used for energy. Casein, on the other hand is a "slow acting" protein so though it's not used for energy, can hang around longer for muscle rebuilding. Both are good, and many serious bodybuilders use a combination of the two types. warmly jb warmly jb Hi Laura

The iron in spinach is much better absorbed when eaten with some vitamin C. There are two types of iron- heme iron (animal products only) and nonheme iron (animal and vegetable products). Nonheme iron is less well absorbed in general. and yup, certain nutrients- like the carotenoids in carrots, etc-- are much better absorbed with fat. Hence, put some olive oil or egg slices on your spinach salad! warmly jb Hi

Both of which I do not agree with as I would rather him be taking a better type. I loved the concept and background of the Whey Cool Protien would this be something you would recommend to a Powerlifter as a supplements for post workouts? Or is there something else that follows the same concepts but would be more for him. Thank you, Laura Timbrook Hi Johnny,

Remember, DBC was originally written as a self-help program and for MOST people who did it, there wasn't the benefit of customization and individualization since they did it on their own. So we had to come up with some basic formulas that worked for the greatest number of people. Doing it this way, where you're getting feedback, or working with a coach, etc, there's a lot more room for customization. It's hard to see anything wrong with this food you describe. Go ahead and make it a part of your program. If it stalls everything (which i doubt) we can revisit. warmly jb Hi Tiffany

I am so very pleased & impressed with how diligent you are. I am becoming a huge fan & admirer of you very very quickly. I am so gracious for your replies. My next question is this- I am getting ready to start your bootcamp and know that I will be cutting out certain things for awhile which is fine. I wanted to ask you personally about a sort of superfood I take and want to know if I can make it apart of the program right away. here are the ingredients: Mayan Gold Cacao powder, hemp seeds, whole coconut flour, rhodiola rosea, maca, sunfire salt, MSM, Bioperine, pure vanilla powder, carob, tocotrienols (vitamin e related tocopherals, COQ10, glutathione, camu camu berries, acerola berries, amla berries, manioc root, blueberry, cherry, rasberry. cranberry, buckwheat berry sprouts, rose hips fruit, lemon peel, Psyllium seed powder. Love and intention. :-P anyway, it is called Chocolate Bliss and basically its a raw chocolate superfood that is unsweet but u can add a sweetener of your choice. so i was going to use something super low glycemic. I also have a superfood salad dressing that sort of the savory tomatoey version of this with similiar ingredients that u mix with oil... so i was wanting to continue use of these items if possible and figured it be the absolute healthiest way to get my "choc fix" & superfoods in-thanks in advance for helping with this I really am believing coming to your teachings will be life changing for me and appreciate the guidance. I really looking forward to success with the bootcamp and am starting to get active on the boards. thanks so much for your dedication and hard work. and most of all thanks for being personal with us. Namaste Tiffany Summer Clark PS- the food combining question was eating this with that- carbs and protein dont mix- eat fruit alone and away from other foods and on an empty stomach. esp melon/cantelope. thanks for your thoughts on that.

I have heard that the iron in spinach is bound to the fiber so it isn't bioavailable. We cant utilize it. Do you know if this is true? I also heard that for better absorption of nutrients, these veggies should be eaten with some fat. Is fat required for optimum nutrient utilization? Most of the healthiest vegetable mentioned in the book are indeed nutritional powerhouses. But in general are all the nutrients in those vegetables bioavailable for us? Or are they bioavailable only to a certain extent? Do all the nutrients in vegetable get used by the body or do some just pass through? Thanks. Dr. JB,

I answered this question as soon as you put it up but it seems to have disappeared into cyber land. Silicone dioxide is just silica, and used in tons of things to prevent the accumulation of moisture. Otherwise stuff would cake up. Here's the encylopedia definition- it's pretty harmless stuff-- I wouldn't worry: Silica is common additive in the production of foods, where it is used primarily as a flow agent in powdered foods, or to absorb water in hygroscopic applications. as far as food combining, this term is used a lot of different ways. If you mean the old 19th century naturopathic noticon of "don't eat this with that", I don't hold much store in it. If you mean that certain combinations of foods control blood sugar better- i.e. adding some fat or oil to your carbs (like peanut butter on an apple or butter on a potato) is better from a point of view of blood sugar and insulin, then of course, that kind of combining i believe in. hope that helps, and hope you see the reply this time! warmly jb Hi Tiffany!
