Has he had his thyroid checked? Over active thyroid can cause this.
Has he tried drinking protein shakes or weight gainer?
Some people naturally have a higher metabolism (with no medical problems) and just need to eat more.
Hope you don't mind me pu…
I think some of the problem is everything that is being put in food these days.
Have you noticed the young skinny teen girls that even have tummies? It is weird!! (sorry)
It probably isn't just the amount of calories being taken in but also how much…
Thanks for the input. I have had a bunch of tests done but not a gluten intolerance test. I have reflux so the doctors want to shove antacids down my throat. (even though some of my symptoms don't even go with reflux)
The average time it takes to di…
What about other sources of protein such as chicken, beans or eggs? Also, you could try hemp protein (although it's got a definite chalky texture) or brown rice protein powder. I would suggest having blood work done or seeing a Naturopath to figure…
Hi Lori!
Great question....I am in the same boat. I get massively bloated when I try to drink either. I am now trying a vegetarian protein mix. It does not say it contains gluten......I am trying to find out from the manufacturer.....will advise.

What can I do for a protein drink when I think the whey protein is making me sick?
I don't think I can have soy either.
I have read that if you have a gluten intolerance you are likely to also have an intolerance to whey and casein protein.
Since I…
I am beginning to wonder if it is something hereditary. My Mom had to have knee surgery and then eventually had to have knee replacement.
Our son is prone to joint problems. (knees, shoulders, ankles)
I also have weak shoulders and hurt the one and…
You might want to see a sports medicine doctor.
When I tore my ACL, I first went to see my family doctor who agreed it was injured (obviously, it was really swollen), but only suggested ice and rest. I wasnt' satisfied, so I saw a sports med doctor…
If it was my situation, I'd try exercises with low impact in my knees but I definitely would visit the doctor right away, because there is obviously something wrong and we never know if it is some serious damage there (from what I have read knees ar…
Lori,
I would not wait to see a doctor if I were you.
I had knee pains (noticed it doing karate) for 2 years and thought like you that if it's not terribly painful, I'd just tough it out. When it got to the point where it was painful to even walk…
I am actually bad for not stretching enough. I was wondering if my hamstring is actually too tight rather than not strong enough.
I seem to have quite a bit of strength on the backside of my legs and not so much in the quads.
Guess I will try to be…
Hi ladies,
I couldn't resist but to jump in here because of my experience with a bummed knee.
Sometimes, knees do make funny sounds, but it may have to do more with being consistent with stretching. I've torn the anterior cruciate ligament on my r…
I've had similar weird creakign sounds from my knee but no pain. However something is seriously wrong with the ball of my left foot. It hurts so bad - the more pressure and weight I put on it the worse it hurts. I've been advised to lay off working…
My knee is bothering me. When I do squats it makes weird noises and now it is hurting.
My hamstring seems to pull when I try to stretch too.
I don't want to stop exercising but I'm not sure if complete rest is required or not.
How long is a reasonab…
I was always taught that your husbands wants come before yours if you are to be a good wife. I now realize that is not always right. It is okay to take care of myself and not feel guilty about it. (still working on this though) It is also not my res…
