    Me thinks there is protein tabs available..

    What do you mean you feel ill??

    Try a different type of protein?

    Are you using whey or caesin?

    Are you mixing with milk or water?

    I mixed it with milk, and its casein (Tony Quinn 90+ instant protein strawberry), not seriously ill just it didnt agree with my stomach, never tried mixing it with water.. Thikn it might be the milk was never a big fan of drinkin milk on its own. It doesnt say on the directions to mix with water though.

    Get rid of that casen protein and the milk..

    In my opinion Tony Quinn is a rip off...

    I would only take casen as a slow release protein before i go to bed.. but i dont use it at all

    Get whey protein instead and mix it with water.. much easier on the stomach!!

    I agree TQ is a complete rip off.

    Your digestive system will take hours to absorb Casein protein, then you have the milk which also has casein protein. Try whey mixed with cold water.

    If you can handle big tabs prolab amino 2000 have 2g of protein per tab, 325 tabs is 34.99. Whey should be ok for you tho.

    Considering the average 200lb guy would need 30g of protein per serving, I would say that 2g per tab isn't worth much TBH

    That stuff is useless. Try something like Optimum Nutrition Whey, first try mixing it with milk and if its still not good then try water. The tony quinn stuff is pretty awful. It's like flavoured flour paste. Rotten.
