Best Lactose Free Protein Powders

Isopure lactose free whey isolate protein powder contains vitamin C, E and zinc, helping to boost the immune system. It’s Keto friendly and contains zero carbs, perfect for those looking to minimise their calorie intake.

A serving includes 25g of 100% whey protein isolate. Whey protein isolate is created when whey protein is processed further to remove lactose and fat. If you’re looking for get lactose-free protein without the added calories, I’d go for this.

If you’re looking to avoid dairy products, and would prefer something organic, Orgain might be the one for you. It has 21g of Plant Based Protein, Low Net Carbs, Non Dairy, Gluten Free, Lactose Free, No Sugar Added, Soy Free, Kosher, Non-GMO.

That’s quite the list. The highlights for me are that there are no added sugars, which can be quite common in protein powders. Also, the fully plant based solution is becoming more popular over time as more people move away from dairy, which can be trouble for some people’s gut health.

Mix with water, milk, or your favourite protein shake recipe for a quick breakfast or snack drink. Use when baking to give your cakes, muffins, brownies, or cookies a protein and energy boost.

Here we have something a little different, a whey/casein blend. Casein is a slower absorbing protein so with this mix you’ll have whey protein being absorbed quickly and casein over a longer time period. If you know you’re not going to get any protein intake over several hours but your muscles will need it for recovery (sleep, endurance), then a casein blend could be for you.

Each serving contains 25g of protein/casein blend and 10g of collagen peptides. The evidence isn’t conclusive, but some research suggests collagen could be beneficial for recovery.

Rather than using dairy, this protein is made of beef protein. It’s sugar, fat, gluten and lactose free. Each serving contains 23g of protein and 120 calories.

Personally, I’ve never tried this product or a shake that uses beef protein. That’s not to say there’s anything wrong with it, it’s clinically tested, has solid numbers and a poplar choice for many.

Don’t pay too much mind to the “350% more concentrated than steak” rubbish, for those numbers they’re comparing the same weight of steak and powder which makes no sense, who is eating a 30g steak?!

Okay, the big question on the Iconic powder is, of course: is it worth the price? The answer to this depends on what you value. Here’s what they have to say:

“Sustainably sourced from grass-fed pasture-raised cows that graze on lush, nutritious grass their entire life. ICONIC’s low carb protein powder has 20 grams of the highest quality protein which is fully traceable from pasture to pouch and is hormone-free, pesticide-free, and antibiotic-free“

It’s a whey/casein blend, sugar free, non-GMO, lactose free, gluten free and 20g of protein per serving.
