Healthy morning
People with milk allergy or sensitivity should not use whey protein. It can cause allergies reaction.
We recommend including protein sources at each meal and snacks throughout the day to support hormonal controls.
Animal protein sources, including poultry, beef , fish and dairy add in diet .

Natural protein directly from food is best unless you have an absorption issue diagnosed by medical tests and a doctor. Stick to normal and natural sources of proteins .
Both sources are good depending upon a persons requirements or increased nutritional needs
