I did some research and I found out that concentrated whey protein contains free glutamate, which when taken in large dosage can lead to MSG intolerance symptoms. After 24 hours, symptoms are subsided but it was some horrible thing I would never go thru. Sigh...what am I gonna do with that big can full of whey protein?
> What a waste of money :(the very sick.. was that the tiredness/weakness with muscle aches you were describing?
The tiredness/possible weakness but drowsiness could be the high tryptophan in the whey?... unsure though
