Need a good protein other than whey

My doc wants me to switch off of whey protein for awhile. I know I have read a mention of soy and hemp. Are there others and which one would be best quality? Thanks for your help.

jay Robb's egg white protein powder is a nice substitute.

I second the egg white protein, I just had the chocolate flavor for breakfast. It's really mild in flavor too, not bad at all.

Super! Thanks you guys!

Not that particular brand but any protein shake/powder with egg white in it makes me gag and I just cannot drink it, I advise to buy the smallest possible container or try to get a sample first.

Another protein is pea protein powder, I haven't tried it but know its out there.

Actually has anyone tried the protein pills I have seen on puritans pride, they are called desicated liver??

Thanks.... Was going to Vitamin shoppe today to see what they have. I so appreciate the suggestion on samples. I have spent way too much money on unused Vitamins and protein already so really hope my problem with whey subsides so that i wont be stuck with all the nectar and other big tub of protein i have.

At the vitamin shoppe they have samples of the egg white one as well as different vegan ones made without whey protein! There only a dollar or two as well (:

Oh good! Thanks!

Prodiet has some that goes in water. I like the grape and I think one is mango. I use more water though!

Thanks. I'll have to check them out. I have peach and lemonaid Syntrax nectar, but they are still made of whey isolate.
