being a vegetarian i often drink protein powders and i was wondering if whey protein is considered gluton based? does anyone know? i am trying my hardest to stay away from wheat mostly because i grave it and it doesn't supply much i need. although i do try to eat whole grains. but, most of the protein powders are either whey or soy - and damn i eat a ton of soy and what's funny is that soy is one of the crops that is grown with a great abundance of pesticides - or that's what i read. plus how much soy is good for you?
and fish oil? i gotta say that's a tough one for a vegetarian. my dad recently bought my a multivitamen - like a thousand of them - and i read the ingredients and it contained fish oil so it actually wasn't a vegetarian product or at least i haven't heard of synthetic fish yet. and everytime i think of fish oil i can't help but picture someone taking a whole fresh fish a wringing it out like a wash cloth to get the oil. is that how they do it?
(even when i was a kid nobody wanted to take me fishing cuz i was very good at emptying the buckets. who knew once they were dead they wouldn't come back to life when you threw them back into the ocean.
