[QUOTE="Snapsy, post: 1387231, member: 265172"] Regarding the whey issue, I make my own (out of 'home-brewed' kefir - out of each batch of kefir I make both soft cheese and whey), and to start with I figured that most if not all of the lactose would have been consumed by the fermentation process, so assumed the whey would contain negligible carbohydrate. Whether it actually does contain carbohydrate I don't know, but the stuff I make is like rocket fuel where it comes to blood glucose! I use it to rehydrate after exercising, but I need to take insulin for it - and this morning when I woke up hypo a small glass of whey/water/sugar-free squash combo got me right back into normal levels very quickly. At any rate, it's delicious and 'feels' very hydrating. [/QUOTE]
