Does anyone in this group know anything about a product called Whey Low?
I am not affiliated with the company, but found it on the web recently.
(www.wheylow.com) My husband has Type II Diabetes and was drinking soda
with nutrasweet/aspartame. I managed to get him off of that when I
found soda sweetened with sucralose/splenda. My preference is to avoid
any artificial sweetener, so I have been looking for an alternative.
Whey Low sounds like it would fit the bill - low calorie, low net carb,
low glycemic index.
Has anyone tried it or spoken with a nutritionist or Doctor about it?
Thanks for any input.

This hearty omelet or frittata is a great way to pack a full serving
of omega-3’s into a breakfast. If you use the new organic and omega-3
enriched eggs, you’ll be adding even more heart- healthy fat to your
meal. If a full can of sardines seems like a lot to you, use half a
can for each scramble or omelet. You can also substitute egg whites
for the whole eggs if you’re concerned with cholesterol.
Start to finish: 10 minutes
1/2 cup baby spinach leaves (preferably organic)
2 eggs
1 can sardines (water packed, well drained)
