Julieann,

Sorry to hear about the soy allergy. It's amazing this stuff it's in (even most canned tuna). I have no soy issues, but know someone who does.

I've been using egg white protein powder lately. I know you can also get 100% whey (don't know if that counts as mucus-producing dairy or not) grocery, GNC and health food stores. Our local health food store also carries rice protein powders. The egg white tastes the best (to me), but seems to be the priciest. I just got some whey and rice sample packs ($1 to $2 each at the health food store, don't know about GNC-types) to try. If you don't have access to a nutritionist, I know some people would advise asking a local "health food store expert" about nutrition supplements, but some would advise against, not knowing what kind of background they'd have.

Good luck - I know how hard it is to avoid soy.
