schel 0 Posted November 20, 2005 Hello, I am on my pre op liquid diet and through my doc they either suggested Optifast or products by the name of Med-Diet. I opted for Med Diet, the cost was close but a little cheaper. The other thing, they are online and you can order on line. www.med-diet.com I ordered the 14 day plan and most of it I would do again, however, as far as the Protein broth, YUK!!! Otherwise, the Minnehaha Mills pudding you mix with the Beneprotein was good and the Protein Shakes were also good. I couldn't get the chicken broth down, so I called and asked if they took returns for unopened items and they were willing to do this. I did like the Minnehaha Mills pudding so much, that I asked for exchange of the returned broth for pudding. They had no problem with this and were willing to work with me. I also went online to walgreens.com and ordered a case of beneprotein to add to my own broth at home which was much more tolerable. Hint... Do not microwave the beneprotein! I turns into a thick curd like substance and blew up in the microwave. Add it after you have heated your broth. Any more questions let me know! Good Luck to you!

Tricia K. 0 Posted November 20, 2005 Here (Australia) it can be found at any chemist - not sure about in the states, but I have heard that Walgreen's stocks it. Walgreens actually carries a similar product called optisource, which is designed for bariatric surgery. http://www.walgreens.com/search/search_results.jsp?term=optisource§ion=A&x=0&y=0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
