dolphin_dreams 0 Posted November 22, 2005 I use the Body Fortress whey Protein powder-vanilla. It doesn't taste bad at all especially if you mix it with low sugar orange juice. It has 20grams of Protein in one scoop. I buy mine at Walmart and the best part is the price. Also I love the Natures Plus, Source of Life liguid Vitamins. Someone on the board recommended them and I got some. I have my Mom who is 66 taking them and she also swears she has more energy. I used to take lots of Vitamins in pill form and these are definitely better. I found mine at Drug Emporium's Health food store but I've heard that they are also available at the Vitamin Shop and online. Good luck on your surgery and keep us updated on your progress.
