missemy 0 Posted May 22, 2012 So I have a bit of a qundrey. Im needing to get more Protein in my diet, and the shakes are just not doing it (they make me ill). I haven't had the chance to ask my dietician, but I wanted to see if Protein pills work for anyone. If anyone has tired then, any recommendations? Thanks for any thoughts or suggestions!!

Lissa 2,631 Posted May 22, 2012 Have you got a brand in mind? Look at the nutrition information. Most of the pills I've seen have collagen as the main source. Collagen Protein is NOT available to our bodies. The other thing I saw was that each pill had 1-2 grams of Protein. I personally would not want to try to swallow 10 or 20 of those pills just to get in a few grams of protein. I'd drink more chicken broth (3g of protein per cup, plus some liquid toward your Water count) or find a Protein shake I could stand. If you're on mushies, mix some Protein powder into SF Jello or pudding or cottage cheese. Heck, mix some unflavored protein into the chicken broth.< /p> I wouldn't take the protein pills myself. 1 PEvette reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
