A lot of people on the forum say isolate absorbs better than the blend, but I can't find any info online about that. Where did this info come from? I'd like to read about it. Thanks!

What? It is listed on the Internet so by golly, it must be true. :)

I don't have an online source, but that's the info I was given by the hospital nut, my drs Nut, and my best friend is a personal trainer/nut and agreed with the assessment when I was nattering on about the plan they'd given me.

I've heard it absorbs FASTER than other Proteins or blends. I've not heard the term BETTER used with isolate. I may be wrong, but that's just what I've read about isolate. Unless of course it is right after a workout (resistance training), which I think faster is better for muscle recovery. So that's why I take it right after a workout. But I also keep a blend or casein Protein around for right before I go to bed on days that I've had a really intense workout....when I can think of it anyway. :P I probably only take that once or twice a week. For me, it's all a guess....and maybe for the nutritionists as well. :wacko:

I have read it absorbs faster but can't find info on absorbing better. I had my surgery in MX and don't have a Nutritionist. Just wondering if it's true. Weird there's no info online about that.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
