Liquid Protien?



Recommended Posts

I have heard there is a liquid form of protien that you take in one shot and it gives you all you need for the whole day. Does anyone know what it's called or where to buy it?

There are several, but my Dr. said they aren't that great because your body can only absorb so much Protein at once so it's kind of a waste.

Those kind of Protein Shots don't work for us. For one, our bodies can't absorb all of it at once. Plus the kind of Protein they put in those things isn't the kind we need. I would find a flavored protein you like, I've heard that nectar makes some good flavors. Merry Christmas

Yes, the Protein in those shots are from collogen, they are not bio available, and also can cause dumping. whey protein concentrate, or whey protein isolate are the best types, so to speak. You can't absorb more than 30-35 grams of protein at a tiem anyway, there is a section on one of the forums under Protein Shakes where you can order tons of samples. I ordered a bunch to try them all, and then ordered the protein I liked best from the samples. Good luck!

well that kind of Protein is a "last resort" type of protein, but you can buy New Whey in Walmart for like 2.50 a piece, and they also have it in 6 packs. It also comes in several different flavors. If you are absolutely struggling to get in your protein, its a good way to catch up. But i would not use it as my only source of protein.

It appears that that the "Yes Whey" Protein shot sold by Bariatric Advantage is a better choice over the "New Whey" bullets. The collagen protein used in "New Whey" has a PDCAAS score of 0.08 out of 1 where the 100% pure whey protein used in "Yes Whey" has a score of 1 out of 1.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
