My surgeon and nutritionist say stay away from Protein shots. I can't think at this moment what specific ingredient is in this that we shouldn't have. If I read the label I would know. But off the top of my head I don't remember.

Plus we only absorb 30grams of Protein (max) at a time.

If I remember the ingredient I will get back to you. If someone can help me remember that would be great too.

Yeah, they have them at Walmart. That's not whey isolate. (i don't think. I think that's why I skipped them)

The Ingredients are "Water, Complete Protein Matrix (Ids Proprietary Blend of collagen Protein Isolate, whey Protein Isolate, Casein Protein Isolate), Phosphoric Acid, Natural And Artificial Flavor, Sucralose, Sodium Hexametaphosphate, Acesulfame Potassium, Sodium Benzoate, Potassium Sorbate, Red 40, Calcium Disodium Salt. Contains: Milk." Idk what percentages are, but "blend of collagen protein isolate" comes first, and whey protein isolate comes second. So Idk. It probably isn't really 48 grams that we can digest, but some. I'll ask my nutritionist.

Yup collagen is the bad stuff....would depend on how much whey....my guess is much collagen and little whey....that's just a guess!

Collagen Protein is an incomplete protein meaning that it does not have one or more of the nine essential amino acids. Essential because your body requires them but cannot synthesize them on its own. More importantly, collagen protein has a PDCAAS (Protein Digestibility Corrected Amino Acid Score) score of 0.08 which means that it is virtually indigestible. All the protein in the world is useless if your body can't digest it. The Nutrition Labeling and Education Act requires that ingredients be listed in descending order of predominance and weight. So if collagen is listed first, it is the most predominant ingredient.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
