I used a pill crusher and put it in Crysal Light. :unsure: Worked great.

I take my chewable Multi-Vitamin with my Protein shake. Drink 1/2 first....chew up the Vitamin (while holding my breath) and then sip it down with more shake. My NUT advises crushing it and stirring it into a little yogurt.....thinned if your on liquids.

Some days the taste isn't bad..other days it's rough. I'm not quite at 3 weeks yet.

I crushed all my pills too at first. Before you know it, you will be able to take them normally or better yet, not have to take them at all!

I started to crush on the beginning but I have some extended release meds. Just be careful. My dr adjusted my doses to accommodate. Also gave me prescriptions that are capsules instead of pills. I open the capsules and swallow the contents. The others I just cut in half and I'm ok.

      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.

      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.
