Have read numerous comments of people complaint that they cannot get their Protein in. Has anyone tried the Protein Shots? I read about some that have 50 of protein for a little over 3 ounces. Are they bad???? I am presurgery and just trying to find a good protein.

I didn't try then because the reviews are so bad. People on Amazon as well as here said they tasted horrid. But you might find one you like. I didn't try these either but more people here said they could tolerate Isopure Clear liquids with Protein than the shots.

Also though there's some evidence to suggest our bodies only absorb 35 gms of Protein at a time so hey may also be overkill.

I do the whey Protein Shots sometimes. It's usually on Sundays which is the only day when I sleep in late which throws off my schedule & daily routine. It has 42 grams and it kind of taste like cough Syrup. I only like the watermelon and normally drink Water afterwards.

Do you mean protein shots like New Whey protein shots at Walmart? If so here's some reading to do about why these are no good- http://www.verticalsleevetalk.com/topic/74651-new-whey-liquid-protein-42g/#entry761245

I recently started drinking them. I don't mind the bad taste. My pain killer post-op tasted worse lol... Only have it when I need some extra Protein. And I usually have half of one at a time.

I have learned if I take the why Protein and mix it with Water and my mio it kinda takes that cough syrup taste away

Sadly I bought the ones my surgeons office recommended and I got them 3 days after I developed an allergy to whey Protein.. Super!

They are the PROFECT Protein Shots

I'd like to say I know how they work and taste but I have 11 vials just chillin in the kitchen.. There went 30 bucks ....

My Nutritionist said not to use them, that they are not a source of good Protein, because they contain the wrong kind of protein, and most of what they contain isn't absorbed into the body. She said only to use protein sources with whey protein isolate. I use Isopure low carb, and they are 25g of protein for 6 ounces, 30g if you mix it with milk instead of Water.< /p>
