Freezing protein powders



Recommended Posts

Has anyone had experience with putting unflavored Protein Powder in Soups and freezing them. Does it seem to freeze well, or should I just add it when I'm ready to eat it.

Freezing whey Protein has no effect on it. It can change the original consistency of what you had frozen though. Cooking Whey protein depends on how long and at what temp you cook it. Whey Protein begins to break down the amino acid bioavailability when the temperature hits 167 degrees Fahrenheit. That breakdown makes the protein much harder for the body to digest. As an example: if you cook it at 194 degrees Fahrenheit for over 5 minutes you still have 80% solubility, so you only lost 20% efficacy. What bodybuilders do is mix it in after its heated and eat it right away. Also, don't always cook it. Make shakes, stir into pudding, applesauce, etc. Hope this helps [emoji106]

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
