Casein might be OK for gastric sleeve patients after the post op liquid phase. It’s most definitely NOT ok for gastric bypass or DS patients. See Dr. Rollers post above.

No offense Alex, but just because one Dr. has that opinion does not make it a proven fact.

There might be a study in the works on this issue

I could not find any completed studies, so this is Dr. roller's conjecture.

The RNY bypassed just 3 feet of the small intestine, but still leaves 17. So it doesn't make sense to me that would make casein an ineffective source of Protein for bypass patients.

Please do more research. You’re very mistaken. See http://bariatrictimes.com/protein-and-the-bariatric-patient-supplemental-protein-or-amino-acids/ . Google a little and you’ll find MANY studies showing that WPI is definitely the way to go for patients that have malabsorptive procedures.

Alex ... from the article

" Whether rapid versus slow uptake of amino acids are better for Protein gain among bariatric patients have not been explored."

There was absolutely nothing in that article that supports the claim that casein is inappropriate for RNY patients.

I've found a blend that has equal parts. WPI WPC & CASEIN plus amino acids and luecine.

Best of both worlds

Both whey and caesin Proteins are great for weight loss. Whey generally helps build muscle mass for body builders. Caesin is good for preventing muscle loss during weight loss. Whey is digested much faster than caesin which may produced satiety sooner. Caesin digests much slower so can ward off hunger.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
