Frustr8 7,886 Posted January 20, 2019 Fairlife milk is very good so I would see no reason these shakes would not be also. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Laughing Bird 65 Posted January 20, 2019 The macros look great! If you like the taste and feel good drinking them, I say go for it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
anonbaribabe 236 Posted January 20, 2019 I'm curious about these, too! I use Fairlife milk in my shakes, but these would be good for variety and on the go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jazzy1125 1,010 Posted January 20, 2019 I have never had fairlife but would be interested. I make all my shakes with Water. I wonder if i should start making them with milk to get in more Protein, but then i have heard your body cannot process more than 30g at a time and if my shake is 25.. not sure if adding the milk is beneficial.

My Protein Powder recommends mixing with 8 ounces of water/milk, but since I use Fairlife I use 6 ounces. This gives me about 30g Protein and a smaller Protein Shake, which I like because I hate Protein Shakes. 1 Frustr8 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
anonbaribabe 236 Posted January 21, 2019 I went to the store today and remembered to pick up the Core Power shakes. I got chocolate and it's okay. It kind of reminds me of a Yoohoo, but less sweet. I don't love it, but I don't hate it as much as other Protein Shakes. 1 Frustr8 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MMC8021 4 Posted January 22, 2019 I am 2 weeks post op and find that I’m very bloated and gasey after I drink my Protein Shakes with skim milk or 1% milk. . I decided to try the fairlife milk as my PA recommended it in pre-op class if we found we were sensitive to milk. I have to say the Fairlife milk 1% tastes thicker and heavier then whole milk. I can’t tolerate it. Feels like I’m using heavy cream to make my shakes. I do add a few ice cubes to my Protein shakes and blend them in my small blender. It makes them a bit more tolerable. The ice breaks down completely and just makes the shake frothy and taste better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thay1997 0 Posted January 22, 2019 I have been drinking the Premier Protein shake. That’s what my surgeon recommended. It’s by far the best one I’ve tried!! Tastes delicious, and it’s very light Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
