whaletail 0 Posted June 5, 2008 I'm still new to the band world, but today my friends told me about IDS Liquid Protein. It's got 42grams of Protein per 3oz, which I thought was great!!!!! Small amount, and a great amount of protein. It has the consistency of liquid Jello, but was very fruity. Some people mix it with Water, which makes it taste like kool-aid. I decided to just drink it and it was pretty good. It's a little pricey at 2.75 a tube or 25-30 dollars per 12 tube case. I drink it on those days when I am not that hungry, but need to fit in the protein. But well worth it for me, not to have Hair loss or a protein deficiency. It can be found at any Vitamin store, I even found it a smoothie king!!! Just an FYI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:thumbup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
annielkd 0 Posted June 5, 2008 Just so you know... you can still have Hair loss even with the perfect amount of Protein. I lost hair, and the doctor said it went with rapid weight loss, not just protein deficiency. The body goes into shock from the weight loss. It does come back in though!

SueAZ 3 Posted June 5, 2008 Wow what a great amount of Protein. I will have to go out today and see if I can find some. Thanks for the tip... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
One4you2belike 0 Posted June 5, 2008 The nutritionist at my docs office said that anything over 30 grams cannot be absorbed at one time... you may want to check.. no sense in wasting a few grams... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
grammylew 0 Posted June 5, 2008 How many calories? I can get 40 G with 20 oz Isopure for 160 calories. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TexGal 0 Posted June 5, 2008 Just saying hey from a fellow Dr. Davis patient, will be banded June 27th. And thanks for the Protein tip.:confused: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
efan82 1 Posted June 6, 2008 I get these from GNC. My nutritionist also said that you can't absorb that much at once, to I only drink half at a time. I don't really like the way they taste, so I wash it down with a drink. The ones I get have 176 calories in the 42 g Protein One. It is called New Whey liquid Protein. GNC also has one with 27 grams of protein called Protein SLAM! It has 100 calories in 3 oz. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JRT Mom 919 Posted June 7, 2008 I've gotten the carb free Isopure. 40g Protein in 20 oz. The guy there said the same thing--only drink half of it at a time because you'll absorb more of it that way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vegwannabe 1 Posted June 7, 2008 I was looking for some information on the web about Protein absorbtion rates and came across the Calorie King site. It's got a great article on Protein. Here's the link if anyone is interested. Enjoy! CalorieKing Library - Diet & Weight Loss Information - The CalorieKing Protein Guide Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
