I talked to the nutritionist about Protein. She said 60 - 70 grams per day. My question is, if this becomes absorbed by the small intestine, how much do you need daily before you absorb that much? I am also interested in vitamine absorption. How much do you take in order for your body to get what it needs. Help

I'm trying to get in the 60g of protein a day but my doctor says that's the minimum that is needed. Also I'm taking two mulivitamins and two Calcium supplements a day along with B12.

Hi all! I'm 3 weeks out from surgery and am in the puréed phase. I'm having a hard time getting in my daily Protein and am looking for suggestions on what to eat. My doctor would prefer I not rely on Protein shakes so I'm really struggling. Any help that can be offered is a HUGE help!
