protein powder?

Can anyone recommend a protein powder specifically for PS healing? A surgeon I just saw (and decided not to use) Recommended one from bariatric advantage but they no longer make it. Any ideas?

WE USE A PRODUCT CALLED "UNJURY". IT IS THE BEST TASTING Protein Powder WE HAVE FOUND. THEY MAKE SEVERAL FLAVORS AND I ORDER MINE ON LINE, HOPE THIS HELPS.

The one I use the most is probably Lean Dessert. Awesome stuff!

Go to GNC and get "Amplified 100% Whey Protein." Taste great and add a few vitamins and minerals plus it has useful Lipids for saturation. In other words it is absorbed into the body well. $39.99 and it is Buy one get one half. Offers more amino acids to the muscles for growth. Buy the $20 a year membership and the first week of the month is always 20% off on top of buy one get one half off. Hope this helps. PS tastes awesome but only tried the chocolate. tthippy

Another vote for "UNJURY" protein.

sorry to ask, but i am new at this, what does ps stand for?

thanks

I use Unjury too. I use the unflavored in my jello, the vanilla in my vanilla pudding, and the chocolate and vanilla (plus some dried milk) in my skim milk high-protein shakes. I also have started using the chicken soup flavor in my broth and after I've let my low-fat cream of chicken/mushroom cool. Order it from Amazon; it comes quickly!

I also use the "Amplified" and so far it is the best I have tried. I use the vanilla in smoothies with Greek yogurt, fruit, almond butter, and skim milk. I pour it over some crushed ice and it is yummy! Have used the chocolate too with banana, yogurt, and the skim milk. Both are really good. I bought the membership card and it saved me a lot!

Good luck.

i use a whey protein mix that i buy at cvs pharmacy,only 14.99 a bag and its tasty

Another vote for Unjury - love all the flavors. I mix the strawberry sorbet w/ raspberry lemonade crystal light. The chocolate, I mix with skim milk for breakfast and late afternoon snack - espcially when I need a chocolate fix. The chicken soup, I have with lunch sometimes and also use it as a base for other soups/sauces.

The PS I spoke with didnt recommend one but told me that he expected me to get 100 grams of protein a day. At the store I go to they have ABS Protein shakes. Two hundred and fifty calories and 50 grams of protein. Two shakes and I will meet my quota. Hope this helps.

OK, I'm too lazy to deal with powders but I am vegetarian so protein is critical. I start every day with a Premier Protein drink from Cosco...choc or vanilla. 30 grams of protein and 160 cals!
