Liquid Protein

[DanielHoughton 0]

I'm post op (10/1), and have been having trouble getting enough Protein daily. Today, I went to GNC and found a Liquid Protein shot. 4 oz per with no sugars or carbs. 50 grams of protein. Taste is tolerable at best and hasn't had any negative effects. Has anyone else tried ?ththesethesehheard anything

Some people on this vst site say that the liquid Protein Shots don't have any nutritional value & they don't really have protein in them. I was sleeved on July 31st and I have been drinking the liquid protein shots (mixed into my daily ice water) every day. They made my fingernails grow a lot. I have never had long fingernails all of my life, I'am 47 years old. I haven't shown my doctor the liquid protein shot, however I will Thursday night at my wls support group meeting. I'll let you know what my doc says about the liquid protein shot. Btw don't buy the beef liquid protein, they are very nasty.

Lol. That's actually the one I bought. It is rough tasting, but tolerable. My thinking was beef/protein = sounds right.

They do contain Protein, but the type of protein they contain is not what you need, nor will your body utilize it properly. Therefore, for what you are trying to accomplish, they are worthless.
