A lot of people on the forum say isolate absorbs better than the blend, but I can't find any info online about that. Where did this info come from? I'd like to read about it. Thanks!

What? It is listed on the Internet so by golly, it must be true. :)

I don't have an online source, but that's the info I was given by the hospital nut, my drs Nut, and my best friend is a personal trainer/nut and agreed with the assessment when I was nattering on about the plan they'd given me.

I've heard it absorbs FASTER than other Proteins or blends. I've not heard the term BETTER used with isolate. I may be wrong, but that's just what I've read about isolate. Unless of course it is right after a workout (resistance training), which I think faster is better for muscle recovery. So that's why I take it right after a workout. But I also keep a blend or casein Protein around for right before I go to bed on days that I've had a really intense workout....when I can think of it anyway. :P I probably only take that once or twice a week. For me, it's all a guess....and maybe for the nutritionists as well. :wacko:

I have read it absorbs faster but can't find info on absorbing better. I had my surgery in MX and don't have a Nutritionist. Just wondering if it's true. Weird there's no info online about that.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
