Proteinex?

Is it safe to take post op?

I have to family members who have had gastric bypass several years ago and they said for the first month, their doc required they take it. Anyone with the sleeve try it?

Oh and another question if I may, as I said their wls surgery was several years ago and they are able to eat pretty much everything. I know the question on the sleeved stomach being stretched has been thrown around, but I wonder if the way they can now eat will be similar to me in the future?

How is this working out for you?

I have Protenix. My surgeon requires we buy it Atleast the first 3 months of surgery. He sells it right in the office. It's horrible tasting but doable. I take 2 TS 4 times a day and it gives 68grams of protein.

I took protonix, it is safe. My body got adjusted to it so I was just changed to prevacid. I eat almost whatever I want just a very small amount. I dont eat sweets, carbonation, very seldom any type bread, occasionally one bite of rice and no regular Pasta. I do eat dreamfield pasta and that is still only a bite or two.

Is this the stuff you are talking about? Please look at the first ingredient. It is collagen, this stuff is complete garbage. Your body cannot use it. What is more upsetting is tat doctore are ignorantly recommending this to their patients. The human body is incapable of utilizing collagen Proteins.

Don't waste your money. On the PDCAAS collagen comes in at a .08, meaning for evert 1g of collagen Protein you consume, your body will use only 0.08g. Collagen is so bad that it can't even be measured on the P.E.R. protein scale.

Even if you drank the whole 30oz bottle (540g protein) your body would only actually absorb 43.2g. So you'd need 2 bottles a day to fill your bodies need for protein.
