Per my guidelines, the New whey is a big no. It's 42 grams of Protein, but only about 11 grams of it is something your body can process well as Protein, so the rest of it is essentially meaningless from a protein standpoint.

From the looks of things, the Body Fortress brand is similar in that the first protein on the list is collegen. The whey and casein are fine, but collegen is, again, not processed effectively by our bodies as protein and it's the largest share of the protein in the shot.

I'm not a nutrition specialist by any means, this is just based on what I've been told to look for before using a protein shot by people who do have expertise.

Bottom line - they won't hurt you, but they won't give you the bang for the buck that you might be looking for.

It has to have whey isolate so your body can receive all of the protein. Per my nutritionist of GBMC.

I have been adding these to my daily meals. One in the morning and one early evening. My Hair loss has almost stopped and I credit it from being able to get enough Protein in.

Per the experts I've spoken with, that's only partly true. Whey isolate is one of the best, but casein is good for sustained release (keeps you feeling full longer) and both soy isolate and egg Protein are acceptable, especially if you don't tolerate whey well. What isn't good is collagen.< /p>

      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! 😞
