I have been having a hard time getting all my protein in so I was looking online and I found New Whey, it's a 3.8oz and it has 42g of protein in it, they look like those little 5hour energy's. GNC and Vitamin Shops have them but I found a variety pack on amazon it ended up being 30.95 with shipping. So they should be here in a few days and I will give you an update! Fingers crossed that would make life so much easier!

I haven't tried them but Let us know what you think when you get them. I'm having trouble with protein too

msky - it sure makes sense to me that it would be easier :-) Can't wait to hear what you think! Good luck :-)

The Protein Digestibility Corrected Amino Acid Score (PDCAAS) has been adopted by the U.S. food and Drug Administration, the World Health Organization, the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Institute of Medicine at the National Academy of Sciences. PDCAAS is the internationally recognized standard for determining protein quality for human consumption.

PDCAAS rates protein quality on a scale of 1.0 (best) to 0.0 (worst). Whey, milk, soy and egg Proteins all have a PDCAAS score of 1.0.

Now look at the nutrition label for New Whey liquid Protein - http://www.vitaminshoppe.com/p/new-whey-nutrition-new-whey-liq-protein-42-fruit-12-shots/yq-1007#.Uz2z9SlOVMs . Notice that the first ingredient (the law requires the ingredients be listed in the order of most abundant first) is "...collagenic protein isolate". Collagen protein has a PDCAAS score of 0.08. For all intents and purposes, it is indigestible. All of the protein in the world is useless if your body cannot digest it.

The only protein shot or bullet that I have seen that is not made with collagen protein is "Yes Whey". You can see the nutrition label for Yes Whey at - http://www.704nutrition.com/Cheap-Protica-Yes-Whey-Liquid-Protein-Shots-p/6080018.htm . Notice that the first ingredient after deionized water is "whey protein isolate (milk)" which has a PDCAAS score of 1.0. Yes Whey shots are made from very highly digestible, very high quality, whey protein isolate.

Now before you run out and buy a case, it should be noted that whey isolate is made using a high-tech nano filtering process which removes virtually all fat and carbohydrates. The end result, although exceptionally rich in healthy protein, comes at what many consider a very high cost in terms of taste. I've never personally tried them but there are members on the forum that have and they have indicated that they leave a lot to be desired in terms of taste.

Of course taste is very subjective. And protein shots are very attractive to bariatric surgery patients because you can get a LOT of protein in a very small volume. Best advice would be to buy one and try it. Yes Whey is a healthy option if you find the taste acceptable.

I tried the grape. Ewwww Gross!!! The smell was so bad and the taste was worse. I mixed it with some grape propel water.

I'd rather drink a big glass of my MRM chocolate than a shot of that stuff. Sounds terrible. I also couldn't stand the Isopure. I'm making Jello out of it- maybe that will help

I ordered the sample pack so I could see if I liked a flavor before ordering a bunch, well it came Friday and they sent me just blue raspberry so I have to call on Monday to have them correct it. Needless to say I still have not tried it :-(

I tried the fruit punch and green apple, they aren't that good. They have an after taste that isn't acquired.
