Vegan protein!

I'm not actually vegan, but have found that after surgery I am lactose intolerant. This makes it very hard to get my Protein in while in liquid diet stage!

I need some help! My doctor has extended my liquid diet for a couple more weeks because of other complications. But I am not getting any protein in because I can't keep down any dairy products!

Also, so far the only things I can keep down are frozen/very cold liquids.

Any suggestions? I have tried Soup, and other warm drinks with vegan Protein powder, because of the temp, it won't stay down. And the frozen things won't desolve the protein powder. Any suggestions would be very appreciated.

  • You could try liquid Protein instead of the powders and shakes. Liquid Protein mixes well hot or cold. I used Prosource unflavored but others like the GENEPRO and unjury unflavored Proteins.

Hummus? I ate a lot of that at first.

Where did you find the pro source liquid protein?

I found one called New whey it's hard to get down because it's kind if thick but my nutritionist told me to mix it with my Water. One tube of that is 42g. I haven't tried that yet but I might try it tomorrow and post a little review.

There are a few places to get it online. Here's a link to the unflavored variety. I was given the Prosource no carb in the orange creme flavor in the hospital. They gave me a few packs to take home. I would mix it with 6 ounces of herbal tea. It is very viscous, but mixes well in teas and Soups.
