Drinking Protein

This might be a dumb question but do I need to drink my protien shake spread out or can I drink it within an hour? I just want to make sure it's getting absorbed and all that.

  • Looks like you're closing in on two weeks post-surgery. Depending a little on what your doctor says about the volume of fluid you should be consuming per hour....I think you're fine to drink a shak

Looks like you're closing in on two weeks post-surgery. Depending a little on what your doctor says about the volume of fluid you should be consuming per hour....I think you're fine to drink a shake in an hour as far as absorption goes. Just make sure your tummy can handle that many ounces in one hour without giving you problems.

Great! I have a hard time spreading it out. I would much rather drink it within 2 hours than sip on it.
