protein

Anyone have a list of the best fast absorbing brands of protein & do you have a favorite coffee flavored powder? I still use drinks as a snack when I miss lunch. Thanks Donna

Hi Donna, I love Isopure protein drinks. They are in a glass 20 oz. bottle not the powder. It is whey protein isolate. Total 40g of protein. I usually drink 10 oz. at a time. Not sure how fast it absorbs but I've been drinking them since surgery & have been doing great. Judy

Hi Donna... i drink Hoods Carb Countdown Chocolate Milk. It's got 12 gm protein per cup and tastes GREAT. I don't know of any coffee flavored powders. And I'm not sure how fast it absorbs. Sorry... Good Luck, Pam

I've given up on protein shakes for now because they "thicken" up when and cause nausea. I'm using Q-Smart, Momentum, and Carbwell protein bars, whatever is on sale. I try to keep the cost between .85 and 1.25 for the top end of cost. It bothered me for a while until I realized I never hesitated to buy a candy bar or bag of chips everyday. The cost of that old junk food was always more than I pay for a daily protein bar or two.
