Can protein really be

I've heard such varied opinions on this, and cannot get a clear answer even from my surgeon, as he isn't a fan of protein drinks. Can your body truly "store" or "build up" a reserve of protein if you do shakes and supplements pre-op, or is it just a waste of money (which is what the nutritionist says)... I'd like to hear from anyone who was instructed in this (either for or against) by their docs... thanks. (sorry if this has been asked before, I tried searching the library but it is WAY too overwhelming, couldn't find it).
