From lectures, seminars, my doctor, and speaking to other post op patients, whey protein seems to be easiest to digest. I've seen soy protin, and I have tried that. But it seems to "sit" in my system, whereas the whey protein seems to be easier to tolerate. Even though it's 1 1/2 years since my surgery, I still have a whey protein shake several times a week. Did you try a different brand? I use the IsoPure, and find it's taste acceptable. Other people have said they find the taste "too gritty". No every protein shake is tolerated well. There is the Prostat 64, another protein subsititute. But many find it's taste too strong. Ragdolldude

You could try powdered egg protien.

If you are looking a good protein I suggest you go to a GNC and buy it. I have found some their that is great. It comes in many flavors, such as banana cream, orange cream, cookie and cream.....the orange is my favorite. I drink it everyday because I know I do not get the protein I need in by eating. I use it in sugar free ice cream to make a great milkshake. That is how I do mine. I do this one time a day. It has 20 grams of protein per scoop. So with the milk and the ice cream you get in a good amount of protein in one drink. Good Luck!

I just found a low carb. Slimfast shake. Only comes in Choc or vanilla but I am tolerating it great. Each can has 20g Protien. Only problem is I can only find them At Rite aid.
