Question:
Does anyone know if there is such a thing as protein pills? :)

there ARE... sort of. you can obtain them online or at the vitamin shoppe. they are chewable and each tablet is about 4 or 5 calories. but each tablet only has ONE gram of protein-- so you would need to chew quite a few to get a significant amount.

I've seen them. They have a small amount of protein- a few grams. Protein drinks and high protein foods are a better way to go. I like the "Health Wise" brand of protein drinks. You may find then on the internet.

HI...I have done an exhaustive search for that when I had just had my surgery. There really isnt. The best is the isopure w/ milk.

Yes, you can find it at Puritan's Pride online. You have to take about 12 to get 6 grams of protein. But I just take 4 every morning just to help with my protein. Since my surgery in 2003 I don't eat alot of meat at all. I have a hard time eating any type of meat, i eat more veggies then anything. So the pills help some.

Yes I have heard of Protein bullets which contains 42g of protein. They are a bit pricey but seem to be worth trying. I deffinitely plan on getting these to supplement my protein intake. Here are some sites I found to have them: http://www.ibariatric.com/42G_Protein_Bullet_p/pb42.htm http://www.proteinbullet.com/store/ Hope that helps to answer your question. Best wishes!
