Question:
I've started Proteinex and get so much energy from it

I've started Proteinex and get so much energy from it I was wondering if it has something in it that is not good for me. Historically, anything that made me feel this way was amphetamine like. Any input welcomed    — faybay (posted on April 3, 2002)

Maybe you should try something else like Pro-complex. But I am intrigued, so may I asked where you purchased Proteinex ? I would like to read the label and address it to my support group to see if anyone else has experienced this.

I absolutely swear by the stuff! It is awesome. Saw my surgeon today and he was pleased I was taking it. I don't tolerate shakes and bars well at all, they cause me to dump. This is the first protein I can tolerate. The reason it makes you feel so good is it is pre digested and all our body has to do is put it to use. I will NEVER go back to anything else. For the previous poster it is available at WalGreens or WalMart. They do have to special order it for you, you get it within 24 hours of ordering it.

I am a huge Proteinex fan! Not only is the energy a benefit, but if I take it each day I NEVER experience hunger. If I don't take it I do! I have found it is cheaper to order it directly from the company as they ship free. Both Walgreens and Walmart mark up the price. Their website is:<br>http://www.llorenspharm.com<br>There is allot of info on the website as to it's benefits. I am so glad I do not mind the taste. I actually like it!

How much does it cost? I was sent a sample and not a word about the price.

My sugery is 4/22 so I'm in the process of getting all my protein products in order. That being the case I've just ordered Proteinex from the manufacturer and it's $25 for two 8 oz bottles, and they have a bigger bottle, but I don't remember how much it is. No shipping costs. They are very nice when you talk to them. I tried to order it from the Walgreens I go to and they said they never heard of it and that I should try a medical supply store. I read on this site somewhere that if you put it in your water you get your water and protein all at the same time. How cool is that!

Mary, I just ordered some from Walgreens this morning. 16oz is $29 and 8 oz is $16. I think the dose is one or two teaspoons, I don't remember. I didn't think the cost was too bad.
