Protein is a major functional and structural component of all the cells of the body. Deficiency of this important macronutrient is common after bariatric surgery as dietary intake of protein is generally reduced following procedures. Studies have shown that even 12 months after bariatric surgery, many patients do not get the minimum recommended daily protein intake of 60 g/day.1
ASMBS guidelines for post-surgical bariatric patients call for a minimum protein intake of 60 g/day and up to 1.5 g per kg of ideal body weight per day, with higher levels to be assessed on an individualized basis.2 Other bariatric clinical guidelines state 70-120 g per day as likely more adequate, while some patients may need >100 g of protein per day based on procedure and body weight.2,3

Delicious, but Acidic
Emily Miller from Oviedo, FL
I would drink this all day if I could. It has a great flavor and the 20g of protein is awesome!
However, there is something about it that dries out my mouth and makes it sore. I'm assuming it has a high acidity that's causing it, but it definitely prevents me from actually enjoying it. I only use it now when I'm low on protein AND hydration intake. Unfortunately, I'll use up what I have left and won't be ordering more.
