Protein powder

Thread Starter  

Aquestion for pre- and post-op clear liquids. Can you use protein powder or do you just rely on the protein in the broth you drink? Thank you. I'm being banded Oct. 14 and I thought I had a handle on all of this. The closer I get the more questions pop into my mind!

for me the first few days was just clear liquids after that it was full liquids,once I went to full liquids I could have protein drinks.I will even suggest Bolthouse soy protein drinks and Green goodness it looks gross taste great and has tons of nutrients and very satisfying.

You can also dissolve a full packet of Knox Gelatin into your broth or clear liquids to get about 10 grams of protein easily into a clear liquid.
