Any suggestions on the best type of protein supplements to use pre-op and post-op? I'm doing my research ahead of time.

    Hi Wendyn- There are lots of opinions and schools of thought. So with that said... I can only give you my opinion and what I use. ;) So most protein that I get is whey protein isolate. I find that the isolate is easier to digest and absorb. I like the Unjury products. I do also like the premier protein products (even though this is Whey protein concentrate).

    There are lots out there. I suggest stopping by a health food store and see if they have any samples. You can also get samples from various websites as well.

    Good luck!

    I'm still pre-surgery but I've been pricing some of the protein supplements. The good ones seem so expensive, but I need to remember that I should have extra spending money since there will be no more stops at Taco Bell or Dairy Queen.
