I am actually surprised they would suggest you drink something so high in sugar.

First of all, it's my understanding not all whey protein is equal. Here's some info from the Vitalady.com website:
| Whey Protein Isolate It is the purest form of whey protein. It gets into the blood system the quickest. Is generally the most expensive to use and although it mixes well it can “foam" up. They tend not to be as filling or satisfying, but fulfill the protein requirements very well. |
| Whey Protein Concentrate It gets into the system very slowly. It is generally the least expensive to use. It shakes well and pretty completely. |
| Whey Protein Blend Is a combination of the two above. These usually seem to be more “satisfying" and stay with us longer so we tend not to graze or crave carbs as much. Generally they shake well but may leave some clumps if you aren’t careful. |
| Whey Protein Meal Replacement They are generally a whey protein blend that is much thicker and requires a lot more water. Best for preop and long term postop customers that are more comfortable with larger volume. |
| Predigested Collagen Protein These are collagen based proteins, which are lower on the “bioavailability" scale. They contain some amino acids, but not ALL. Best used in addition to whey protein for additional protein intake. Easily added to water to “cut"the extreme tastes. |
