    caffeine & chocolate protein drinks

    I have a bladder problem and my doctor tells me not to drink caffeine.  I drink protein drinks.  Right now I am drinking GNC Total Lean 25 Rich Chocolate flavor.   I know chocolate has caffeine in it.  Am I getting caffeine with these drinks.

     Dark chocolate contains the most caffeine at about 636mg per POUND.. an 8 oz cup of coffee has between 95 - 200mg of caffeine.  GNC Total Lean Rich Chocolate has about 50mg of caffeine in a two scoop serving (according to shopping.com).   So two scoops is equivilant to half the caffeine in a lower caffeine cup of coffee.  Does that make sense?  =]  If you are only drinking 1 or even 2 a day, you should be fine (but, I must add that I am not a doctor).  
            

         

    One of my favorite protein powders is CLICK. They just came out with a caffein free powder. You can check them out at:   drinkclick.com
