Soy Protein Powder Recommendations Needed
Hi,
I am being treated for a C. difficile infection. If you don't know what that is, I can sum it up quickly. I had horrific diarrhea upwards of 15-20 times a day for over 6 weeks. I only mention that because it will make it easier for you to understand why I can't tolerate most solid food right now, except for those evil white carbs!
I am not allowed any dairy products, including greek yogurt, for the time being. So when I realized that whey protein isolate comes from cows, well, there went my protein shake supplementation idea.
But I CAN have soy protein. It is not my first choice, and I know it is not optimal for my RNY, but I have to get in some protein!
Suggestions?
I use a few brands - all natural - not splenda...
