Does anyone know if we absorb the protein that are in the pure protein shakes?

I was told by my NUT that these are not a good choice for me. However there are several on here that have been told the opposite. Best bet is to call your NUT.

What makes them not a good choice for you?

I think so. What kind of protein is it? It's whey isolate or concentrate, isn't it? Or maybe calcium caseinate? Those are all proteins from milk and we absorb them.

Yeah, that's all protein from milk. Just processed in different ways. We absorb it fine.

Have you tried them? I bought a few flavors and had the chocolate one last week - I drank it down but YUCK the after taste was GROSS! Now i'm not brave enough to drink the Banana one and Strawberry one in the fridge hahahaha.

But if you like them more power to you! :)
