Syntrax Nectar is saving the day...
Jan 13, 2015
So, I'm now 9 days post op and have been home from the hospital for nearly a week. The one thing that is a constant struggle at this phase is getting in the amount of protein suggested by my centre. Before surgery I bought a ton of tubs of Syntrax Nectar protein powder and boy am I glad i did! This protein, unlike most whey isolate powders, mixes up like juice so it's a bit easier to drink more like water than a milky protein shake is. I've been swapping in Syntrax for some of my water and I'm getting closer to meeting my protein goals every day! In the early post-op days it's really hard to get much volume in, given how slowly you have to eat and drink. Thankfully I like the Syntrax now as much as I did pre-op (some people have palate changes that lead to aversions to sweet flavours, etc.).
