Bariatric Protein Shakes

Bariatric Protein Shakes With 15g of Protein

It’s difficult to hit your daily protein intake after bariatric surgery because of your smaller stomach and altered gut hormones. These bariatric meal replacement shakes are made with calcium caseinate, a slow-digesting dairy protein. Casein helps to maintain muscle mass and support your recovery. We offer 9 flavors to choose from, each containing 15g of protein and in a low calorie, low sugar, and low carb powder.

Why Protein is so Important After Bariatric Surgery

Protein supports muscle maintenance while you lose weight. Many people struggle to consume enough protein after a metabolic surgery due to the smaller meal size. If you don’t eat enough protein while losing weight, your body resorts to burning muscle tissue instead of fat.

FAQ

What is the best protein drink for bariatric patients?

Look for a protein drink that aligns with the nutrition guidelines from your bariatric care team and suits your taste and texture preferences. Diet Direct offers bariatric protein shakes with 15g of protein and low-sugar options.

Is it okay to just drink protein shakes after bariatric surgery?

Protein shakes may form most of your diet during the initial liquid phase. However, you should gradually introduce puréed, soft and solid foods according to your bariatric team’s plan rather than relying exclusively on shakes long-term.

What is the #1 meal replacement in the world?

There is no universally recognized “number-one” meal replacement for everyone. The best choice fits your nutritional needs and medical plan. Diet Direct’s Wonderslim shakes provide 15 grams of protein and 24 vitamins and minerals per serving.

What is the 30/30 rule for bariatric patients?

The 30/30 rule generally means avoiding liquids for 30 minutes before and 30 minutes after eating. This helps prevent food from passing through the smaller stomach too quickly, although your surgical team’s specific instructions should take priority.
