Guest guest Posted August 10, 2006 Report Share Posted August 10, 2006 We use Isopure. It has 40g of protein per 20 oz. We recommend pts drink 1 1/2 bottles during the clear liquid phase (to = 60g/day). -------------- Original message -------------- From: "Leslee Ortiz" <lesleeortiz@...> I am an RD at a small community hospital which is planning on starting a surgical wt loss program in the fall. Have any of you used "Juven" made by Ross Labs as their clear liquid post op supplement? If so,what advantages and disadvantages have you noticed with this formula?What other high protein, low CHO clear liquid supplements are routinely used in your centers with success?Thanks,Leslee Ortiz, RD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 10, 2006 Report Share Posted August 10, 2006 We recommend any 'clear' protein drinks-Isopure, or a high protein low fat low carb powder (whey protein) that can be mixed with water such as the Nectar range from bariatric eating.

Guest guest Posted August 11, 2006 Report Share Posted August 11, 2006 We have many Bariatric Programs who recommend UNJURY Protein as a clear liquid supplement after surgery. UNJURY contains 20 grams of whey protein isolate per serving. Clear liquid ideas include: Strawberry Sorbet UNJURY mixed with water or lemonade Unflavored UNJURY mixed with fruit flavored Crystal Light, Unflavored UNJURY mixed in broth, Unflavored mixed with sugar-free gelatin.

Guest guest Posted August 13, 2006 Report Share Posted August 13, 2006 Thanks Ciara. Do you know who makes Isopure? Can it be mixed into hot broth? Is it neutral in taste?

Guest guest Posted August 13, 2006 Report Share Posted August 13, 2006 Leslee I have only seen it at GNC. It is a liquid (almost like colored water) in a large bottle (?24oz). It seems to be popular and comes in a variety of flavors. CiaraLeslee Ortiz <lesleeortiz@...> wrote: Thanks Ciara. Do you know who makes Isopure? Can it be mixed into hot broth?

Guest guest Posted August 13, 2006 Report Share Posted August 13, 2006 Hi, I think Isopure is made by Nature's Best (www.naturesbest.com)..... or at least you can get it through that web site. I've also seen it at GNC. Hope that helps, Beth Re: Clear Liquids post-op Gastric Bypass We recommend any 'clear' protein drinks-Isopure, or a high protein low fat low carb powder (whey protein) that can be mixed with water such as the Nectar range from bariatric eating.
