I've been reading some info Bev posted in another thread about nutrition after your bypass, and as I'm such a picky eater anyway, I'm concerned about getting the right amount of the right things after my op.
I know in the initial stages that my diet will be liquid based anyway, and wondered if anyone had any experience with 'Ultra Energy Shakes', and if they were suitable post-op?
It seems I'd be able to get the required amount of protein from them, the info from the web is below:
Nature's Plus Ultra Energy Shakes, 33g individual sachet, choice of flavours. Low glycemic, suitable for diabetics, low fat, low carb (4g "net carbs" per serving). Vegetarian. Lactose free. Yeast free. Gluten free. No polyol sweetener (no polytrots). Replace KetoSlim shakes.
This shake contains a full range of vitamins and minerals to support dieters. It includes antioxidant-rich whole food concentrates, plus rutin and lemon bioflavonoids. It is made with a unique protein blend of isolated soy protein, pea protein and rice protein.
Ultra Energy Shakes deliver taste satisfaction along with factors which help maintain stable blood glucose levels. A blend of herbal extracts including cinnamon, bitter melon, fenugreek and more, is especially beneficial.
This shake's controlled-release carbohydrates help to minimise the impact of blood glucose, while its 4g of dietary fibre support blood glucose stability by slowing digestion.
The formula includes some proprietary blends, called GlucoSmart, which make up for nutrients which may be missing from low glycemic or diabetic diets. This include Metabolism (Super Citrimax, carnite and taurine), Green Whole Food Blend (spirulina, chlorella, broccoli, spinach, olive leaf, green tea etc), Red Whole Food Blend (mangosteen, noni, goji, acai and pomegranate, and enzymes), Flora (lactobacillus acidophilus, Bifidobacterium longum and bifidum (probiotics supporting digestion, immune function and overall well-being), and Enzyme (natural enzymes to support healthy digestion (bromelain from pineapple, papain from papaya, Aminozyme and protease.
Nutrition information per serving of 2 scoops (33g): 140 kCal, Fat 1g, of which 0.5g saturated, zero trans fats, Cholesterol zero, Sodium 150mg, Potassium 210mg, Carbohydrate 8g, of which dietary fibre 4g, Sugars 4g, Protein 25g.
Vitamin A, Calcium, Vitamin D, Vitamin K, Riboflavin, Vitamin B6, Vitamin B12, Pantothenic Acid, Iodine, Zinc, Copper, Chromium, Vitamin C, Iron, Vitamin E, Thiamin, Niacin, Folic Acid, Biotin, Phosphorus, Magnesium, Selenium, Manganese, Molybdenum.
Ingredients: Energy Protein Complex (isolated soy protein, pea protein, rice protein), natural vanilla flavour depending on flavour, GlySweet blend of fruit extracts, branched-chain glucose polymers, fructose and fructooligosaccharides), medium chain triglycerides, Glycemynol, GlucoSmart Green Whole Food Blend, GlucoSmart Red Whole Food Blend, phosphorus (amini acid chelate/di-calcium phosphate), Vitamin C, magnesium oxide, potassium (chloride/citrate), microcrystalline cellulose, psyllium seed husk, spirulina, inositol, Vitamin E succinate, choline bitartrate, calcium carbonate, bioflavonoids, rutin, apple pectin, GlucoSmart Metabolism, zinc monomethionine, pantothenic acid, beta carotene, ForLean, PABA, GlucoSmart Enzyme, thiamine HCI, pyridoxine HCI, riboflavin, GlucoSmart Flora, niacinamide, manganese (amino acid chelate/sulfate), lecithin, ferrous sulfate, papaya, chlorophyll, copper aminoate, Vitamin B12, lutein, hawthorn berries, green tea, guggul extract, folic acid, chromium polynicotinate, biotin, sodium selenite, iodine (kelp), molybdenum (amino acid chelate/molybdate), Vitamin D2, corosolic acid, Vitamin K, phew!
Any thoughts??
