Bariatric Protein Shakes

Bariatric protein shakes are specially formulated beverages or powders that deliver concentrated protein with minimal sugar and calories. Unlike standard protein drinks, they are tailored to the nutritional requirements of those who have had bariatric surgery, such as gastric bypass or sleeve gastrectomy.

Protein Shakes After Bariatric Surgery

When choosing the best protein shakes for bariatric patients, experts recommend looking for the following nutritional profile:

• High Protein Content: Around 15 grams per serving is ideal to meet daily protein goals.
• Low Sugar: Less than 5 grams per serving helps prevent dumping syndrome and keeps calories in check.
• Low Calories: 150–180 calories or less per serving is recommended.
• Fortified with Vitamins and Minerals: Many shakes include essential micronutrients to support recovery and overall health.
• Easy to Digest: Formulated to be gentle on sensitive post-surgery digestive systems.
• Great Taste and Variety: Available in flavors like chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, and more, with options for different textures and recipes.
