Is this protein iced tea safe for diabetic patients, and how much sugar does it contain?
Yes, it is completely diabetic-friendly. Each single packet of Chike Protein Iced Tea contains zero sugar and 0 grams of added sugars, making it an excellent alternative to sweet sugary drinks without risking blood sugar or insulin spikes.
How much protein does a single-serve packet provide?
Each convenient packet delivers 15 grams of high-quality, non-GMO whey protein isolate.
What is the caffeine content?
Every single packet contains 100 mg of caffeine derived from real green tea and organic caffeine.
When can a bariatric patient have this?
Because caffeine can act as a diuretic and irritate a healing stomach lining, most bariatric programs recommend avoiding it for the first 1 to 3 months following weight loss surgery. Always confirm with your surgical team before introducing caffeine back into your diet.
Does this product help with post-op hydration?
Yes. Along with being a great source of protein and fluids, this formula features added electrolytes (including sea salt) to actively support hydration. Staying adequately hydrated can be a major challenge after bariatric surgery, making this dual-purpose drink highly beneficial.
How do I prepare these single-serve packets for the best consistency?
Simply add one packet to 15 ounces of cold water, shake well, and enjoy over ice. To prevent clumping or foaming, it is best mixed in a shaker bottle with cold liquids. Avoid mixing whey protein isolates with boiling water, as high temperatures can alter the smooth texture of the drink.
