Most of our family has blood sugar issues. Liquid protein has become an essential element in finding a way to live our lives and not always have to say 'no.' I take it in the morning with some fresh fruit for a top notch breakfast which allows me to begin my day with balanced blood sugar (YMMV). However, where it really shines is with my elementary school aged son. He can't handle sugar. A piece of cake on an empty stomach and he'll be hitting himself within the hour. This should leave parties at school out for him. However, if he heads down to the nurses office for a couple of spoonfuls of liquid protein either before or immediately after the sugar-laden party, you'd never know sugar was a problem for him. It creates enough of a complex digestive mix his blood sugar won't spike so terribly high, thus it also won't dive so awfully low.

Pros:
Allows one to have the occasional food cheat and not pay the consequences. Great way to begin the day with balanced blood sugar. This is predigested collagen whey protein and easily assimilated. It also has Amino Acids and B-Complex vitamins. Even with multiple people using it, the bottles seem to last a long time.
Cons:
We use the version which doesn't have any sugar/fake sugar/carbs/ and fats and it tastes yucky! They do have a better tasting version available but it has some with sugar and causes me to crave sugar. |
