Whipple procedure and follow up chemo

Since protein is important for healing and maintenance I wonder if there are protein drinks to supplement your diet? Years ago when I was on chemo for breast cancer I didn’t feel like eating meats- mostly breads, pasta and hot dogs! Nowadays there must be nutritionists that can advice- I hope.

You can also make your own protein shakes as it’s summer and berries are plentiful! Buy some organic protein powder, add almond milk, strawberries, blueberries and bananas! You can add additional calories by adding things such as flaxseed, chai seeds, hemp hearts, and coco powder!

@astaingegerdm Hello to you and @susandc some protein drinks are Boost and Ensure. We always used them at the hospital. There are also protein powders that can be mixed into everything. Can get these at a grocery store. Most people drink them ice cold and others like them frozen like ice cream. Enjoy!
