Treating Osteoporosis: What works for you?

Need to add protein powders to my diet. I've had to delete many foods from my diet (ckd, diabetes), but the biggest problem remains my IBS. If you would be so kind as to share what you find out about protein powders, I'd be a happy camper. Also, my husband has Dementia, which has affected his food-eating to a considerable extent. Anyone have sneaky ways to have him eat more nourishing meals, I'd appreciate hearing about them. One idea I've tried seems to work, and that is to ask my friends to save that little bit of leftover for me. It adds great variety to his diet, but relieves me of the problem of how to improve his diet without making quantities of food I can't eat.

@trishanna There are a lot of protein powders, even at Hyvee. Whey Powder is the best, but I get at Hyvee the vanilla Nature's Bounty complete Protein & vitamins, chocolate is too strong that's what I found out.' It is uniquely formulated blend of Protein & Vitamin nutients.It says it's for woman, but does have 2 mg of sugar and I think it would be perfect for your husband too. It has collagen,,fiber, and Probiotics in it I hope this help, but if you go too a natural food store they could help you pick one out too. My husband orders a whey one from
Amazon, but I don't l don't like the flavor, It has 30 mg of protein, where mine only has 15 mg. I hope this helps.

@trishanna @lilypaws I have started drinking Fairlife milk. I started because it's lactose-free and I have become lactose intolerant but it also has more protein. Fairlife makes some high protein drinks too that aren't bad.
I would like to find a protein powder, maybe I will look into the vanilla Nature's Bounty Complete Protein & vitamins.

I am finding dieting and eating everything I am supposed to eat to be a challenge.
