Bypass Surgery

Bypass surgery continues to be one of the leading solutions in the fight against obesity. Along with bypass surgery comes the responsibility of a strict dietary regimen. One of the dietary challenges for the bypass surgery patient is protein intake. In 2002, Protica Research pioneered the development and manufacture of the first protein shot, called Profect. Profect allows a bypass surgery patient to consume up to 50 grams of protein in less than three fluid ounces.

People who are considering bypass surgery should expect to pay more attention to their protein intake post surgery.

People who undergo bypass surgery must drastically alter their diets, and consequently protein intake may dangerously decrease. To ensure the maximum amount of protein is effectively incorporated into bypass surgery patient diets, protein supplements are necessary.

Protein deficiencies in bypass surgery patients are common and can be avoided by adding a protein supplement as part of the patient's new diet plan.
