If you've had a gastric bypass, it's very important to get enough protein. It is generally recommended that gastric bypass patients get a minimum of 60 grams of protein per day. It can be difficult to get that much protein from food, since you will only be able to eat small portions. For this reason, many gastric bypass patients use protein drinks or shakes to supplement their diet. Protein drinks or shakes can be used in place of a meal, or they can be used as a snack.

If you are interested in muscle building or you are involved in a weight loss program, optimum 100% whey protein is a great supplement to cater to your needs. It is mostly packed in tubs of 2lb (908 grams) and 5lb (2270 grams). Optimum 100% whey protein has a high protein value per serving at around 24 grams for every scoop. Many other protein shakes have far less per scoop, sometimes even less than 15 grams of protein. With 24 grams of protein per scoop, you get the most out of each container.
