As a revision, I'll have a feeding tube for a period of time after surgery. Looking for opinions on a good, high quality whey isolate, flavor unimportant. Thanks!
I have two thought in this. One , I somehow doubt your going to be up to making home made whey, etc. Immediately post op. Also it would seem to me that cod liver oil would be out, as it is a fat, and would therefore be poorly absorbed.I was glad to see this question, as I too am trying to prepare for post RNY to DS revision and one of the things I'm researching is how I might be able to replace some of the conventional pre/post surgery practices.
Has anyone ever considered, or would anyone consider; a "real-food" blendarized feeding tube liquid if the nutrient profile matched or exceeded the lab created blends? I would use ingredients (which I can compile nutrition facts for to illustrate similar nutrition facts) like homemade liquid whey, high vitamin fermented cod liver oil, desiccated beef liver (from organic pastured cows), homemade bone broth and other whole foods?
Just curious - thanks!

Homemade liquid whey may be way too much effort for you immediately post op.I was glad to see this question, as I too am trying to prepare for post RNY to DS revision and one of the things I'm researching is how I might be able to replace some of the conventional pre/post surgery practices.

Are you making your own yogurt?The liquid whey is just strained from my yogurt, and I always have so much I don't know what to do with it. So, I am starting to freeze it now for that time.
