Protein Shakes?

Any thoughts on Protein Shakes? Good or Bad for NAFL?

If yes, any you can recommend?

It is important to get enough protein. It is best to get it as part of a normal diet if your system can manage it. If not, be careful of the sugar content as that isn't helpful.

I was taking ON (Optimum Nutrition ) WPI (Whey Protein Isolate) and because I am Diabetes 2 I check my glucose , its interesting that ON WPI has 950 and 955 as sweetners but my tests only range in the mid 6,s after consuming this after a meal.

But I changed brands to NOW Foods WPI which has stevia as sweetner , my tests were up in mid 8,s after the same meals.

Its not a real concern but the blood result shows stevia in not low GI.

I used Whey Protein Shakes purchased directly from medical doctor. I developed a lot of burping, flatulence, and acid reflux. yes, I lost weight but the other symptoms were severe enough to require me to undergo two endoscopies and other invasive GERD tests.
