i bought a can of soy protein powder at trader joes last night. i'm thinking that i will use it to make smoothies in the morning (as an addition to the smoothies that are okayed in ph 2). is this ok? there are no carbs in the powder i bought.

Hi kitalyn,


The official answer is that protien powders aren't recommended for SBD, especially as meal replacements.

I just posted this question for the SBD nutritionist at the SBD website, since a search there pulled up no difinitive responses.

thanks for your help! unfortunately, i don't have the can with me at the moment. i'll try to remember to write down the ingredients tonight & bring it with me tomorrow. and, yes i am only using it as an addition to the phase 2 berry smoothie (which i make with soy milk instead of yogurt).
