Fairlife Core Power Elite Protein Shake, 42g
A very high-protein ready-to-drink shake that may be useful for higher protein needs, but 42 grams of protein in one bottle may feel heavy for some people.
Why it received this rating
The 42g Core Power Elite shake provides a large amount of protein in one bottle. That may be helpful for some people, but on a GLP-1 medication, a large protein load or thick shake may contribute to fullness, nausea, reflux, or discomfort, especially when appetite is low.
Portion and preparation guidance
Consider starting with half a bottle or splitting it across the day. Sip slowly and avoid using it to force protein when you already feel overly full or nauseated.
