Protein shakes, powders

My list of 'no' foods gets longer every day. Been reading about meal replacement drinks & protein powders. The reviews are negative & positive. Many feel they taste bad, others say opposite. Do any fellow Crohns suffers use these products? I am so limited foodwise, I need tolerable protein sources.

  1. I have always had nutritional shakes prescribed (I am in the UK though). I think it's difficult to try and navigate on your own. If you're relying on liquid nutrition, you need constant monitoring for deficiencies etc. So I'd always speak to my IBD team about it before making any changes.
