Elevated uric acid levels. Is it advisable to take Formula 1 shake and Personalized protein powder from herbalife?
Patient: i am herbalife distributor. I have one customer who is having uric acid levels high and she is restricted from protein. Can I suggest her to go for Formula 1 shake (one shake contains 9 gms protein) along with Personalised Protein powder(1 spoon contains 5 gms protein it is a combination of Soy protein isolate & whey protein ). Pl advise Doctor: Hi.   First you have to check how much is the uric acid elevated. If it is pathological it needs to be evaluated for the possible cause. There is no need to completely restrict the protein. She can take her daily requirem Of protein which is 1 gm/kg of body weight. She can take that amount through any means. Please consult her physician before offering her any treatment.Thank you
