in general whey protein is easy to assimilate. Only the purists get the most refined types (bodybuilders).
If yours has lactose then you can take a Lactaid product with it.
Normal protein found in raw foods is complex and requires significant digestion.
I am concerned that kmeb has lost some digestive capability because of atrophy. So predigested whey offers a chance to save her muscles and heart.
Personally I'd mix it into the Ensure that she already takes. Since that is what she is used to. I would not mix it with chicken broth...that has to be nasty tasting.
