Are Protein Shakes Okay?
My Crohn's has been in remission for the better part of 8 years. I recently started working out again and would like to put on some bulk. Is it
safe
Safe driving for teens
Safe sex
for me to drink protein shakes or could that trigger flare-up?

That is a good question for your GI dr. I would not start anything like that without asking the dr. And about how much is ok.
I am glad that your chrons is in remission and has been for 8 years. But you will always have it and don't want to do anything to cause a flare-up.
Mine is in remission 2 years now. I did have to have bowel
resection
Eye muscle repair
Large bowel resection
Large bowel resection - series
Prostate removal
Small bowel resection
Small bowel resection - series
. However, I was older than most people when I found out I had chrons.
When you have had bad flareups you really appreciate how good you feel in remission.
Best of luck
