Phase1 protein drink recommendatons

I have heard Isopure protein shakes are horrible, but that is what my surgeon's office has recommended for protein the first 2-3 days. Does anyone have any alternative ideas for clear liquid proten drinks?

I LOVE Isopure!

Isopure isn't bad at all as long as you steer clear of the Alpine Punch, lol. No really though, they taste like uncarbonated soda. I would at least try them before. It is nice to get 40 grams of protein in one protein drink.

I tried the isopure clear drinks and could nt stand it. The only protein I ended up getting during the first week, was from the Unjury protein broth. Didn't taste to bad. I tried multiple clear drinks and couldn't stand any of them, even when I tried to dilute it out. So basically during one week post op, I got maybe 30g of protein per day, if that.

I added unflavored Protein powder to chicken broth and beef broth and tea and apple juice and other clear liquids--I couldn't stand the Isopure drinks. Blech!

Thank you Lizzy2150, that's a GREAT idea!!! I bought several Isopures to try them before & I tried the mango peach one and BLEH is an understatement!!! :wacko: It tasted like rotten eggs! I will NOT be trying the others! I will be exchanging them for the some unflavored Protein powder!

THANK YOU AGAIN!

Unflavored protein powder is not flavorless - I wish it was. But it is better than Isopure. :lol:

Isopure is ok, but you should try Labrada or Premier from costco. They have a better taste.

A lot of people here recommend Unjury. Just got it - delicious! And 21 grams protein.

Good luck!
