Protein shakes

I just tried the Unjury shake and i dont like it. It reminds me of the shakes i used when i did the Optifast diet. It leaves a bad taste in your mouth. Can anyone recommend a coupe of others i could try? Sara

  • I like the muscle milk and GNC Lean shakes.. both are good and don't leave that after taste.. Muscle milk is like chocolate milk and Lean shake is good too, both have 20 gms protein... low sugar..

  • Chocolate truffle I also drink it with silk soy milk I love it and I will try other flavors

Bummer.... Unjury is my favorite all the others were AWEFUL to me! I've learned that everyone can suggest a brand and flavor, but it comes down to everyone's taste buds ;) order lots of samples and try them all!!! My fav right now is Nectar's Double stuff cookie yummmmmo

I love Nectar also! What's your fav. Flavor?? Mine right now is Double stuff cookie yummmm

I tried many many shakes and Muscle Milk and Muscle Milk Lite where the only ones I liked...I still drink them too...hope you find something you like :)

There are several good ones available at Vitamin Shoppe:

For just a protein shake, Myofusion is probably one of the best tasting with lots of great flavor options and a solid profile. For more of a meal replacement I like LeanPro8, very good profile with healthy fats. Vanilla, Chocolate, and Strawberry are all very good. I have heard good things about Syntrax Nectars but I have never tried them. Good thing about Vitamin Shoppe, if you do not like it bring it back and they will let you exchange it.

Dont be afraid of fats with protein shakes. They are usually high quality, omega3/6 and/or medium-chained glycerides. You need these especially since many essential vitamins are fat solubile, meaning they are better absorbed when consumed with fats. You do not want sugar, but that is easy to avoid because most have very low sugar content.

I'm not crazy about any of the shakes so I add flavor to them.

Vanilla shake: add a squirt of orange mio for a orange creamcycle taste. Or strawberry mio is good on it as well.

I add frozen berries and a little Trop50 orange juice to the unflavored mixes.

There's a lot you can do to add flavor.
