Hi, I'm a newbie. I'm having surgery on Wednesday & I need to know the best "tasting" protein powder out there! I want something that I can mix with sweet, like smoothies, & savory, like soups, that doesn't corrupt the taste. Any suggestions???

I use Nectar brand its pretty tasty!!! its from vitamin shoppe

Thanks Jessica! I'll have to try that!

You can get Nectar at Sams Club too a bit cheaper. But I prefer Isopure which you can get at GNC. It has zero carbs and dissolves a lot better then Nectar. Just add a little Crystal Light to it.

I have heard (but not tried) unflavored unjury is pretty good for soups n stuff...chike nut is pretty good for the sweet part...I also mix sugar free carnation instant breakfast with a scoop of chocolate protein...

I have been using Body Fortress Whey Protein Isolate in Vanilla Cream from walmart because of the price and it only has 2 carbs when mixed with water. Add lots of sugar free pudding mix and splenda and it's good. However, the last time I went, they are no longer carrying the Isolate, so I had to get the Body Fortress Whey Protein in Chocolate. Costs less, but has more carbs and it is absolutely revolting. The texture and aftertaste is much much worse than the isolate I was using before. So, my advice for sweet shakes is to go for a brand of whey isolate. Something about it makes it much more palatable (and better for you). HTH

I bought Unjury unflavored, i have mixed it with everything and so far its been easy to mix, doesnt add a bad taste and smoothes really well. Dunno after surgery. I also bought Isopure. It tastes ok.

Pro Max from SEI Pharaceuticals.

I just tried the chocolate and the vanilla. It's actually really good.

Chike Stawberry Burst is the best I've ever tasted and I've tried several to test out.

Syntha 6 Chocolate milkshake is good too. I got mine online but they sell it at gnc.

I use the Nectar brand as well. No Carbs, 100 Calories, and 23g protein. THe Chocolate Truffle is my favorite, but Vanilla is good too :-)

Hi.. I am a newbee as well. My surgery is on Dec. 30th. I am on protien drinks right now- Baressentials. I am so tired of sweet tasting powders. Once surgery is over, I will definitley want something that I can mix into non-sweet foods. I see many post Isopure and Unjury-(unflavored) are there any additional non-sweet one's out there. How about the protien bullets? Looking for greativity in the use of those as well.

Let me recommend something to you. Everyone has different tastes and likes.

Most Protein "mix" manufacturers will send you sample packs. Syntrax, unjury, Chike, etc.....will all send you sample packs. Some charge a fee for each packet and you can pick and choose.....others just make you pay for shipping. This way you can not only sample the different brands....but also the flavors within them.

Then when you find a flavor or two that you love.....you can save money by order a large tub of it.
