Ok, I know there are a gazillion threads on protein shakes, but I don't know how to find them on my phone! I'm trying to locate a protein shake that tastes YUMMY! I like EAS soy protein shakes in vanilla, but there are 19 carbs in a serving and too many calories. I just purchased muscle milk protein powder in chocolate, and it tastes NASTY!! :-( I'm going to be throwing it away! I have been looking through reviews on amazon and syntax has great reviews, but so do sooo many others! Plus there is an endless selection of protein powders! Should I just go with the syntrax nectar? What tastes GREAT plus has low carbs? If it matters, I am looking for a chocolate flavor so i can alleviate the cravings lol!

THe muscle milk lite is good but the nectar protein for me is/was the best...

I did not like the muscle milk at all! :-( it was too thick and had a terrible after-taste. I guess the Syntrax is probably my next choice to try. Thanks!

I went to smootie king. Bought the gladiator chocolate mix. Its great and I add whatever fruit or PB2 to it. And its low sugar and garb. Its the only one my nut says I can have. Its 50.00 for a huge container

Syntrax matrix mint cookie- Many people claim it is by far the best protein shake they have ever tried. I agree- Absolutely decadent. Syntrax matrix also has some other chocolate flavors. I mix it with unsweetened almond milk. I look forward to it every day because I enjoy it so much.

What is pb2?

Thanks for the suggestions!

smoothie king gladiator is my go to protein shake. I add a 1/2 t of decaf instant coffee crystals to it for a mochachino. so yummy

What is PB2?

Pb2 is a Peanut Butter powder. Its low Cal fat. It comes plain Pb or chocolate flavor. Both delicious. I buy it from my des office. But ive seen it cheaper on baratric advantage.com

I bought oh yeah strawberry Protein shakes from amazon. I think a 12 pack was $36. It's 14 ounces and 32g of protein and it's 220 calories with 3g of sugar. It really tastes good especially cold. It doesn't taste chalky at all but rather like a healthy milkshake.

I also like Premier Protein shakes from costco

The Syntrax cookie mint one is good too.

Good luck!!

My 3 favorite are Syntax Matrix chocolate, Unjury vanilla, & Unjury unflavored. They meet all the nutritional requirements, mix well hot or cold, in drinks or food, & taste great, not gritty.

I agree with this poster. syntrax mint cookie is my favorite. I have it every morning for Breakfast because it's so dang good!

Question about Syntrax Matrix. I've heard mixed things about it being that it's not straight whey isolate but a mix and we are suppose to have just whey isolate. Any input on that? I've yet to try the matrix but I've heard mint cookie and cookies and cream are delicious and I really want to buy some but I've been unsure because it's not straight isolate.

which one do you use.. matrix 2.0 or 5.0? what's the difference ?

I have tried several. Muscle milk, muscle milk lite, oh yeah, body fortress (wal mart), and a couple others I can't think of right off.

I really like the Body Fortress stuff. I have no issues with it at all. I mix with milk though, not so hot with plain Water unless you mix strong. I have the chocolate and vanilla. Love the chocolate, awesome with some Peanut Butter. I am not even a big vanilla fan but I like this. I mix it with Dannon greek yogurt and it's great. I even throw in some peanuts or cashews to add some Fiber and even extra Protein and it gives it some texture. It's not that expensive and may be worth a try if you have not tried it yet.
