Thinner Protein Powder?



Recommended Posts

Has anyone found a Protein Powder that does not become thick and bulky when mixed with liquid? I use Nitro-Peak which we order from Vitamin World. It tastes good, but when I mix it with 8 oz of skim milk, but it's consistency is very thick. Ideally, I would love to find something that mixes more like the consistency of chocolate milk. Is that just a crazy dream?

Unjury (order at their website) - chocolate splendor. Just like good old choco milk when mixed with skim milk.

I can mix Syntrax Nectar's chocolate with 1/2 Water and 1/2 1% milk and and it's like chocolate milk. Very smooth, Fluid - not heavy. Same with their Cappuccino flavor, which I sometimes add 1/2 cup of Decaf coffee to for a stronger flavor.

unjury mixes really well, too.

Kathy, thanks. I do not like it mixed with Water either. But, I did try adding a little extra Water to the too thick shake and it seemed to do the trick. It was not ideal, but it was better.

The whey Protein isolate from Vitamin World is not thick and it absorbs in your body faster. It tastes great !!

Does it come in a chocolate flavor?

Thanks everyone for your replies. I see that nectar has samples. I think unjury might too. I will see about trying some samples since it is so expensive to be out there experimenting with new powders. Luckily my family likes the ones we have so they won't go to waste if I find something new.

It's best to get the nectar samples straight from Syntrax. Then if you like it Bariatric Choice has the best price I've found.

Both Unjury Protein powders & Syntrax Matrix have the consistency of milk, of high quality whey, taste good, & very filling. Sometimes I add ice w/the milk & make a shake in blender. I love Unjury unflavored mixed in my Soups & mushy foods. Doesn't change the consistency in most things, except applesauce. Can even put both brands in coffees & teas. :)

I love the Syntrax nectar shakes. I have chocolate truffle, Cappuccino, double stuff oreo, and strawberry mouse. I mix it with light soy milk.

On my pre-op diet, I loved the Bariatric Advantage shakes but, dang, they are way too thick now. :( My husband likes them though.

Oh... and I'm one of those folks who don't care the Syntrax fruity drinks. (Lemonade, ice tea, cherry, etc.) I like the creamy ones. I wish I could drink the others as that would open up a whole other line of drinks. I need to order the vanilla bean torte.

Vitacost.com has the Syntrax Nectar about $3 cheaper than BariatricChoice.com. And you can get $10 off your first order with free shipping for orders over $20 if you sign up here. I've had good service with them. :)

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      April Surgery

My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
