Can you mix protein powder with anything?



Recommended Posts

Unflavored, I mean. I'm headed to GNC today to find a good one. But can you mix it into things like chicken salad? Or refrained Beans? Or even crystal light? My surgeon has his patients going home from the hospital on purée/mushy foods and wants us to be able to eat our Protein as soon as possible.

Absolutely! The only caveat is that Protein Powder can't be used in anything that you're heating up to over 140 degrees - the Protein will start to curdle (yuck!).

And also remember that unflavored does not mean "no flavor" It still has the natural flavor of Protein powder it just doesn't have any extra flavors added to it.

What does that taste like? Is it gross?

I have some unflavored from Syntrax which I haven't tried yet. I think it's best if you add it to something that has a good amount of flavor as opposed to something bland. That way, the flavor of the food will mask the Protein taste.

I think they are gross. I can't do the powders. Tried a couple brands of unflavored in many things but between the texture and off putting during an aftertaste I have unused tubs of the stuff! Now I just eat my Protein or drink a pure Protein Shake (35g). Hopefully your taste buds won't be quite as discerning!

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

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. 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! 😞
