Syntrax Nectar

I've been researching and I'm finding a discrepancy in grams of protein per serving. The canisters say the same thing but when I compare the labels some have 6grams of protein and others have 25 grams per serving. Is some specially formulated for WLS patients? I was just trying to find the best price. What is the difference? Anyone know?

No problem!

I wish I could give you all mine. I have the unflavored' date=' Cookies, chocolate, and vanilla. Post-op I cannot do these. So I have 4 new ones (ran out the week before surgery) and I'm so ticked I just can't throw them away.

Edited: 4 newly opened ones[/quote']

I don't like to throw stuff away either. Did they just not agree with you post op?

If theres a Vitamin shoppe near you they have sample packs by the registers & will match their online price of 35.99. -store shelf price is 39.99.

Amazon has slightly cheaper-32-35& free shipping.

I've gone both ways.

If I may make a suggestion on flavors- get the roadside lemonade- its a mild lemon flavor - like watered down lemon Jello. Its great to mix in your fav mio or crystal lights so you go from one flavor to like 6 variations out of one tub.

Fuzzy navel is nice also.

I mix only w/ Water for fruit flavors & 1/2&1/2 water & milk for desert flavors- chocolate' date=' vanilla & Cookies.

The double oreo flavor is so-so, i prefer the vanilla torte w/ a pump of sugar free torani smores syrup from world market.

I didn't realize we had a Vitamin Shoppe but I just searched for one and we do! Ill have to go check them out . Thanks for the flavor ideas. I'm worried that it will be chalky. I don't do well with chalky. Do you find them chalky at all?

I don't like the Nectars - they're too sweet for me. But someone did bring Roadside Lemonade with the Walden Farms 0-everything Strawberry Syrup and some Crystal Light Lemonade in it - AWESOME. Protein, about 35 calories for 8 oz, and tastes good. (just don't let it sit out, or the protein settles)

I'm currently hating Fuzzy Navel. Naturally, because I have a full tub of it. Loving loving mint chocolate chip. Naturally, because I'm running out of it :)

I luuurve the mint chocolate chip and the chike coffee Protein.

I got the sample pack and thought the fruit ones were disgusting. However, I read on their website that they formulated them to be eaten plain, like a pixie stick, and I'm LOVING them like this!

I read that too! As long as you get your Protein I guess. Lol

Is is the Syntrax nectars? Really? I might try that. I'm hating all fuzzy navel maybe I'll eat it that way.

That is so weird!! Eat the powder plain? Sounds fun if you can do it. All the whey just tears up my stomach right now. Maybe in a few more weeks.

My only thing about doing it that way is I bet it doesn't fill you up. I wouldn't think it would anyways.

It's actually helping me with that - I'm 4 weeks out and still on purees and am so sick of drinking at night from all the Water so it's nice to have my evening Protein plain. I actually almost never feel full (or hungry actually) because I'm still mostly liquid.

Ill remember this tip when I experience this. Can't wait to get the ball rolling! Lol

Nope, I ended up lactose intolerant post-op. Never had that problem pre-op so now the whey is a no-go for me.

Can't they be mixed with Water, or does the product its self have lactose? I know that bites. I'm sorry! :(

I mixed mine with water and even almond milk pre-op. But the type of protein is whey and since that's what it is made of, I just can't have it.
