Honest opinion please!

Hi everyone. I'm in the UK and haven't got access to such a wide range of protein shakes as those of you in the US. I've been recommended Syntrax Nectar. Has anyone tried it and what do you think? Thanks xx

  • If you have access to it, i'd say go for it! I have this brand too and it tastes good and mixes well. My husband drinks it more than I do because I'm lazy and drink pre made shakes mostly (premier)

  • Many people get their Syntrax samples from here: http://bjsbariatrics.com/product/synSamplePack.html Might be worth a look to see if they deliver to the UK.

Thank you! Yep I can get it here and I'm tempted to try the chocolate one and add PB2 :-)

That's what we have! Oh pb2 I have that too, never thought about combining the two..

Sounds good!

The fruity drinks from Syntrax are GREAT!!!

I saw it recommended on here somewhere and I'm definitely going to combine. :-)

Thank you. Any in particular that you rate?

I'm also in the UK.. I use myprotein whey protein powder unflavoured £13.99 for a kg and add the PB2 powders to flavour.. Chocolate one is delicious but sometimes, rarely, makes me a little nauseous. The other that is good is cellucor.. I have the vanilla and cinnamon swirl which I use for baking. These are the only ones I could tolerate.. And I'm still not completely a fan of drinking the protein powder, so that's why I'm now eating it!!

Ah, thanks for this. I've just received my pre op diet list via email and I'll be on slim fast for 2 weeks. Joy! I'm getting really excited and I've got until 12th November before my op. How are you getting on? :-)

I really like the Syntrax Iced Tea as it's not too sweet. I tried the sample pack as well, which was a good idea.

I don't think we can get samples in the UK which is a pain :-(
