I've been reading a lot of reviews on the nectar Protein powder. Quite a few flavors and folks seem to like them. Anyone here try them?

I'm thinking about ordering a sample package of them. Some websites sell a 13 flavor pack. From what I'm reading it mixes easily and the fruit ones, like apple remind folks of jolly ranchers and the cherry reminds folks of Kool-aid. Sounds better than some of the powders I've tried.

Did you get any of the flavor packs? I haven't seen them...though I haven't looked lately either...

The bariatric center I'm going to gave me a sample but, I haven't tried it yet. If I like that one, I'm going to order a sample pack of the flavors because it's sort of pricey (what Protein shake isn't really) in the larger containers. Then I'll know which ones I like and don't like. I'll definitely let you know

What Protein shakes have you tried and liked?

I have this and love it. It dissolves instantly and tastes like fruit punch. So far I'm loving Crystal Sky... I will try apple next.

I really like the Vanilla Bean Torte. I mix it with fat free milk, but I've also used the Chocolate and mixed it with Ice and water in a blender. I don't like the lemonade flavor.

Is the vanilla bean..sytrax too?

Yeah they have the normal regular flavor ones too!

I love the mint cookie one

Mybariatricpantry.com sells the sample pack. Everyone has different tastes so I would buy that. I hated the Carribean Cooler (although I LOVE pinapple and coconut), Crystal Sky and some of the others.

So far I like the Lemon Tea. I still have to try the Pink Grapefruit and some others. I have had a rough time finding flavors that I like. The sample pack is the best way to go!

I found the best option for me was unjury (unjury.com) unflavored powder. I mix that in Raspberry Ice Crystal Light and I love it. I also throw that into a stew or chili. Can't even tell!

For chocolate... I love Champion Nutrition's Pure whey Protien Stack. I add a few drops of coconut extract!! YUM. But I can't do chocolate everyday... I really prefer the unflavored from Unjury!

Hope that helps!

I can buy sample sizes of many flavored here at Drug Emporium. I've tried several pre surgery and liked them well enough. Waiting to get past my 2 week clear liquid post surgery stage to try them again.

I bought the Syntax Apple one and I put a scoop in my nalgene with lots of ice and a little dry mix of Wylers (sugar-free, of course) lemonade. This tastes like an apple martini - minus the vodka , but the lemonade makes it sweet and a little tart - just right for me. I can drink the entire nalgene bottle as long as the ice lasts. When it gets warm, it gets a little more difficult so I try to get it all in before the ice melts - 23 g of protein!!

I was using the unjury chicken Soup as a high-protein snack, but burned myself out on it - still like it, but may go back to it in the winter when I'm looking for something warm instead of something cold.

I love the mint cookie one

The mint cookie I don't like so far post op. It makes me neausated. I hope I can drink it soon. It's pricey.

Is the vanilla bean..sytrax too?

Yup

i really like the fuzzy navel nectar. i also have been using the snthrax unflavored and it isn't bad mixed into some things.

Hello all, I had my RNY Feb. 2005. I have used syntex Protein powder for a long time. It mixes so good with just about anything. My favorite is the Vanillia, I put one scoop in the bottom of my coffee cup and then stir. It DOES NOT CLUMP, getting my 23g of protein first thing in the a.m. I have used several of the other flavors also for afternoon snack love the green apple and fuzzy navel. Do a search and if you have a friend local around you order together,*** sometimes you get free shipping if you spend X amount of $.
