Nectar Protein Powder By Syntrax - ?



Recommended Posts

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.

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 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.

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.

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.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
