Protein Shots

Hi! Has anyone got any advice on these? I have heard mixed reviews. I hear they are a bit tart and not all that great. Also that they should be cold when you drink them. I just haven't seen too many posts on them. They are 42g for some and 26g for some others. I was thinking it may be good to have on hand early on. I can drink 1/2 or a 1/4 of one at a time to get in the most Protein I can while on the liquid phase. Can anyone share their experience with these.... good or bad.

thanks so much,

I tried the 42g shots and think they are absolutely DISCUSTING !!! It my just be my taste buds but I would rather stick a fork in my eye then drink one of those shots !!! I returned the empty bottles that I drank and they gave me full credit. It tasted like sour/rotten prune juice to me..... yuck !!! Maybe you could just purchase one to see how it tastes, I say this because I know everyone has different tastes.

Yes, try them first because all the reviews I read the majority said they were horrible. But I ordered anyway, I should have tried one first but the company was good enough to refund the entire case. I just stick to my protein shakes, cottage cheese, yogurt and nuts to get my protein.

I agree ughhhhh

Those things are gross!!! And they don't have the protein that we need.... They say 42g but we don't absorb all of because its collagen. My nut gave me one called yes whey. It has 23g of the right protein. It costs the same and tastes just as nasty but if your going to take it anyway might as well take the right one.

You should check out egg whites international its pure protein you can add to any drink.even crystal light...there is no taste and no smell...our support leader told use about this I have been using it pre op...

I have some egg protein which is 100% egg Albumen which I mix into stuff with my Benefiber. tip though for egg based protein: don't heat it unless you actually want it to cook... its powdered egg (but refined) so will cook like egg too.
