Options like Syntrax Nectar



Recommended Posts

I am looking for other options similar to Syntrax Nectar. I like these because they are lightweight, like drinking a juice or lemonade, perfect over ice for summer. I never was a soda or juice drinker pre-surgery, but the flavors help me get the Water in, with the added bonus of 23g of Protein in a serving!

But it annoys me that you either pay for single use packets or a huge 30 serving "bucket" for $30some dollars. No in between options so you can have different flavors. I bought the bucket of lemonade and halfway through I was tired of it. And even with the Blender Bottle, it always has clumps when you shake and mix it, so for me its a hassle to clean at work, can't just rinse and go.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Another user just posted syntrax's number: 866-333-7403 x 803 where you can get 15 sample packs for 15 bucks plus $2 shipping. Great value!

BJs Bariatrics also sells Syntrax nectar sampler packs - 11 packets (keeps it under the max weight to ship first class) for $14.95 plus $5.12 shipping. It's more expensive than direct from Syntrax, but you get to pick your flavors in any combo you want. (Unless that's changed, that didn't use to be the case with Syntrax - you got one of each).

I'm a Syntrax fan but don't like the ones u mix with Water (strawberry kiwi, Roadside Lemonade, etc). I like the milk ones (my fav is cappucino).

Also, I wish I had known that Syntrax sells it's own samples packs. Got mine 11 ofr $15 from bj's bariatrics.com. Coulda gotten 4 for free! And u can choose all the same or mix them up from like 13 flavors...

I love my Syntrax Nectaur proteins! I mix them with Zero Vitamin Water. The Water comes in many flavors and I use about half the bottle which would be 10 oz. The trick is mixing the Protein powder with a room temperature Vitamin water. I try to do this the night before and put them in the fridge. It works best if the mixed drink can sit for about 5 min. on the counter before being made cold in the fridge. If I am on the run I put ice cubes in it and go. The key is to mix it at room temp. and then put it in the fridge or add ice after waiting 5 min. or so. Or else you will get some clumps.

The flavors I like are Roadside Lemonade, Twisted cherry, grapefruit, carribean cooler, grape, fuzzy peach. The green apple is just a so, so for me but I don't mind it. I like powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury Protein too and it mixes a little better than the Nectaur but doesn't have as many flavor options.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
