Unflavored protein powder?



Recommended Posts

I'm thinking of getting some unflavored Protein Powder to put in various foods. Does it change the consistency? Taste? Overall quality? Any help would be appreciated.

Dear, I wish I could lie to you but I'm going to tell you the straight up truth. I've been "gifted" with a few Protein powders for the last few weeks. Not one of them has been flavored. I honestly thought it was a coincidence until I began to try them. They aren't amazing. Or good. They were a stellar disappointment. I mean, all that free Protein powder! Useless! Now I know why they gave me half full containers! :)

When I put some in flavored greek yogurt it changed the texture and had some Gummy clumps. I also put it in apple cinnamon oatmeal. Both the oatmeal and the yogurt had a very distinct protein taste. I think it's something I can overcome and learn to eat, but I don't think I will learn to enjoy it.

Ugh. Thats what I was afraid of. Thanks for the honest answer!! I'll stick to Protein shakes. Sigh.

I bought unflavored Protein powder prior to my surgery and never really used it because it was awful. And I'm pretty much ok with most protein powders. I could NOT do the unflavored though. I tried it in oatmeal, applesauce, greek yogurt, crystal light and I just couldn't stomach it. I ended up tossing it in the trash.

Try mixing the unflavored Protein powder in with 12-16 oz of chicken, beef , or vegetable broth/stock and drink it like you would a shake.........its not the greatest but it is doable

GENEPRO http://www.musclegen.net/ .... this is oderless and tasteless and does not clump. You can add it to hot or cold....or just sprinkle over your food. This stuff is great. One tablespoon equals a scoop of whey and has 30 grams of Protein. It is approved by John Hopkins and has 96% absorbtion. You can also order it from Amazon. I fix Crystal Light Lemonade and add a scoop. i have added it to coffee, oatmeal, salad....etc. I am on my fourth bag......love it! I cannot stand all the other Protein shakes because of the chaulky taste. I understand you can contact the website and they will send you a sample?

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
