Genpro has changed, anyone try Piping Rock Whey Protein Isolate Powder?



Recommended Posts

The first batch of genpro I received was excellent. Dissolved well, and had these cool little take out bags.

The latest batch, the container was different, and started clotting up in coffee, and the bags were absent.

I found whey Protein Isolate powder at 1/3 the price. Essentially the same stuff based on their claims.

Has anyone tried it?

genpro has had issues, people have been taking them to task on the whole idea of how they say they have 3 times faster absorption and therefore you use 3 times less, which it turns out is not true. As a result they had to reformulate. Theres an article in one of the magazines i was reading at the store a month or so back, for the life of me i cant find online at the moment. nor can i remember which mens health type magazine it was, may have been one of the nutrition mags. i cant remember lol

Would love to hear your feedback after you've tried this. I have been using GENEPRO every morning in my coffee. I couldn't stand powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury so I would hate to buy a can of this and throw it away.

Thanks-

@@swimbikerun - Received it yesterday. No taste, no smell. Blends well with coffee, eggs, yogurt. 25g of protien per scoop at a very good price. It's worth trying out.

@@Memouse -- yes I am, so far, so good. Dissolves well, and no noticeable hair loss nor other problems associated with low Protein levels.

Just bought some of the Piping Rock on Amazon. They had some deals (one of which was a coupon code, the other automatically gave a discount once you had the minimum amount in your cart) if you spend a certain amount of money. I ended up saving quite a bit.

hi all! i am almost to surgery date scheduling in my process and i have been researching Proteins to try. I was initially sold on the GENEPRO but now i little nervous based on these talks of reformulating. i don't mind trying the other but my initial draw to the GENEPRO was the small scoop serving. is this comparable in the piping rock?

@@Mrs_O - Yes, as far as I can tell without scientific testing. I as just explaining that it dissolves the way I expect it should.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      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!
