Protein powder?

[venomousflowers 56]

Good morning (or afternoon) guy, I am going to buy some Protein powder today and was wondering, what Protein Powder do you use? What is a good recommendation?

I heard whey Protein is good but I know that whey is basically milk and some of us can't tolerate dairy. (I can though).

Hi, I use a brand called Milk shake Bar Protein powder. It is very good, not gritty, no nasty after taste. They have a variety of flavors, my 2 favorites are vanilla Caramel & Rocky Road. They are gluten free. I get mine at Amazon. I've tried others but these are the absolute best.

Can I find it at Walmart or GMC?

Whey in isolate form is optimal though don't stress if the whey is in another form. Focus on low sugar per serving, e.g. 5 grams or less. A good protein powder should have 20-30 grams of protein a serving. Personally, I avoid soy and all collagen Proteins as well as anything with known heavy metal content- thus I usually try to find brands sourced in the USA. A few brands to consider: Terra's whey and Designer whey protein. If avoiding whey, look at Jay Robb. He makes an egg protein.

Sorry, No. I haven't seen it in any retail store. They have a website www.proteinmilkshakebar.com, or phone 1-888-582-2580, they should be able to help you! I hope you get a chance to try it, it's really good!

Hi, Ok I e mailed the company. They said they are exclusive to Amazon right now but expect to be in Whole Foods next year! Hope that helps!

I tried a lot of Protein powders and found that unflavored is the most versatile. I really like Nature's Best Isopure Whey Protein Isolate. You can buy it online and at GNC and Vitamin Shoppe.

If you are looking for a flavored protiein powder, Syntrax makes great stuff.

I wonder if a person can make their own Protein powder?

I was using Premier and Body Fortress (both found in Walmart) before my surgery but I'm 1 week post-op today and my sleeve has not been able to tolerate either one of those. So I am now using nectar and it's great taste just like juice and yu mix it Water. They have it in Vitamin Shoppe and on Amazon

I haven't had surgery yet, but was thinking about doing the Protein shakes before surgery

I found a post that recommended to buy Protein powders with at least 15g of Protein in a single serving and less than 5g of sugar and also fat.

Hope this helps to find the right one!

Premier Protein is excellent! Comes in powder or already made shakes it also comes in strawberry cream vanilla and chocolate.

Oh and I forgot to add that premium Protein is 30 g of protein for 11 ounces and they also make 30 g of protein granola bars
