Unflavored Protein question

I know there are many preferences out there, but I would like some opinions on the LEAST FLAVORED Protein supplements. Im looking for zero taste or easily covered up. I have read many posts and have some ideas, but I would like to get some specific comparisons between the unflavored powders, liquids etc. I go on my pre-op diet December 2nd and finally need to buy my "shakes". Thanks in advance!

    I appreciate the details of your experience. I'm trying to compile everything I read from people and GENEPRO seems to be the "best" so far for lack of flavor. Sent from my SM-J700P using the Bariatr

  • I like the Unjury products, especially the unflavored protein powder and the chicken soup. It's cheapest to buy it in the canisters instead of the individual packets.

@@Christina.Rose I purchased several unflavored Protein powders and tried them pre-op. At that time I thought unjury and Syntrax were the best. Isopure's unflavored variety smelled horrible to me and I could taste it.

Post-op it was a different story...I used Isopure's low-carb chocolate powder a little, but it's got a weird chemical taste that I just don't like. The unflavored Isopure remains my least favorite. I became sensitive to the smell and taste of both Unjury and Syntrax unflavored, I don't like the Unjury chicken broth, either but do like the citrus flavors of Syntrax Nectars.

My hands-down favorite unflavored protein is GENEPRO. I can't smell or taste it in food or drinks and it doesn't bother my stomach. I've been using it for 5 months and am losing very well with it. I recently bought a container of Quest unflavored just to see what it's like and I had to return it to GNC. It was disgusting.

What do you put your Genepro in? I have some and tried it with watered down juice (I can't handle artificial sweeteners) and it made it change a weird color and get really THICK. And it was a large glass. Yuck.

I use it in coffee every morning...I dissolve it in some half and half in the bottom of the cup, with a fork, then add the coffee. If you don't use cream, some lukewarm Water works too.

I also put it in refried Beans, yogurt, soup...anything loose or moist works well. And I tried something new the other day that worked fine: I think you probably know about my incessant struggle with meat, so cheese is a huge source of protein for me. I like the La Tortilla Factory high pro/high fiber/low carb tortillas, so I took one of the small ones they made and made a quesadilla like I usually do, but I tossed the shredded cheese in some Protein Powder before I put it in the tortilla. I used the rest of the scoop in the sour cream + salsa mixture I make to dip it in. That little bit of extra effort got me 20+ grams protein in my quesadilla :)

The secret to Genepro, in my experience, is to mix it into something cold or cool then add it to warm liquids. I add it directly to warm thicker foods like refried beans with no problems. I don't use it in cold liquids at all, since all I drink is water. I'd think you could mix it into lemonade, though, in a shaker bottle then let it sit for a few minutes for the foam to settle.

I use a blender and mix one scoop Protein powder with a cup of ice and 4 oz of raw juice. Usually make my own juice and add kale or spinach to the fruit to reduce the overall carbs. But these days most grocery stores have a good selection of raw juice. It can be pricey but it freezes well so you can stock up when it's on sale. Sometimes, if the fruit is tart, I sweeten it with stevia.

I also like it mixed with 8oz of 1% milk (200 calories,29 grams of protein total)

I like this on days that my protein is low at the end of the day.

But usually I prefer the zero carb version-8oz of unsweetened cashew milk (125 calories 21 grams of protein total).

I can't taste the unflavored protein if I use one scoop in 8oz of liquid.
