Hi folks... I am 12 days out from surgery and using Genepro powder. I am having problems with it clumping. I am only doing 5 oz of broth, tomato soup etc and I mix it in a cup. Any suggestions ?

if the liquid is too hot it will clump up.

I stirred it in at room temperature and then put it in the microwave. But even then, I could only get it so warm before it would clump up. This made it do-able at least. (And I always kept in mind that the liquid stage wouldn't be forever...)

yeah most of those protein powders turn gummy at 140 or above. I usually microwave the food or drink, then use thermometer and add powder once its below 140.

I usually heat 2-3 oz very very very hot and then mix the remaining room temp with the GenePro then mix the 2 no clumping

Yup what he said. You have to get it below 140 or else the protein will begin to clump/gummy up and it won't be all that tasty at that point.

Thank you! I have been having the same problem and trying different things but nothing worked yet. Looking forward to trying this!

You might want to search genpro on this forum. It's a controversial product that may not have as much protein as they claim. Many surgeons (including mine) don't approve it as a protein drink after surgery.
