Thoughts on Protein Powders (Premier, Unjury, etc.)

[ToughButFair 7]

I'm having trouble finding a good Protein Powder. I tried Bariatric Fusion and found it gross (especially the chicken soup). Premier Protein is just way too sweet for me. The Caramel is revolting, and the banana and Cream is drinkable but soooo sweet. Everyone says Unjury is the best. If I don't like Bariatric fusion or Premier Protein will I like Unjury? Am I doomed to find all Protein Shakes undrinkable? Everyone keeps saying how great Premier Protein caramel is and I really find it disgusting.

I just ordered the Unjury sample pack. I wanted to be able to try all the different types without spending a fortune!

Never seen clear. Is it unflavored, or fruit flavored? Do you also find Premier Protein milk-based to be gross?

I use GENEPRO Medical Grade Protein powder. I add a scoop of it to certain foods when I need to get my protein in. There is no taste to it. I mix it first in a small amount of liquid to get the clumps out then I mix it in whatever I put it in.

I liked premiere choc Protein Shakes before surgery and still do. I have one a day. I use Genepro protein powder as a fill in.

I bought my Genepro Medical Grade protein powder on Amazon. It delivered the same day - I was surprised. It comes in a small bag with 30 servings.

I hope that helps.

I hated Bariatric fusion Meal Replacements. This is different?

Yes, it's a completely different product. Mixes very nicely with everything. What didn't you like about Bariatric fusion?

Flavor was very artificial, way too sweet for me. And the consistency was kind of slimy.

I believe we got the right balance when it comes to sweetness.

Protein One isn't slimy - at all.

Try unflavored and mix it into something you really enjoy drinking.

I can't tolerate any of them! They all give me the steadies with the bathroom, which is not good. So I am very short on Protein right now. 😱

I was having a hard time handling Protein and just got the Syntrax Nectar variety pack. You get 17 individual packs, one of each of the flavors they offer. I am loving the fruit flavors (all I have tried so far). They go down smoothly and arent too thick or sweet.

I had trouble getting protein in before but this is working for me. Hope you find what works for you!

Now that I’ve had the surgery I️ can’t tolerate Carmel premier protein by itself. I️ pour half in coffee and try to drink the rest.
