Unflavored protein powder

I tried unflavored protein powder in the hospital. Made my broth taste and smell like dog food. Lord forgive me. Lol I just couldn’t. It was the nestle brand. Beneprotein. Any suggestions for a better unflavored protein?

    I used Isopure unflavored protein powder. Found it on Amazon and Target. I don’t notice a smell or taste at all. Congrats on your surgery & Good luck on finding what works best for you!

    I have this one at home and haven't been able to make good use of it. It reminds too much of infant formula. Early on I tried to put in apple sauce and couldn't handle it. I then used it to make a pro

I enjoy it because I can vary the flavors of my drinks and never get bored with it. I'm in food phase now but I still drink one every day to help ensure I get my protein in for the day.

I mix it with Peanut butter powder, cocoa, stevia or various crystal light packets, SF flavored yogurts, skim milk and ice.

There is an unflavored Protein Powder that I found after following a Keto influencer on Instagram. She has her own brand of keto-friendly Protein and electrolytes found here. https://myadventuretofit.com/products/wheyproteinunflavoredunsweetened

I didn’t taste anything weird when I had it in my broth.

Ok great. Thanks for the suggestion

I then used it to make a protein coffee and it was just rough. I'll likely try to bake with it in some way and see how that goes just so I'm not being wasteful.

LMAO. Oh I understand not wanting to consume something that doesn't taste good. I try to rehome the things that don't work for me, lol. I had bought a bunch of those Crystal Light packets and squeezies and the Starburst stuff since I heard a lot of people have trouble with just plain water. I can't stand the fake sugar taste of them and just could not drink them at all. I gave the whole collection to my cousin who enjoys them. The only one that taste good to me is the True Lemon ones. Thankfully plain ole water is still my best friend.

I've wasted money on funky protein water (Recovery water was no bueno to me), calcium chews in dessert flavors are not tasty to me (fruity girl all the way), too many chewable vitamins, not great ready made shakes etc etc. So I understand completely.

I will continue to pray for all our wallets, lol.

It is very expensive! Be careful purchasing it on Amazon some of those companies do not allow you to return. I learned the hard way or course. Try to find like sample size stuff to try in regular stores first. That’s helps you save too. Thank goodness.

Amen friend! Lol Once the protein2o started to taste a lil funny to me I started to add half a crystal light pack to it and pour it over ice to get it down. Other days I can drink it regular. Protein2o also has one with electrolytes in it and one without but I purchased the regular one from Amazon first. My next one will be the one with electrolytes in it to try it out. I was adding my zero sugar vitamin water to it for a lil bit and that also helps with the extra vitamins and electrolytes that our body needs. Mixing stuff helps me reach my hydration goal all day.

I like the protein shots from the Bariatric Pal store. It has been the only protein supplement I can tolerate.

I personally would check out BulkSupplements.com. I've been using their non flavored whey protein isolate, calcium and a few others. Its the easiest absorbed and metabolized at a reasonable price. It was recommended to me by a few professional body builders I know personally. It truly has no flavor, I put it in several of my meals each day.

Plus, the company promotes the following which I appreciate (hope this helps also if you subscribe you save although you don't have to):
