I received my case of 42g grape protein from dps nutrition yesterday...BUT, I was just wondering, do I just drink the vial or do I mix it with water?!? I couldn't find any instructions on how to drink it! LOL... Holly

hi holly, i just drink mine straight from the vile. it's quick and easy. i usually drink about half of it in the morning, and then the other half in the evening. oh, and i like mine better at room temperature because it isn't as thick. i sort of do it like a shot, and then i "chase" it with my water. i am going to see my surgeon and my nutritionist today (my 3 month, just a little late), and i will double check with them and let you know. i did take the vial with me to the support group meeting with the nutritionist on tuesday night, and he agreed that it was a great quick way to get in protein. have a great groundhog's day! patricia

I just glup 1/2 down at a time. Takes about 2 glups so its pretty quick. You can chase it with something if you want but I don't bother usually. I have read where lots of people mix them in water and stuff and not sure its worth it I mean its over in a couple gulps and isn't that the point of these lolol. I also try not to drink after them for about 30 mins ( 15 at least ) so I don't wash them through my system so fast. I put them in the frig when I first got them and by the time I went to drink them they were so thick they barely came out lol so now I just leave them at room temp. Good luck! Enjoy! Felicia

Hi there - could you please tell me how to order the 42 g grape protein from dps nutrition? Does it taste pretty good? Costly or priced pretty good. Right now I am drinking Pure Protein from Clark's Nutrition CTR 35 gm 8 oz drink. Thanks Karen

Hi Karen, www.dpsnutrition.com They have it in grape, orange and fruit punch. The grape isn't too bad....you drink it so fast that you really don't get a chance to taste it!! It costs $32 for a case (that includes shipping). I just ordered the fruit punch, don't know what it tastes like yet. I don't like orange so I know I wouldn't even consider trying it! Good luck and let me know what you think! Holly

Thank you Holly for the information. I am going to order some and I'll let you know what I think of it. Do you ever use protein bars? The ones I use have 30 gm of protein and only 1 carb but they do have 290 calories. I usually eat 1/2 for lunch and the other half as a snack. I have a 35 gm protein drink for breakfast. It's called Pure Protein and my favorite is chocolate swirl. Have a great day Karen - I just have to get my profile up and running! I just love this board.
