Isopure.. Thoughts?
I didn't care for the isopure zero/low carb drinks but I do use isopure unflavored powder and mix it into fage yogurt with different flavored sf torani syrups.
I like the not-so-sweet flavor of Isopure Vanilla, I mean it's ok. Not fantastic, but doable. My NUT recommends only using 1 scoop per drink rather than the 2 on the directions as our bodies can only process about 25-30 g of protein at a time. So, a package of it lasts longer.

I didn;t discover them until ~ a year after surgery, when I had to prep for a colonoscopy. Wish I found them sooner. I like the Peach Mango and the green ones, but do not buy them. I still have a boatload of reg protein shakes to use up.
They are less expensive if you buy a case. I get them for my 87 year old mother because ISOPURE has no cholesterol.

They have great nutritional stats. As for taste, I prefer the flavor of the stuff they give you for colonoscopy prep.
