My husband and I went shopping yesterday after I left the doctor appointment. We were looking for protein powder but we could only find flavored powder. Would appreciate brands of protein powder and where to find them. TIA.

Hi JV,

You don't say if you have had surgery yet or not? If not, you don't want to stock up on any one protein as your taste buds will be out of whack for awhile. Shop in places that offer you sample packs. Then save names of the ones you like and after surgery try them again and see how they taste. Keep us posted on how you are doing

You will get many different responses but I like Isopure unflavored protein powder.

I second Isopure Unflavored. Least affect on the taste of whatever you put it in.

Mine is unflavored and I get it from GNC. I think it's the only unflavored powder one they have. I blend 1 1/2 scoops with half a banana, three large strawberries, 1/4 cup almond milk and a couple ice cubes.

I also use the GNC brand. Actually I usually get their vanilla cream flavor. Even though it's flavored it's still pretty neutral and I use it in my decaf coffee (Be sure to mix w/warm water first and make sure the coffee is not too hot or it clumps) and things like yogurt, etc.

Can it be added to food. I'm wanting something I can add to food but won't alter the taste

I get unflavored because I get bad reactions to the fake sugar used in protein shakes. I tried it in yogurt and thought it was disgusting. I have not found any other ways I can consume it other than in shakes. Another shake recipe would be 1 1/2 scoops protein powder, 1 tablespoon of peanut butter powder, 1/4 cup Almond milk, a good squirt of agave, and ice.
