Question:
This is regarding the Protein supplement that is 25g per sip. Where can I find it?
I have been using Isopure but cannot stand it. Have also tried unjury, can't stand it, I need help before I go bankrupt buying different products. Thanks — Michele65 (posted on February 18, 2008)

I have had the same problem. I have now given up on all protein
supplements. I am drinking 24 oz of skim milk a day and that gives me half
the protein that my doctor wants me to have. Good Luck!

EAS makes a 25gm protein drink premixed called Myoplex. They also make a
powder (which I buy at Costco) which is very well priced, tastes good and
has 27gms protein per serving - available in vanilla and chocolate. I too
have hated most other products.

I don't know anything about a 25g per sip liquid supplement. I do however
know of a protein capsule called "Capsul-Pro." You can get it at
www.nashuanutrition.com Since it's in a capsule, you don't have to worry
about taste issues, and it doesn't make you feel bloated... Good luck!

I haven't heard of a 25g per sip protein. But I don't think I would go with
the Pro-Caps that were just suggested. 3 - 1000 mg capsules only give you
11 grams of Protein. You would need to take 25 capsules throughout the day
to get the 90 grams of Protein my surgeon wants me to get in a day. That's
a lot of pills! But ... that's just my view.
I also have had a lot of trouble finding a protein powder that I can
tolerate the taste of ... and yes, I have a LOT of unused powders just
sitting around. They tasted just fine before surgery. Hopefully they'll
taste good again someday.
I would just say keep trying. Try to find a source where you can get
samples ... www.vitalady.com is one. Best of luck to you and welcome to the
loser's bench! Cindy

Any of these are what I use:
1.) Champion ProScore 100 choco + 8 oz water + ice, blended (hand blender
or Magic Bullet).
2.) Champion Pure Whey Stack choco + 6-8 oz water, shaken.
3.) IDS vanilla-cinnamon + "glop" of DaVinci sugar free caramel
sauce + 8 oz water + ice, blended.
4.) the PWS chco + the van-cin (50/50) in about 10 oz hot water, stirred or
hand blender.
They deliver 30g protein, less than 3g sugar, less than 200 calories, when
made with water.
Lately I've been adding a shake of cinnamon to my hot ones since cinnamon
fights belly fat.
I always put 1 scoop of UpCal D powder in (500mg calcium citrate, 250 IU of
vit D3).

Never heard of it...but I use a soy isolate/whey mix....Like you I could
not get Pure Whey protein down to save my life! YUCK!
The soy/whey mix adds a nicer and easier feeling on my pouch and is lactose
free! Pure Whey Protein makes me dump. (Even 4 year post op!) I get mine at
Costco in Vanilla and even use it to sweeten plain oatmeal with a dry scoop
and a little soy milk.
I never thought I'd find a drink I liked and after 4 years of wasting a ton
of money on so many kinds. This is the only one I absolutely love. Tastes
like a milk shake but not as sweet. I tried the Isopure clear bottles and
they were the only ones I could somewhat stomach, but had to sip on those
slowly and the cost was obscene!
It's by EAS ...Premium Protein (Stage 3 Blend) with 27g Protein which I mix
with soy to add another 7g...(34g per drink) If you don't have Costco...see
if you can order it online.The link below tells you about it and a pic of
the product if you think you might want to try it...It's $30 a bag.

I agree! It is hard to spend all of this money on the protein shake and
then you can't choke them down. I started drinking more milk and what I
have found in the protein drinks is when there is a little less protein,
like the low carb lifestyle slim-fasts (20 grams), I can stomach them
better. I also use Any Whey Protein powder- tasteless- that I bought at
the local nutrition store. It smells funky but tastes OK. Good Luck. I
took the extra unused protein stuff to my surgeons and the nurse gave them
as samples to other per-surgery folk. Good Luck!

CANT DO THEM EITHER THEY ARE GROSS BUT I DID FIND SOME DECENT TASTING BARS
PURE PROTEIN 19 GRAM PROTEIN BARS I BUY THEM AT WALMART

I had problems at first with any flavored protein powders too. I now drink
the body fortress and mix it with water not milk and it is very tolerable.
(You can buy this at walmart, and most grocery stores). I also buy when I
can afford it, Anywhey tasteless protein powder at GNC. They also now
carry a Designer whey that comes in a few flavors. I fell in love with the
pomegranite one. Just hang in there it does get better! Good luck and God
bless!

Michelle - have you checked out www.chike.com?? They were offering FREE
samples of their 5 different protein shakes, banana, strawberry, chocolate,
vanilla & orange cream. I enjoyed my samples & wish i could
afford them. They can be pricy, but in my opinion were VERY yummy.
Have you cheecked out your local GNC? Sometimes they have the Pure Protein
bars that have 25-28 grams of protein per bar. I have recently had the
chocolate peanut butter and the blueberry crumb. I prefer the chocolate
peanut butter, but i got them for an awsome price - 2 or 3 for a dollar -
yes just a dollar. They were going out of date so they clearanced them.
That may also be another alternative for you, checking out the clearance at
GNC.com or at a local store.
Have you checked out the protein count on canned tuna? That may be another
option for you.
I know we all have our preferences for protein, i wish you all the luck in
finding what works best for you.

Nectra protein its great you can get it at the vitamin shoppe. it has
great taste and goes with anything.

Have you tried Designer Whey, Chocolate? That is the only protein powder
drink my pouch will tolerate.
I did today get the ISOPURE Zero Carb/Grape Frost protein drink. It is not
that bad. The 20 oz bottle has 40 proteins and I don't feel like I have to
chase it with another drink like the protein powders.
I hope this helps.

Yes, I had the same problem. I got Nectar (Fuzzy Navel flavor). I mix it
with water and a To Go packet of Crystal Light lemonade. Delicious!
Tastes like orange juice. Good luck! Pat

I haven't heard of anything giving 25g/sip. And I also have had problems
getting used to many powders/drinks. But at Walmart I tried "Pure
Protein" bars having 18/19/20g of protein and they don't taste too
bad. I only consume them when I've gotten tired of natural protein foods
such as canned fish, ham, salmon, etc. the bars are close enough to a
candy bar you can fool yourself.
And Walmart also has a 1lb cannister of "Genisoy Soy Protein
Powder" with no flavor. So I add it to my milk, coffee and sprinkle
it over cereals & fruit. You too may find them palatable.

flavors.
