I have ordered a few samples from Viatalady, but think I would benefit more from something I can put on my food, in my water or other fluids that is tasteless... any suggestions? Thanks, Sheryl    — Sheryl W. (posted on November 11, 2002)

Our nutritionist was telling us about a product called Proteinex - which was been used in hospitals for years. Two tablespoons of this will give you 15g of protein. No sugars, fats or carbs. It has an orange taste, but the people who tasted it at our support group meeting on Saturday said it went quite well in water. Do a search on Proteinex on your search engine (or wait for the Proteinex ad to appear in the banner ads here - they do advertise on this site)...JR

There is also a product called casec that you can order from your local pharmacy or on cvs.com. You add it to your food and can cook with it, and it's supposed to be tasteless. I am getting a sample from someone in my support group but haven't tried it yet.

I bought many samples from vitalady and have yet to find one I can stand. I ended up buying an unflavored one. Be ware though that the unflavored actually have a milk kind of taste to them. The vitalady told me to be very careful aobut adding the protein to foods that were very hot or the protein will break down. It also will break down if frozen. The unflavored is ok mixed with lukewarm stuff though. I found that it dows clump and is hard to get completely disolved even in the blender. Hope you have better luck finding one that works for you than I have.

ProCel & UpCal D Plus are both ALMOST tasteless. ProCel is protein ONLY, UpCal D is protein + calcium citrate + D.

GNC has a brand of unflavored protein mix. It still has a vitaminy kinda taste and smell but it is good mixed with pudding.
