Question:
Best 'un' or 'non' flavored protein powder
I am preparing for my surgery this month and wanting to buy a non/un flavored protein powder. I know none are 100% tasteless, but i wanna get as clsoe as possible. I tried the Designer Whey no flavor in some soup today and it was so gross...I almost gagged and i haven't even had the surgery yet! — hatda (posted on January 8, 2008)

I am allergic to whey (and found out the hard way preparing for my surgery)
so I had to go to a soy protein powder. Good luck in finding something
tasteless. I bought a soy protein unflavored at GNC and I mix it with
Cranberry juice. If I keep stirring as I sip, I can get through it. There
is a Jay Robb protein powder in various flavors that comes in individual
packages. You might try that even though it is flavored, you have a few
different choices. It is available at The Medicine Shoppe. Hope this
helps.

Designer Whey's about the best I've had. Stuff like that works best in
strong flavored items, like spicy foods that mask the taste. One of the
things I lived on right after surgery was fake tomato soup (we can't have
the real one because it's too high in sugar and carbs). Take 4 oz of water
and 4 oz of tomato juice. Mix the protein with a couple of tablespoons of
water until smooth. Heat the juice/water mixture alone almost to boiling
and then use a blender to mix in the protein and some Old Bay Seasoning in.
Garnish with a small amount of parmesan cheese. I had this for dinner
every night I was on liquids. Good Luck!

I woudl think any of the unflavored would be gross! I tried the designers
whey vanilla. I mixed it with milk and it was pretty good. I put a scoop in
my coffee in the am.Just adds a touch of vanilla flavor. Can hardly taste
it. There are plenty of things you can use or eat, you will learn. I am
only 3 weeks post op but eating regular food

It's not tasteless, but Essence Protien Drink, Chocolate Flavor, mixed with
skim milk is not bad at all. I am 5 days post op and am starting my
protein drinks again. This is what I lived on before the surgery. Good
luck!

I use the Anywhey tasteless protein. I get it on www.bariatriceating.con
or www.vitalady.com. I also heard you can get it at GNC. That's the best
i've found. I add to my coffee to make protein lattes. Goodluck, Jeannie

I agree with Ginger---the unjury is the best. I do use the unflavored at
times but prefer the chocolate and occ. their vanilla. They also make a
really good chicken soup with high protein. I have tried their sample and
liked it but haven't ordered it yet. Julia

I have tried over 20 Wheys so far and I have been the happiest with the NOW
100% whey isolate powder. It desolves easily in everything and as of now,
please start with smaller amounts of whey and not a whole scoop to get use
to it. Congratulation on the choices that you have made and good luck. I
am 7 months out and 164 pounds down. good luck again.

You might want to try BeneProtein. You may need to order this online as I
am not sure that you are likely to find it in a local store.
Best wishes.

Hand down Unjury choc is the best. Their unflavored is good as well, but
do not put in anything hot. The protein will become like scramble eggs
over 135 degrees on most products. Contact and order Unjury on the web at
http://www.unjury.com. There a great company and offer a discount if you
order a standard order every month which you can change. I have all their
flavors, but my stock orcer is cor Choc. It is great in Skim Milk.

I agree with Jeannie, Anywhey tasteless protein powder. You can buy it at
GNC and it's cheaper than online and no shipping and handling charges. I
mix it with pretty much anything, especially crystal light and it's good.
I did just try the designer whey pomegranit today also from GNC and boy was
it good! I was amazed. But you only get 10 grams of protein in it vs 17
grams per scoop of the Anywhey. Good luck, God bless and see you on the
losing side!

I have not found a tasteless one yet but my favorite is Syntrax nectar whey
protein (the roadside lemonade with a small amt of added lemon juice is
wonderful!!). I too have a problem not gagging with most of them I tried
but this one is so much better! You might see if they sell samples--not
sure--I got mine at bestpricenutrition.com Good luck!

I prefer AnyWhey Protien. It is the only one that says on the jar that you
can cook with it. you can add it to cold and hot stuff. Allot of protiens
get lumpy if you add it to your morning decaf coffee. This doesn't. I
really like it best.
