Any suggestions on good clear protein drinks?



Recommended Posts

There is Pure, which is flavorless if mixed correctly in Crystal Light or broths. You can order it online. Some of the Isopure is yucky, but I was able to drink the Alpine Punch and the Pineapple/Orange one. Not too bad. Some of the Nectars are kinda clear. My doc was OK with me drinking those.

I mixed the Isopure grape frost with lemonade.

I think Isopure is the only option.. are you sure you can't have regular ones? I had Protein shakes with my Clear Liquids, not only isopure.

But yes, put some SF Kool Aid or Crystal lite in it, makes it taste better

I used AMP Wheybolic Extreme 60 from GNC- chocolate is great, vanilla- had to force it. :) I tried the Isopure drinks and couldn't do them. This one gives you 60 grams of Protein, 280 calories in just 12 oz. I spaced mine out throughout the day and had no problems. It helped keep me full. Good Luck!

Is that a "clear liquid" or a shake? I need clear for the first few days.

I use Jillian whey Choc. Protein, 1/2 banana, 1/2 cup 1% milk, 1 big scoop smooth Peanut Butter, ice and Water. i blend mine and it makes one of the best Protein Shakes ever. For you, you will need to keep adding water so it is at the consistency to get down easy. I am out 3 1/2 years. I hated Isopure. No matter how I tried to conjour it it still sucks.

My surgery was yesterday. I am on clear liquid Protein drinks only. I can't have any of that stuff that you add. Protein Shakes are a few days away. When I can it does sound good. Thanks.

I also like the Special K Protein Drinks - 5g's

Unfortunately I never found one I could tolerate, so during my 5 days on clear liquids I got very little Protein. Oh well

Me too. The Isopure was just awful. It had the worst aftertaste I'd ever experienced. So I tried the Biggest Loser protein Water powder and the same problem. I was okay with the Special K protein water powder, but there's only 5g in one packet. Even with that, I could only drink the iced tea flavor. The strawberry kiwi was nasty and also had an aftertaste.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
