Syntrax Nectar Whey Protein Isolate?



Recommended Posts

Does anyone have an opinion on Syntrax Nectar whey Protein Isolate? I've been drinking that for over a year, and I like it a lot because it's fat-free and carb-free, and one scoop is 90 to 100 calories (depending on what flavor it is). I'm just not sure how it stacks up against Unjury or some of the others out there, and would really like some feedback. I get mine from Amazon.com--free second-day shipping makes it a lot cheaper than even buying it from the local health food store. Oh yeah, and 23g of protein per scoop.

I mis-posted this to another forum, so my apologies if anyone ends up reading this twice. Anyway...opinions, anyone?

I do not like the taste of nectar. I know people rave about it but it gags me and I can smell it. I do like the Cappuccino flavor that is all..

Yeah, I've found that I really like them as well. Lots of fruit flavors, and I love the chocolate and vanilla. And they're readily available, so as far as I'm concerned, unless my doctor tells me I absolutely have to take something else, I'm sticking 'em!

I like most of them (not the vanilla, it's too watery). I don't see any reason why they wouldn't be as good in terms of Protein quality as any of the other whey based shakes.< /p>

I don't like most of the high Protein Drinks. I like the pre-mixed special k and the muscle milk lite, but most of the powders gag me. I like the nectar cherry or tea, but not full strength and not alone. I mix mine with double liquid either crystal lite, sugar free cool aide or regular tea. I also mix the cherry 1/2 scoop in a yogurt fruit smoothie.< /p>

Have you tried using food flavorings, like people use in making frosting or flavored dessert stuff? I've been using those in 'recipes' for the Protein supplements, and mixing in stuff like (don't gag) fresh baby spinach and oat bran or ground flaxseed. Raw carrots work pretty well, too. I know not everybody's quite as, umm...experimental...as me, but I thought I'd at least put the suggestion out there. The baby spinach and the carrots sort of take up some of the sweet factor, and give it some texture, as well.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with the nectar products. It's a good form of Protein, and a nice change from some of the milky flavored ones.

I didn't like the cappuccino flavor but tried the fuzzy navel this morning and it was fine.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
