GNC Protein Powders



Recommended Posts

Hello all,

My wife recently discovered that if you buy any Protein powders at GNC and for some reason do not like them, you can either return them for exchange or get your full money back. I tried a few different ones, and the powder I liked the most is called muscle milk. Hopefully this helps someone.:)

p.s. make sure and check with your local GNC I am not sure if this is a company policy.

I didn't know that. Thanks for the info. I recently bought some Max Protein from there and fortunately I like it. I read about it on Eggface's blog. I got vanilla that way I can rotate different flavors of Crystal Light in it. I'll have to give Muscle Milk a try too.

One that I recently tried and liked from GNC is called Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60, chocolate. It comes in chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, and fruit punch. Right now. it's buy one and get a second half price. The Supreme and Oh Yeah Protein Bars are not bad either.

I tried some shots that had like 42g of Protein and those things were terrible.

Hello All,

Thanks for replying I only tried three different Protein powders and I find the muscle milk in the chocolate flavor good. They have a few different flavors but I have no clue if they are any good. I will look into everyone's suggestions. I really enjoy the shakes with minced ice. As my kids say "Try it you'll like it" :001_smile:

I use a product called Syntha-6. The flavor I get is strawberry Milkshake. Just the smell of the powder makes you melt. I use skim milk to mix with. It actually taste like a milkshake.

I bought their dutch chocolate Isopure I hate it I bought it online but haven't found anywhere where it talkes about their refund policy. I do like their muscle milke and a new one that is all About Time Protein powder.

That's an awesome policy! Check with your local health food stores too... there's one here that will take the stuff back if you don't like it. I got one that's not too bad, but I'll have to see about trying the stuff BlaqBeary posted-- I love strawberry milkshakes!

Hello all once again,

I will look into the strawberry milkshake Blaqbeary posted. I tried the amplified wheybolic extreme 60 that Cknorte, and NC Redneck recommended and I liked it a lot. Maybe more than muscle milk, i'm not sure. Extreme 60 tastes creamier than muscle milk, and I find muscle milk to be more thick and rich. I prefer a lighter tasting drink, so I will probably go with the extreme 60. I also noticed a couple of huge differences between muscle milk and extreme 60. Muscle Milk total fat: 12, protein: 32, extreme 60 total fat: 1, Protein 60. I like extreme 60 when it comes to those stats, but maybe I might need the more fat? not sure? My wife just returned the Protein powders that I didn't like for a full refund, but like teh ericka said make sure you check your local stores policy, and keep the receipt.:001_rolleyes:

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
