So as a complete n00b I walked into my local GNC...first time since high school which was 20 years ago...and bought what I was told was a "very clean" Protein. I purchased 16 Isopure bottles with an assortment of flavors.

***These are the nastiest tasting drinks I have ever tasted.***

The aftertaste leaves you wishing death on the makers of Isopure. Sure, 40 grams of Protein and zero carbs sound good….but it sure doesn’t taste good.

Anyone know if you can take unopened product back to GNC?

yes, you should be able to return the unopened product to the store. Any chance you still have your receipt? They'd appreciate that. It's funny because I don't find them that disagreeable. only the apple melon and passion fruit. the others I find quite tolerable (at least pre-op). Sorry you had a bad experience. I do believe that Isopure puts out an unflavored powder that you can add to just about anything. Ask your GNC rep for a good alternative. :)

You might try diluting it with Water. I know, means more liquid! Or adding crystal light powder to the container. It makes it a bit more palatable.

I tried all the flavors and Grape Frost is the only one I can tolerate. I like it actually.

I have tried the grape frost, the banana pineapple & the apple melon & I liked all of them.

It's funny how subjective taste can be. I really haven't found a Protein drink or bar so objectionable that I couldn't finish it, but some are definitely much better than others. Muscle Milk being the prime disgusting example I can think of.

Nice thing about the Isopure Carb Free is you can mix it with Crystal Light and drink it over the course of the day. A nice break from the thicker chocolate and vanilla Proteins.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
