Syntrax Nectar

[MrsAnders 34]

I've been researching and I'm finding a discrepancy in grams of Protein per serving. The canisters say the same thing but when I compare the labels some have 6grams of protein and others have 25 grams per serving. Is some specially formulated for WLS patients? I was just trying to find the best price. What is the difference? Anyone know?

You're finding a discrepancy between the Syntrax nectar? I've tried all of the Syntrax Nectar flavors and I remember them all having about 23g of protein.

Check the serving size. I think my canisters list the serving size as 1/4 of a scoop with 6g protein...which means 24g for a whole scoop. I don't know why they do it that way...seems weird to me, since I always use a whole scoop & I assume most other folks do, too.

Im loving the Syntrax Nectar in the vanilla Bean Torte. Taste really matters to me so Ill sacrifice a couple of grams of Protein for the taste. 23 or 25, makes no difference to me because to me its still a good amount to get in one meal. I have a shake for Breakfast then I have the rest of the day to make up the rest of my protein grams. We are going on vacation next week and I just picked up a 12 pack of single servings of the Syntrax at Vitamin Shoppe. That way I dont have to worry about getting my morning protein Thinking ahead is the best thing for me.

You know what I'm such a ditz! Lol I just realized the difference. It's bc some bottles say 1/4 scoop. I just seen where it says a whole scoop for 23 grams.

Sorry about that. Lol.

Thanks! Lol I feel like such an idiot! When I went back and looked I noticed that. In my defense I'm on my iPhone and I didn't magnify the whole label at first. Ha ha.

Sorry about that. Lol.

No worries, I had forgotten about that. Like southernsoul, I use an entire scoop for 8oz of Water.

I'm an avid planner so that will be me too! I haven't even met with surgeon yet and I'm already researching all this stuff. I can't sit idle and wait. I have to look up stuff. Lol hopefully this will be a good thing and I will be successful after surgery.

Also, on the Syntrax website you can order a sample pack of flavors. It's 12 packs for $12, plus about $2 shipping. I love the vanilla bean torte & chocolate truffle, but wanted to play around with the fruit flavors before buying a big tub. I had to end up emailing them to get the sample pack, as the phone number went to voice mail, but that might have just been a hitch on that day.

Thanks! Someone else mentioned the sample pack as well. I'm defiantly going to order one of those before buying a big tub.

Look at the differences between serving sizes. 6 gms sounds like 1/4th of the packet of Syntrax which is a fourth of the serving.

Thanks gamergirl! I figured that out after I posted this. Lol

No problem!

I wish I could give you all mine. I have the unflavored, Cookies, chocolate, and vanilla. Post-op I cannot do these. So I have 4 new ones (ran out the week before surgery) and I'm so ticked I just can't throw them away.

Edited: 4 newly opened ones
