cathyem1 5 Posted September 24, 2013 Hi everyone. I'm in the UK and haven't got access to such a wide range of Protein Shakes as those of you in the US. I've been recommended Syntrax Nectar. Has anyone tried it and what do you think? Thanks xx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
No game 14,437 Posted September 24, 2013 If you have access to it, i'd say go for it! I have this brand too and it tastes good and mixes well. My husband drinks it more than I do because I'm lazy and drink pre made shakes mostly (premier) 1 ProudGrammy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yep I can get it here and I'm tempted to try the chocolate one and add PB2 :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sanks51 214 Posted September 24, 2013 I'm also in the UK.. I use myprotein whey Protein Powder unflavoured £13.99 for a kg and add the PB2 powders to flavour.. chocolate one is delicious but sometimes, rarely, makes me a little nauseous. The other that is good is cellucor.. I have the vanilla and cinnamon swirl which I use for baking. These are the only ones I could tolerate.. And I'm still not completely a fan of drinking the Protein powder, so that's why I'm now eating it!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've just received my pre op diet list via email and I'll be on slim fast for 2 weeks. Joy! I'm getting really excited and I've got until 12th November before my op. How are you getting on? :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sleeved in Seattle 280 Posted September 24, 2013 I really like the Syntrax Iced Tea as it's not too sweet. I tried the sample pack as well, which was a good idea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
