Schmincke 118 Posted March 8, 2014 I think milk is the least expensive Protein liquid. My NUT suggests making double protein milk by adding 1/4 cup powdered skim milk to a cup of skim milk. But if you are lactose intolerant, this would not be helpful. I have not discovered any truly unflavored protein powder but I am enjoying a wide variety of protein smoothie flavors using vanilla whey protein, no-sugar almond milk, and flavoring like powdered coffee, cinnamon, vanilla, 1/4 cup fruit, a piece of banana, vanilla or peppermint or run extract, sugar-free Syrup, etc. Some people (not me) like Unjury chicken broth which is protein enriched. Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bufflehead 6,358 Posted March 9, 2014 Syntrax Unflavored is relatively inexpensive: http://www.amazon.com/Syntrax-Nectar-Medical-Unflavored-1-Pound/dp/B001I1NSUY Keep in mind that as with almost all Protein powders, if you mix it with something hot, you need to use a food thermometer and make sure it is under 140 degrees. Also - unflavored doesn't mean no taste, it just means that no extra flavor such as chocolate or vanilla has been added. It will have its own flavor - easiest to hide the flavor if you mix it with something strong tasting. Another relatively inexpensive unflavored protein powder is Isopure: http://www.amazon.com/Natures-Best-Isopure-Unflavored-3-Pound/dp/B002TG3QPO I haven't tried the Isopure unflavored. I do use the Syntrax and find it is fine as long as I keep the quantities relatively low. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
