Special K Protein Water Mix



Recommended Posts

Anyone have any thoughts on these?

Clear liquids phase. I'm traveling to Mexico for my surgery and these seem like an easy option for when I'm traveling. Just need to add them to plain Water to get a little Protein in. My main concern with them is that their #1 ingredient is polydextrose, which is a "fake fiber" I try to avoid because it can cause bloating and other issues. Seems like maybe not such a wise idea right after surgery...

a lot of the commercial Protein supplements (special k, slimfast, ensure etc) are higher in sugar and lower in Protein than your ideal product. i always tell people about herbalife Protein Drink (its a clear drink that comes in a powder). a tub is about $20 and you can order on ebay or Amazon. it comes in orange mango or berry. or get the Premier Protein pre packaged shakes from costco. probably easier to not have to mix something with Mexico Water, now that i think of it.

The Special K K2O stuff I was referencing in the first post has zero sugar. And obviously I won't be mixing anything with Mexico tap water! I was referring to bottled Water. :)

I'll check out the Herbalife option. I can't bring anything premixed with me, because I only plan to bring a carry-on and you can't have any liquids in bottles larger than 3 or 4 oz. if I remember correctly.
