Tell me about unflavored protein powder?



Recommended Posts

I'm trying to understand what I can add them to.... I am not a milk fan and I only need to be on full liquids for 7 days. Can I add to yogurt? coffee (if so how and yes I'm allowed coffee). How do you add Proteins to savory foods?

I had a really hard time with pre-made Protein shakes in the beginning. (Muscle milk and etc...) So I thought that unflavored powder would be the way to go. I can't remember the name of the one I got, but it was only usable to me in heavily flavored Soups like curry lentil & tomoato. Anything else I put it in made me want to gag.

I recommend UMP vanilla & JavaPRO Protein powders. They go great with fat free milk, yogurt, almond milk, and even Water. After you acclimate to those you can branch out. I still stick to the vanilla for the most part though.

I used unjury unflavroed in Soups and coffee. It does have a taste, almost like a powdered coffee creamer taste, so it works in things that are stronger. Just out of surgery, I added it to broths and about lived on it (couldn't stand sweets or cold after a few days).

One scoop of unflavored Isopure to an iced grande sugar free whatever you like Americano. I also add a dash of half and half but I doubt that makes it or breaks it as far as flavor. It's delicious.

I add it to my oatmeal in the morning. Remember with Protein powder to add it to cooked foods after you have cooked them or it will break down what you need.

Am I weird and am the only one that can taste unflavored Protein powder? I tried adding it to very flavorful things (fruit smoothies) and still taste it. I need to get more Protein in, but I hate the taste of all Protein shakes and powders (I've bought around 6-10 of them).

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
