Isopure unflavored protein powder...how do you use it?



Recommended Posts

I bought this stuff thinking I'd just mix it with crystal light to get in more Protein but it's got a funny taste/smell.

How can you use this stuff without having that weird taste?

Could you put in Soups or make your own smoothie with some fruit to cut the taste?

I have it. I don't think it has a taste of smell. I put it in Soup. Applesauce (unsweetened). Crystal light. oatmeal. sugar free pudding. broth. Anything liquid I add some in. Even if it's not a full scoop I always add some.

It's a matter of taste. I like it and add it to pretty much everything. Soups, tea, my yogurt, etc.... If you don't like Ispoure GENEPRO and Syntrax Nectar also make and unflavored version. Remember unflavored doesn't mean flavorless, it just means there's no added flavorings or sugars. Adding stronger flavors to it helps. I add a dash of hot sauce to my soups or a bit of lemon to my tea.

Yeah, Soups and smoothies I can see would be good uses. On the package it says "add to any food" but other than liquid food, what ways can it be used?

I understand unflavored does not mean flavorless, but it shouldn't have an odd, unpleasant flavor either.

I bought the liquid Protein drinks, also by Isopure, and they don't have that aftertaste, but they are pricey, comes out to about $2.50 each on Amazon (for a pack of 24).

Thanks for your comments.

I've added it to egg salad, scrambled eggs, and yogurt. With eggs I use less, no more than half a scoop, sometimes only a quarter scoop. I've also added it to spaghetti sauce.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
