Sajijoma 1,324 Posted October 16, 2015 I bought a couple of samples of is Isopure zero carb ready to drink- 2 alpine punch and 2 grape frost. I thought I should just try one for fun so I cracked open the alpine punch after leaving it in the fridge overnight and OMG! I threw up!!!!! ???? I heard there was an aftertaste and I was like "yeah none of this shyte tastes good anyway" but nothing, NOTHING prepared me for this aftertaste! I thought it would be more realistic for post op if I sipped it out of a shot glass(I've played post op surgery awhile now to prepare me not to gulp). At first, when it hit my tongue I was like "eh, that's not to bad" and then swallowed and OMG it was like rotten milk mixed with burnt hair consumed my mouth!!!!! The first sip I gagged and gagged but I thought to myself "ok, it's just because it's new, take a few more and I bet it gets better"(mainly because I have a very sensitive palette and over taste everything) but nooooooo that second sip caused violent retching! I literally threw up everything to the point of dry heaving! It was soooo bad!!! My husband just stared at me like I was in the exorcist or something! That is some nasty stuff! Please someone tell me the Syntrax Nectars are better and I didn't waste all that money buying this stuff! ???? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Elode 8,093 Posted October 16, 2015 @@Sajijoma lol! Th only one I could handle was the apple melon! I thought I'd hate that one because of the melon but it was alright. I like some of the Syntrax ...well Peanut Butter cookie and strawberry mouse. People like the orange one and I bought a tub of it.....wasted! I didn't like it at all.

Bufflehead 6,358 Posted October 16, 2015 I could only handle that stuff if I mixed it 50/50 with G2 or Powerade Zero. They don't call is Isopuke for nothing! I found the Syntrax Nectar flavors much, much better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VSGAnn2014 12,992 Posted October 16, 2015 Isn't it awful?! Honestly, I think only 2-3 people I've ever read about can stand that stuff. I'm 14 months post-op, and I still have a shelf of that s**t. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RyansGirl89 67 Posted October 16, 2015 I have Isopure chocolate and I put just a teaspoon Sugar Free Chocolate pudding mix and it tastes great. I also put GNC 100% whey Protein no flavor in my crystal lite and it doesn't taste at all Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WLSResources/ClothingExch 3,444 Posted October 16, 2015 Please someone tell me the Syntrax Nectars are better and I didn't waste all that money buying this stuff! Elizabeth Regina can tell you anything, but it necessarily will be subjective. Ludwig may think Syntrax is wunderbar, but Vladimir will cry "Nyet!" Finding a product that is palatable is a hit-or-miss affair. Everyone has wasted money in pursuit of a not-loathsome product. The good news is that you won't be consigned to any of them forever. Blow your nose and pull up your socks, woman. WLS isn't for weaklings. Laurie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

justintime 9 Posted October 17, 2015 I love the Isopure ready made drink. I think it is way better than Premier Protein. I really like the grape and lemonade flavors. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
justme29 76 Posted October 17, 2015 I did not like the Orange flavor at all! But I read somewhere that it is random to which flavor people will like and to still try a different one. I love the Apple Melon and the pineapple banana ones. I hope that will stay the same post op! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
