100% whey protein isolate



Recommended Posts

I use Precision Engineering whey Protein Isolate and really like it - both the chocolate and the vanilla. To me they don't have that bad Protein taste that I get from Synthrax Nectars (though meany people rave about those). Also have you tried the Premier Protein ready to drink shakes? They are really good.

Thanks! I've never heard of precision engineering protein but will definitely look for it. I just heard about Syntrax Nectars, I will have to look that up too. I've tried premier but don't really like them.

I love Shakeology. There are lots of superfoods in there and they never put anything artificial in it ever.

I like Isopure and GENEPRO. I have to have whey isolate because I'm lactose intolerant. Isopure is really good mixed with almond milk. GENEPRO only comes flavorless.

Isopure - 1 scoop has 110 calories, 3 gram carb, 0 sugars, 25g protien.

Genepro - 1 scoop has 98 calories, 0 carbs, 0 sugars, 30g protien.

Thanks for that info! I've only tried isopure's zero carb clear drinks, I'll have to try the powders. I looked into genepro when I heard people talking about it but it's a blend of Proteins and I don't seem to handle blends very well. At least that's what I think it is that I'm not handling.

It may be lactose intolerance. I know that's common. GENEPRO and Isopure are both okay for dairy issues :) if it's dairy then you may be struggling to process the regular when protien, but whey isolate is safe for people like me

Btw If you want to try the genepro you can order samples :)

I would be careful of GENEPRO.. I haven't found any unbiased research on it. 30 gr of Protein in one TBS seems too good to be true.

I like unjury. I have all the favors. The chicken Soup isn't the best but for a Protein Soup it works. The strawberry is good mixed with lemon crystal light. I Doctor up the vanilla and chocolate with syrups, fruit or PB2. The unflavored is good in recipes :)

Jay Robb is the best in my opinion. I hated the idea of shakes yukky was all I could say to them. This shake got me through the hard times.

I believe I may be spiking my meals with too much Protein. I've been putting 1/2 scoop of GENEPRO Protein powder in my black Beans for good measure. Yesterday my kidneys were hurting a little bit. As I read about possible causes, one was "excess protein". It seems as if your are not active enough and have too much Protein, it is difficult for your kidneys to process the oversupply. I guess I'll be cutting my spiking out. I'm the typical personality type that believes if one is good then 3 or 4 must be a whole lot better.

My nut said that the body can only process about 20-30g of protien at one time. Any more than that is just excess.

Not only is it excess, your body converts excess Protein to glucose, so anything more than 10-20g protein/hour is basically just real expensive sugar Water.< /p>

      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.
