RoadToMe 28 Posted February 20, 2016 What Protein powders or other protein products have you tried that are 100% whey isolate? How did/do you like them? I'm struggling with every protein I try. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daisee68 2,493 Posted February 20, 2016 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. Sent from my HTC One M9 using BariatricPal Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just heard about Syntrax Nectars, I will have to look that up too. I've tried premier but don't really like them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Caroline G 25 Posted February 20, 2016 I love Shakeology. There are lots of superfoods in there and they never put anything artificial in it ever. Sent from my XT1254 using BariatricPal Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JapGirl 229 Posted February 20, 2016 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.

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.

JapGirl 229 Posted February 20, 2016 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cindyw41 761 Posted February 20, 2016 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rln52 136 Posted February 24, 2016 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BobbyD 211 Posted February 24, 2016 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JapGirl 229 Posted February 27, 2016 My nut said that the body can only process about 20-30g of protien at one time. Any more than that is just excess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kindle 8,667 Posted February 27, 2016 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> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
