Unflavored protein powder?



Recommended Posts

GENEPRO saved my life. I was having trouble keeping anything down after surgery I was down to 250 calories per day, my blood pressure dropped dangerously low too, until I found Genepro which literally saved me from ending up back in the hospital.

What did you put it in?

i personally really like the unjury flavorless Protein. a little spendy, but not too chalky.

the packets are $2.00 but If you buy the canister it's a little over a $1.00 for 21 grams of Protein.

I've used GENEPRO for months, now on my second order (soon to be a third--great stuff!!). I can put it in anything, can't taste it and I know I've hit my Protein goals of the day. No digestive problems at all.

I still use it and mix it every morning with 3oz of Starbucks mocha light Frappucino [emoji6] not sure if this is healthy however when I could barely eat anything and my blood pressure dropped dangerously low this is what kept me going and able to make it through the work day.

I guess Protein is a very personal taste. I haven't found one that truly has no taste and doesn't change the consistency of what you mix it with. I personally find the very good volume to Protein ratio of GENEPRO (one tbl spoon for 30 gram) is what makes a difference. In OJ the strong taste and consistency make it really easy to take every morning. Combined with a Greek yogourt you can start your day with 40 grams of protein without any fuss... :)

Hi! I'm only day 5 post op but have a question... When you make your Protein Drink it's at least 8 oz right? Is this a Meal Replacement for you or a snack in addition to your meals? Confused on how someone said they can take a Greek yogurt and glass of Oj with genpro in morning.. Wouldn't that be too much for stomach?? Thanks for your insight

Hi! I put one scoop of GENEPRO (30 gram protein equiv) in about a quarter cup of OJ. So overall very little volume. I take it almost like a shot glass of alcohol. At first I had to take smaller sips. I also have a standard serving of Greek yogourt and my Multivitamins in the morning with it. Hope that clarifies! :)

Thanks for that, that makes sense. I was thinking you did 8oz of oj.

Gonna try genpro, doing unjury now and I can taste it

      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.
