Flavor-free protein powders



Recommended Posts

Can you recommend one and name your favorite unflavored Protein Powder?

I don't have a recommendation unfortunately, I just wanted to reply with some information. There is a huge difference between flavor free and unflavored. I never found a Protein powder that was worth having that was also free of some sort of flavor. Unflavored protein powder means just that - nothing added to mask the taste. Flavor free means no taste whatsoever. The only thing that comes to mind in that camp would be genpro which is snake oil and should be trashed. Of course, after their latest lawsuit loss, I don't know if they will be selling it much longer.

The only way to use the unflavored powder is to add it to something with very strong flavors. Any curry Soups would be good, chicken noodle not so much.

That's why I want unflavored - to add to other foods with less Protein. I don't quite get your definition of differences between unflavored vs flavor-free.

Meaning that any unflavored Protein powder will have the taste of the power itself. No vanilla or chocolate to mask the taste.

Flavorless would mean you could add it to something and not know it is there. In my opinion, that doesn't exist.

Hmm you make a great point. I haven’t tried my unflavored powder yet. Got a small amount from Sprouts as it was dirt cheap.

Do you have a Sprouts or health food store near you? Although I haven’t tried mine yet, I found a VERY cheap soy Protein in the bulk section with no flavor... not sure if it’ll be gross like he mentioned, but it’s minus all the chemicals because it’s soy.. although I wouldn’t use too much soy in my diet.. that’s a whole different beast.

      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.
