Isopure vs. Premier Clear?



Recommended Posts

Just a question... I'm trying to buy some Protein Shakes and drinks so I'm ready for after my surgery. Has anyone tried Isopure zero carb and premier clear? Which do you prefer and why?

I drink both. Premier clear taste too sweet so I mix it with Water. It’s good when it’s watered down. Isopure is good depending on the flavors. I love the Isopure zero carb lemonade flavor.

Thanks! Any other flavors you like? I'm not a lemonade person... too tart lol Do they taste weird? Like protein-y? If that makes sense haha

For isopure.. Apple melon, grape & pineapple orange banana were good. The after taste taste more like a yogurty after taste. Lol at least to me. The premier clean doesn’t have that much of an after taste or taste like Protein. Just sweet. Super sweet lol.

I've had the apple melon Isopure, and it was pretty yummy, though kind of intense and I will probably dilute it if I get it again. The green tea with lemon one was okay but not nearly as good, and had a much stronger aftertaste. The only problem with Isopure is the cost, to me. Haven't had the Premier clear.

Thanks everyone! I think I'm going to try both this weekend. I'm a super picky person and I don't like anything that has a weird after taste... I hope I like at least one of them! I don't want to just drink shakes all the time... :64_zipper_mouth:

Okay, so I've tried to Isopure drinks... I almost threw up! YUCK!!! I was going to make popsicles and ice cubes out of them but I can't stand the taste... :65_mask:

On to premier clear!

I haven't tried Isopure, but Premier Clear has a strange consistency to me. Almost slimey or oily.

I thought premier tasted awful!!! Plus they only have one flavor which I didn’t like to begin with. I did try protein20 and love it!

That’s good to hear! They do have an orange flavor on Amazon but I doubt it’s any better. Those milky shakes are always hard for me so I’m hoping to find a better solution

Yuck... I'll probably hate premier too. The Isopure had this really strong/weird after taste... which is disappointing. It was like $5 a bottle too!

Think of it as getting-ready-for-surgery medicine. Hope you don't have to hold your nose while you drink. Have you tried Muscle Milk or one of the other brands? Some have made their own with skim milk and Protein powders, or used almond milk. I have faith you'll find the right answer for YOU[emoji13]

Hey... If you're looking for a tasty Protein Shake my favorites are ensure light vanilla... They are 70 calls per bottle and not thick or chalky like shakes you have to mix yourself. I also like Premier Protein shakes . They come in banana vanilla strawberry chocolate and sunflower. They are about 100 calls or so per bottle and taste great and they cost about 6$ or so in Walmart. They won't make you feel gassy or bloated either. As for waters I don't like fruit favors in my Water but if you do the propel waters they gave me after my surgery were ok. You can also try the muscle milk

Thanks!! I'll have to try ensure! Premier is good and not that expensive. I'm so sick of chocolate Protein shakes! I need to get into other flavors but... i'm not an adventurous eater lol

I love Vitamin Water zero! & propel is good! I'm looking for protein waters though. Have you tried any??

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
