Has anyone figured out a good way to get the bubble layer out of our protein isolate shakes?



Recommended Posts

Hello friends! Just wondering if there is a good method besides buying a ninja with a vacuum setup. Thank you for your replies.

I guess it's easier to throw out a little Protein in the foam than to have to drink it. Yuck. Thanks.

Pour through a fine mesh strainer?

Fill it up to the top as much as you can before blending and you won't have the foam.

I mix mine in a shaker cup. As long as I put my fairlife milk in first and the powder in second, I don’t get any bubbles or foam. If I put powder first I do get lots of bubbles and foam.

I use Syntrax Nectar

Premake the night before. That stuff will settle and just stir it with a spoon or lightly shake.

Making it the night does nothing but make layers and on top still sits around a 3/4" of foam. I can stir back up, still foams on top.

I'm going to have to try some Syntrax Nectar sometime. I've got around 8 pounds of whey Protein Isolate unflavored powder, so it will be awhile.

Lol I bought a huge 5 pound container of unflavored 2 years ago. Big mistake on my case as I will never use it all.

the bp store here does have sample packs when you are ready to try it.

Yeah shaker cup is the best way to mix If it's still foamy then it's cheap brand.

I've tried many brands the good stuff mixes with out foam.

Thought I was doing good, 2 ingredients; whey Protein Isolate and less than 1% Sunflower lectin to prevent caking.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
