AMAZING Protein Powder!

Not sure if anyone has tried "Nectar" Protein Powder, but I decided to give it a try. It comes in many fruit flavors and honestly, it's a nice change because I'm getting sick of chocolate, vanilla, etc. I got "Fuzzy Navel", I mixed it with Water and it tasted like a watered-down orange juice, but it was delicious! It has 23 g. of Protein per scoop, and you can mix it with water, milk, or juice. It really is whey protein that actually tastes great!!

Thanks for your opinion on this. I've been looking for a good one. I've been using Isopure, but every flavor, even the unflavored seems to have a milky aftertaste which is really gross to me, esp when I'm drinking a fruit punch flavor. I know the whey Proteins are taken from milk byproducts, but I thought using the pure isolates were supposed to help take away that milky aftertaste.

So did you detect any of that with the nectar? Where can you buy it?

Hi Kitty, nope, no milky aftertaste with this. And I know exactly what you mean about that gross taste. I make myself drink the shakes because they're high in Protein, but I almost gag on them. And I purchase my products at www.bjsbariatrics.com. I like them because they let you mix and match a case of AchievOne, rather than having to buy an entire case of the same flavor.

Just ordered the cappachino flavor and the apple flavor. I will let you guys know how I like it. I too was getting sick of chocolate - but I do put a little bit of Peanut Butter in mine - that seems to help. It does boost calories but it also increases the Protein and makes it more bearable.

Have you discovered powdered Peanut Butter yet? I orderd some Fitnutz and PB2 to try and they're both great. About 50 calories for a serving vs. 190 for regular. I love adding them to my Protein powder or low fat ice cream. Real peanut better is better but just ends up being too many calories for me.

I will have to try that. I would love to cut the calories.

I usually only use 1tbsp which is about 90 calories but feels like I am getting a real treat - so for a Meal Replacement - it isn't too bad. I generally eat about 300 calories per meal.

Thanks for telling me about it.

Yes, please let me know how you like the Cappuccino nectar. I love the cappucino AchievOne, so I wonder if they're similar in taste.
