Chicken Soup

I just tried a packet of the Unjury Chicken Soup flavored protein powder.  I made only warm water, not too hot, just like directed.  It was delicious! I am concerned about the sodium content though, its awful high!

Are there any others out there that dont have as much sodium?

Unjury is the only Chicken soup protein powder I know of. You could use unflavored protein powder and put it into whatever soup you want. Most protein powers you have to make it into a slurry with cold water before you add it to something hot. I use Genepro, I bought it off Amazon, it's the only one I know of that can be mixed directly in hot liquids and you don't have to worry about the temperature. I have even mixed it into tea and coffee. With the weather getting colder the idea of a shake everyday is not appealing. Good Luck!

most every unflavored protein does taste like whey protein. Unflavored just means it isnot chocolate or vanilla or strawberry.

I am going to say it is fairly tasteless.... nothing is 100%. Doesn't have a weird smell either. And yes it is true sodium doesn't seem to be a problem post-op. I use My fitness pal to record my food and it gives you your nutrition breakdown and my daily sodium is always low.

don't know if you are pre op or post op but early on the sodium is not really a concern.

Im pre-op. surgery Nov 12th.  Im going to ask my Dr about it tomorrow.  They do recommend the Unjury powders, so I guess its ok.  Just seemed like a lot of sodium.

you have to look at the whole picture.  The 770 mg of sodium that is in there is just 30% of the daily recommended amount of sodium. The daily recommended amount for sodium is higher than you would think. You could drink 3.5 packs of it a day and not be over the amount of sodium recommended daily. If that was all you ate that day.

I love the genepro unflavored protein! One tablespoon is over 30 grams of protein, only 98 calories and I put it in my afternoon pumpkin spice latte, I honestly cannot tell it is in there. I used the Isopure unflavored before I stumbled across this and it still tasted like whey protein, Genepro is awesome!

I have heard a lot of differing opinions on Genepro and their protein content.  I'm just curous if you've had your labs done since you started using it and if so, was everything good?  It sounds almost too good to be true.
