Question:
What is a good tasteless Protein Drink?
I have terrible gag reflexes and choke on everything? I need something that has little taste and that the consistancy is pretty good. HELP please. This is the part I feer the most, along with taking the Fleets Phoso soda. YUCK — Kristy F. (posted on November 19, 2001)

I totally agree with you on the protein powder's and it was funny that you
compared it to the Fleet's that is the same example I use. I went to
http://www.cvs.com/CVSApp/cvs/index and ordered Casec powder after I heard
it mentioned on this site. It is completely tasteless - I have even heard
some say there pharmacist will order it (mine wouldn't). I sprinkle it on
whatever I am eating (cereal, oatmeal, pudding) and I don't even notice it.
I was in the same boat as you until I got the Casec powder, now it is a
much more pleasant experience. Good Luck!

I feel for you. My surgery date is 12/6 and I haven't found one I could
stomach either. I ordered some Casec powder but haven't received it yet.
I sure hope it works, because I can't take anything else without gagging.
I even tried the Extreme Pure Pro that everyone kept saying tasted like
grape Crystal Light. Now I haven't had Crystal Light in a while, but I'm
pretty sure this doesn't taste like it. Good Luck, and please post here
again if you find anything else that's good

Check out Michelle's www.vitalady.com - she sells samples of all her
protein powders and has advice on how to make them taste good. I don't
LOVE mine, but I sure like it better than stuff I bought locally. I had
half a banana and a pinch of sugar-free Nestle's Quik, whip it up with my
stick blender and it's pretty good.

A friend of mine who recently had surgery said her doctor gave her the name
of one called MFG or something like that. It can be gotten at GNC, I
think. She says it comes in different flavors and is REALLY tasty.

I hope the best for you in finding one. I spent alot of money trying many
out and did settle on Pure Extreme Pro Grape flavored. I only used it for
one month as it cost $120. I never used it afterward for two reasons. 1)
that was the best one flavor wise, and it still made me want to gag. 2)
there was no way I could afford it!!!! I refused to waste anymore money on
protein drinks. I'm glad I refused to. For me (probally not for others)
they were a waste of good money. My protein levels were tested by a blood
test and were at 8.1! My private doctor (not surgeon) told me the protein
level is TO HIGH, and TO GET OFF THE PROTEIN DRINKS NOW! I told her I
was'nt taking them! So evidently I'm doing something right and the drinks
were indeed a waste of money for me. But everyone is different of course.
But I'd rather eat than drink protein any day. ;)

I drink ISOPURE Pure Protein, No Carb from GNC. It comes premixed in glass
bottles. I like the orange as it has very little taste and isn't super
sweet like most of the clear protein drinks. It is $3.50 a bottle and I'm
still looking for another but it is what I use now.
