I know protein powder preference is a matter of personal taste.  After trying many types, I love Optimum Nutrition (chocolate, vanilla, chocolate malt, rocky road) .  Although I had RNY 6 years ago, I continue to have a scoop in my coffee and then a scoop with almond milk for breakfast.  I recently tried Syntrax Matrix Mint Cookie and loved it so much I bought a 5-pound container.

For those who have tried Syntrax Matrix, Syntrax Nectar and Unjury, what are your personal favorites?  I would like it to mix well, have 20-25 grams protein in a scoop, 100-150 calories, low carb, and not be artificial tasting.  Maybe strawberry or chocolate truffle?  I'd like to order samples from Vitalady.

Thanks!

My favorite is  Syntrax Nectar cappuccino.  I think it's 90 calories, 23 grams of protein, if you mix it in water.  I mix it in milk so it's more protein and calories, of course.  It's delicious.

I also like the Optimum Nutrition caramel toffee fudge.  It's good in some hot decaf coffee.

I like the Syntrax Matrix vs. the Nectar altho the Nectar is an isolate whereas the Maxtrix is a concentrate, and there is some argument that the isolate is better for weight loss. But, it hasn't hindered me and I use Matrix Mint Cookie every day in milk or soy milk. I'm of the opinion that whey protein is whey protein, for the most part. I do like the Nectar cappuccino, but it's not my go-to protein like the other is. I didn't really like much of anything that Unjury offers. Oh, for unflavored protein I do use the Nectar version.

before surgery I loved vanilla, chocolate, mint...Ive tried all Syntrax Matrix, Syntrax Nectar and Unjury and the matrix flavors I tried were too sweet for me, unjury was such a small container and I really didnt care for the flavor. My favorite are the fruit flavored mixes from the nectar line specifically fuzzy navel.

I've never used the fruit flavored one but I'm willing to try.  Silly question but would I mix them with water or yogurt?

 Mint cookie - yummers.

I also love Roadside lemonade and pink grapefruit.
