Clear protein??

I've started "juicing" simply for the huge amount of vitamins and nutrients that I get from it. Does anyone know of a clear and flavorless protein that I could add to my juice?

I'd be interested in the answer to this as well.  All of the "clear/flavorless" proteins I've every tried were neither clear nor flavorless.

Unjury makes one. But are you allowed juice on your plan? Mine forbids it. Too many carbs.

EDITED TO ADD: It is unflavored, but not flavorless as others have indicated.

I haven't had surgery yet. Hoping for September. It's juice, from a juicer from fresh veggies and fruits :)

There is no such thing as flavorless protein.  The are UNFLAVORED protein powders, but that just means they don't have any specific flavor added; it doesn't mean tasteless.

i am not aware of any available clear protein except the already RTD, flavored ones like the Isopure and Cytomax protein waters.  Not sure their flavoring would go with the juice, though.

Just curious... Is your surgeon supportive of juicing?  My surgeon specifically called for limiting juice of any kind because of the high number of calories that often are in juices made with fruit.

Hello,

I haven't had my surgery yet, September if all goes well. I'm juicing, from all natural foods. Fresh veggies and some fruit. Putting them through a juicer, but adding no sugar.

I personally used the Syntrax nectar medical grade unflavored protein. It didnt seem to give much cloudiness to my SF hot cocoa, and it didnt have much flavor. I used it almost every day for the first 2 months. I have a friend who juices everything, and she uses an egg or soy protein powder, not sure what brand. Also you can buy a plant based one from like trader joes or natural food stores.

We were told not to use the plant based protein powders.

I'm on my 2 week pre op diet and was told NOT to juice. Regardless of it being all natural and just fruits and veggies I was told no. Fruits bc of the amount of sugars because you're suppose to eat sugar free everything.
