Question:
Whey protein powder (chocolate) makes me nauseous? Unjury Protein good?
The whey protein powder mix (chocolate) mixed in milk makes me nauseated every time I drink it. The IDS fruit flavored protein shot tastes awful. Someone mentioned "Unjury protein powder" in this forum and I googled it. Unjury protein has a website and they sell plain, unflavored powdered protein as well as flavored (strawberry, chocolate) protein. Has anyone else had nausea from the chocolate whey protein? Anyone tried the Unjury protein? How is it? Thank you! — Gina S. (posted on February 28, 2008)

Might be temperature that's bothering you. I'm almost four months out and
I can't do anything cold. What I do for my shake (I only have one a day
for breakfast) is I heat Cappuccino Soy Slender Soy Milk to hot but not
boiling, then separately I mix a little water with a scoop of Body Fortress
Chocolate, then once that's blended I combine them and it's kind of like a
latte. You have to be careful not to overheat the protein or it will lump
up. GNC also makes Designer Whey in fruit flavors. I like the Orange
Mango. It's very light.
Good Luck!

I don't know anything about Unjury. However, there is a protein capsule on
the market called "Capsul-Pro." You can get it at
www.nashuanutrition.com No nausea. No bloating. Good luck!

Unjury Protein Powder is excellent. They have an unflavored variety as
well as a chicken soup flavor and many others. I find their protein to be
higher in protein value and a MUCH BETTER taste than what I bought at GNC
or WalMart.

Hi Gina,
I never could drink whey. I forced it down and often felt milding dumping
or just plain icky feelings. Hated the taste too.I drank Isopure Clear
bottles at 4 dollars a bottle! For two years! That was expensive...I hated
them too but could stomach them the easiest. I noticed someone mentioned
"You are still on protein?" I'm 4 years out and still have to
supplement my daily protein with shakes even at 1300-1600 cal average diet.
At four years out it is essential to get a good 110-170g of protein! and a
good 100 oz of water.
Anyway, I finally found that I can drink a soy/whey blend and it is
actually quite easy on the palate and my belly. It's still got that almost
chalky texture but it's taste is so nice. If you add spices like cinnamon,
orange extract, SF syrups, you can make it taste interesting and different
every day. The one I use I get at Costco by EAS. (I add a scoop to plain
oatmeal to sweeten it)
Just an idea...I hated unjury too...but the plain unjury was cool for
adding to jello and broth for extra protein.

Hi, I am also "STILL" on protein at almost 3 years post op.... I
don't know how you can't be. Anyway I just recently tried these protein
shakes I found at www.bodybuilding.com called BSN dessert protein and i've
tried all the flavors and they are really good. You can get a sample of
all their flavors at their website www.bsnonline.net for $9.99. I also use
the Anywhey protein powder which is also flavorless like the unjury and it
doesn't hardly have any taste you can add it to almost anything. Goodluck.

I only can take injusry. The sell sample packs of all flavors that are
single servings and if you order a stock order to ship once a month they
give you a 15% discount, if you tell them it is a month order that you want
on a certan date each month. www.unjury.com - Really nice people to deal
with.

I drink it everyday, I mix it up with the bullet my favorite kitchen
gadget. Also with the Chocolate I had half of Bananna it's very good.
I get my supplies at the Dr's office I have never had to order online

HI Gina - There is also a protein drink in ISOPURE that is a liquid sold
at GNC. Comes in a 20 oz bottle and comes in several flavors. I like the
grape the best. It has 40 grms of protein and counts as water too. Best

If you can afford Unjury and the shipping and handling charges go 4 it. If
not, there are several others you can try. GNC has Anywhey Tasteless
protein powder. It's not 100% tasteless (more like 95%), but you can put
it in anything and even bake with it later on. It also tastes awesome with
crystal light. There is yet another one that has taste that is really
good. The designer whey also found at GNC. Pomegranite is my fave flavor.
There are like 2 or 3 other flavors. One last choice. (Usually the
cheapest route), I found that if I take my body fortress whey powder
(chocolate or vanilla) and mix it with WATER instead of milk I can tolerate
it much better. I figure that since I will have to do these occasionally
for the rest of my life, the taste is something I will just have to deal
with if I don't have the money for the more expensive stuff. SMALL price
to pay for such a great tool! Good luck and God bless!

I do get nauseaus with certain protein bars, possibly the intake is so much
and so rapid that it makes us nauseaus. Not sure, but when you find out.
Let me know??

Unjury's delicious, but I found it too rich when it was mixed in milk. I
mix it in water and it's much better. The chocolate and chicken soup are
delicious (although you can only have the soup warm, not hot); the vanilla
is OK and I agree with several people who have commented that the
strawberry isn't the best. But the unflavored isn't bad - doesn't leave the
aftertaste some do. I also just tried Boost Glucose Control, and that's
pretty good. I'm lactose intolerant, and these are the only 2 my
nutritionist recommends.

Some mention the Isopure Zero Carb Vanilla -- they also make it in fruit
flavors. They come in 20 ounce bottles and contain 40 grams of protein. I
love them -- buy a case at least once a month. Don't by the orange --
NASTY. I purchase the Grape Frost; Alpine Punch; and Apple Melon. You can
mix these with water.
As my job is a sitting job -- I have to find things that are easy to eat at
my desk -- so I like this drink. I highly recommend it to everyone who
asks and especially for those who find they can't tolerate dairy products.

Gina, I totlly understand. They Whey made me want to throw up... I have
been testing protein shakes out for 2 weeks now... the best on taste wise
by far is BSN Lean Dessert Protein shake Chocolate Fudge Pudding
flavored... its about 83 cents per shake and 20 grams of protein per
shake...

Gina,
I use Unjury and recommend it! I love the texture and the flavor (except
for the strawberry sorbet, gag me!) The chicken is great, the chocolate is
creamy when I add it to skim milk and ice cubes YUM!, vanilla is good this
way too, or blended with frozen fruit for a smoothy. I have added all three
to the mix when I make sugar free pudding, oops, three being the unflavored
also. I would suggest buying the travel packs and trying it.

This is always a matter of personal taste but I am an unjury fan--mostly
chocolate but also like vanilla in the summer to mix with crystal lite. I
have it on auto ship. Julia

Unjury is great it dissolves completely and has high content of protein and
if you use their outo ship porgram you get a discount. Also try this
recipe mix 2 scoops choc protein(I sometime use van and choc) ice, milk
and one spoon of penut butter, this is my fav shake and has almost 50 grams
of protein. you can also make milk ice cubes as well. Good luck
