Best tasting high protein low carb protein drink

i use and love the body by vi shake powder...90 cals in a serving and 13g of kilated(sp) trisorb protein

Nature's Best Isopure in dutch chocolate. I also have an unflavored one and a strawberries and cream. I don't totally love the strawberries and cream one though.

I found one at Sam's club -- 160 cals, 30g of protein and it comes in chocolate and vanilla. I've never had the vanilla ones, but the chocolate have a taste that is ok. Company is Premier Nutrition -- think they have a website.

I've found that the protein powders that are fruit flavored aren't great. Stick with the chocolate and they're usually tolerable or even taste good.

Premier protein shakes from costco i think are the best they have in vanilla and chocolate taste

Promasil protein powder. 90 calories per scoop, 0 sugar, 0 carbs, and 20 grams of protein! I have the soft serve vanilla flavour that I mix with low fat milk and some frozen fruit...a few seconds on my Magic Bullet and it's ready to go...delicious! I also have the Milk Chocolate flavour that I add bananas to, also very good.

What does trisorb do?

they claim its "3 types of patented protein" although im not a expert on that and from seeing your other posts...im not gonna argure nor most likely respond to your next reply

Haven't tried these yet:

but I hope they're good since I ordered a 5# tub of each earlier today.

The best I've found is Optimum Nutrition Solid Gold Whey Protein, mocha cappuccino flavor mixed with hot black coffee. One scoop of powder mixed with 12oz of black coffee has 25g protein, 3g carbs, 1g fat, tastes like a mocha and mixes perfectly.

Lean Active 7 by Nutracore Nutrition. Tastes great, only has 1g fat, 1g sugar, and gives you 30g protein per scoop and 4 g fiber. Has added probiotics to it, CLA, and a really good amount of anti-oxidants. It is my protein I use before bed and is the protein I will use once I start cutting (I use a mass gainer after workouts right now). It is good for after workouts as well as before bed/ anytime throughout the day because it is a blend consisting of: whey isolate, whey concentrate, egg, 2 different casein proteins, and a milk protein.

Needless to say I am a huge fan!!!

I love,love, love Nature's bEst Isopure Zero Carb Creamy Vanilla.

optimum nutrition pro complex. taste great and is epic!! you're welcome

Pro complex + Gold standard casein is even better.

effective? all are equal if they have equal numbers of protein. taste wise..I like vanilla flavored powders and EAS makes a good one.

Gaspari Myofusion (milk chocolate flavor) is the best tasting one I've tried lately. It's also nice and thick so it can stand on its own just mixed with water. I've heard good things about Trutein, so I may be trying that one next.

My old standby is ON Gold Standard Natural Whey. It tastes great, and has no artificial sweeteners. But doesn't mix up as thick. I usually prefer to mix it with something besides water; or if just water, I do a 4 oz "shot".

Sorry love but you are dead wrong!!! All protein is NOT created equal. For example, your EAS protein is concentrate based. Whey concentrate is 80-90% protein per gram whereas whey Isolate is 90-100% protein per gram. If you had an isolate like Lean Whey Revolution or Isolate evolution you would be getting more protein per scoop than EAS (if the scoops were all the same size).

There's also brands like Muscle Milk that is a caseinate based protein. Casein proteins are very slow digesting and are not optimal for post workout because ideally your body needs a fast digesting protein after workouts to help quickly replenish your muscles.

Also any protein that is mixed in a ready to drink container like EAS or Muscle Milk RTD have been baked to keep the consistency the same throughout the shelf life of the container. That's why you have to shake them a couple times and they're good to go. When you bake a protein (or multivitamin for that matter) you end up denaturing the proteins in there and it makes it hard on the body to absorb.
Some proteins are better off being heated as they it makes them more bioavailable, like Eggs for example. But whey proteins should be cold filtered and cold processed. Unless the manufacturer actually lists the filtering process (cross filtered, cold filtered, undenatured, hydrolyzed, etc.) then it is a baked protein. Also if it has a high cholesterol level then it is most likely baked as well. (15+%)

So common proteins that are thought to be good but are actually not:
Muscle Milk, Monster Milk, Syntha 6, Gold Standard
