Unjury....

[StacyD]

What are your thoughts on this product? I've had mix reviews and am wondering at what stage to use the unflavored powder.

I have tried both the chocolate flavors and the chicken soup. I thought they were very good. I've used the chocolate as a stand-alone smoothie and as a mix in.

I used the Unjury protein powder when I first had my gastric band surgery 5 years ago (waiting for op date for a revision). I honestly couldn't tell any major difference in the taste of the vanilla and chocolate in comparison to the much less expensive powders that were available from other companies. I bought one tub of the unflavored protein, thinking that I would be able to "hide" it in other liquids. In my opinion, it was the worst tasting, more HORRIBLE stuff I had ever put in my mouth! Other people may like it, but I certainly didn't. Just remember that unflavored just means that they didn't add any additional flavoring to it (like chocolate flavor, etc). It does NOT mean that it is flavor-less!

I totally relied on Unjury products after my surgery. The chicken broth was great...made me feel like I was having chicken noodle soup without the noodles. The chocolate was tasty. I mixed it with almond milk. I used the unflavored in my soups and honestly did not really taste it. These products helped me achieve my protein goals from the minute I came home from the hospital. No complaints here.

never had to use enough to go buy it only liked the chicken soup got samples from my Dr.

I got samples and didn't like the chicken soup because you couldn't heat it enough. I've used RTD protein mostly and have some Syntrax unflavored, which is fine.

I ordered some Unjury chicken soup samples. I'll let you know what I think when I try it -- planning to give it a go tomorrow.

I've tried the Unjury unflavored powder and the cheese protein powder. Liked them both. I could not have met protein goals postop without the unflavored powder that I mixed in EVERYTHING. The cheese sauce was great with green veggies preop and delicious mixed in tortilla soup base broth and chicken broth post op.

Kindle did you use the unflavored protein right after surgery during your clear protein phase?
Is there really no taste to it?

Thanks so much for your input. We're you able to use it in the clear liquid phase post surgery?

[GraceMom]

Yes, it worked in the clear liquid phase. It is basically broth with protein. I forgot to mention that the cheese sauce gagged me. I so was looking forward to it, but it was a no go for me. I'll have to try it again in a few weeks.

Thanks Grace. I'm definitely going to purchase some then.

I was only on clear liquids for 3 days and in Mexico the whole time, so didn't use it then. I was then on full liquids until day 17 and put it in broth and cream soups as well as mashed potatoes once I got to puréed. The key to it not clumping is to premix it with a little liquid in a blender bottle and then add it to whatever and to not exceed 140 degrees. It is unflavored but does have a whey taste. Most soups will mask the flavor, but I wouldn't add it to crystal light or vitamin water, etc because you would be able to taste it.

I'll take your word on the whey taste - I don't know what whey tastes like lol I have heard though about adding to foods so that is a good hint and thank you for the pre mix idea

Please do - Im curious. I've got a small list going here of things I need to order.
