Protein is a big focus for me lately, so when a friend from my local weight loss surgery support group recommended Isopure Zero Carb, I decided to pick up a bottle or two and give it a try. She kept going on and on about how good Isopure tasted, so I hit up my local GNC, ignored the employee’s yammering about X products and Z products building muscle and cell mass, and picked up two bottles of Isopure Zero Carb — Alpine Punch and Mango Peach.
The appeal of Isopure Zero Carb is that it has 40g of protein. The downside is that those 40g worth of protein come in a whopping 20 ounce drink. That may not sound like much, but when your stomach isn’t much bigger than a jumbo-sized egg, it is a lot. But nevertheless, I figured I could take a drink with me on the go, or work at one while I was working, and easily drink over half of a day’s worth of protein.
Unfortunately, I’m disappointed with the taste of Isopure Zero Carb. I’m just not that into the flavor. It’s too strong, I guess to mask the underlying taste of the protein — and it doesn’t even mask it that well. I can’t justify spending nearly five bucks a bottle and struggling to consume 20 ounces of fluid in order to get in 40g of protein. I’d much rather eat more meats, snack on more cheeses, and mix up other types of protein shakes that offer 20 to 30 grams worth of protein in just 4 to 6 ounces of liquid.
