Re: Protein Powder & Thanks

Have you tried Optimum Protein Diet? The vanilla is good and has

very few carbs so it's better for mixing with fruit. The EAS Myoplex

lo carb is good but pricey.

I haven't tried it yet but a lot of people on another board I visit

are using the Grow low carb protein powder and swear by it. Mine has

arrived yet, but I'm eagerly anticpiating it!! You can get it at

www.netrition.com I've also used Designer protein and it mixes

pretty well and is lower in carbs. Another suggestion for mixing

shakes is to use the low carb unsweetened natural soy milk. I can't

remember the name of the brand I use, but there are some that only

have 4-6 grams of carbs per 1 cup. But look carefully! I use 1/2 cup

soy milk and 1/2 cup water and it gives it a little more oomph.
