from Alton, IL on 10/8/2008
I've tried ALL the protein powders and liquids, and this is by far the best. Following bariatric surgery, it is necessary to get extra protein. This can be mixed with liquids or semi-solids fairly easily...just don't have the liquid/food too hot or too cold, or it will "clump"...the tase is minimal compared to most of the "yucky" stuff I've tried!

I was pleasantly surprised by this product. So far it is the only thing I have found with no taste and very little if any problems mixing. Some of the mixes have an aftertaste but BeneProtein does not.

I tried mixing this supplement with ALL kinds of liquids and jello/pudding types. I cannot get this stuff down. You can literally smell and taste this in everything and it is close to rancid. I tried and tried and tried, because using the Beneprotein would really be an easy option to get my protein in for the day. I cannot do it, luckily, the only can of this I have is the one the hospital gave me, so needless to say it is going into the trash today. I'll be heading out to look for other protein supplements this weekend.

Being on a liquid diet for 3 weeks requires I use a protein supplement. This mixes easly into soups, yogurt, or anything else I choose to blend to liquid.
When feeling hungry between meals with one of the soups, I just added a second scoop of protein powder and it made the difference.

I use Beneprotein because I'm on dialysis and need the supplement beneprotein provides. I was a little disappointed when the price increased recently, but what hasn't?. I've learned to mix Beneprotein gently in a jar with a lid with warm coffee and it works fine and mixes great that way. I use to have trouble with clots in the mixture until I learned to "Shake, don't stir." It works for me. I shall continuue to use Beneprotein.....It's good stuff!

I recently had Gastric Bypass surgery and found that Beneprotein was a quick and easy way for me to consume my daily requirements of protein. I would highly reccommend it to anyone thinking about Gastric Bypass surgery.

I'm a dialysis patient that require a lot of protein. My protein values have increased after using this product. It is tasteless and can add to anything. Only draw back is to mix it with a drink before adding ice. Mixing with ice causes it to lump and stick to the spoon.

Mixes well with yogurt and/or jello. Easy to increase the protein intake to the post op needs.

I use this as a low calorie Protein supplement immediately following weight lifting. I wanted a low calorie protein, and this one is hard to beat. It does have a few less Grams of Protein per serving than the higher calorie products out there. I mix it with water or non sweetened Cherry Juice and feel it has little or no taste.
from Fairfield, CA on 12/13/2007
Use powder in oatmeal,applesauce, drinks. I need to build up my protein stores.
from Camp verde, AZ on 12/13/2007
suppliment my protien drinks. It is unflavored so that it may be added to anything for additional protien. it is easily assorbed. I would like to see this product carried in your stores.
from Chicago, Illinois on 11/28/2007
The product is mixed in shakes and orange juice.
It is a source of amino acids (protein) which
has resulted in a reduction in foot/ankle edema in a 94 year old male. He was originally prescribed a diuretic to reduce the edema. In just a few days to a week of Beneprotein and Protein Ensure the edema was gone. Even his Cardiologist was surprised.

This product was purchased for my mother who has a feeding tube due to difficulty swallowing solid food. We mix it with Boost or Ensure. She has been steadily regaining her strength. My mother is 91 years old.
from Las Cruces, NM on 9/28/2007
I like Beneprotein powder because it mixes easily, is tasteless, and is full of beneficial protein for gastric by-pass patients. I usually mix it with lo-cal yogurt or milk.
from Kansas City on 9/21/2007
I tke it because I am on Dialysis to keep my protein level up.
from venus, tx on 9/15/2007
My daughter was recently seen for her yearly physical and they started a growth chart. She is at .05% on the wieght for her peers and at .23% on the size for her age peers. The doctor wants her to start eating the carnation breakfast shakes with extra protein hence the purchase of this product that was referred to me by my aunt. We are pleased with the way our daughter enjoys the shakes and we are seeing positive results with the additional protein and more energy.
from Crown Point, IN on 8/17/2007
This product is especially great for dialysis patients whose protein levels are low. It gives them an energy boost, and there is really no taste or after-taste. I mix it with cranberry juice and water, and it's wonderful!!!
from Indiana on 6/21/2007
I use it in Nestle's No Sugar Added Hot Chocolate, I also add Benefiber. I add two scoops and about 1/3 of a scoup of benefiber for a great protien shake. I drink about 3 or 4 of these a day and eat 2 pure protien bars. This helps me get the protien I need. I had the Gastric Bypass Surgery in October of 2006. You need at least 70 grams of protien a day. So this is what I use besides eating meat.
from Minneapolis on 4/6/2007
I have used this quite a bit after having bariatric surgery -- it has really helped me keep my protein levels where my doc/nutritionist want them. It mixes very well with yogurt and pudding. I make my own chai and mix it in, and it tastes just fine. In a pyrex measuring cup, microwave until just under boiling temp: 1c skim milk, 1 decaf black tea bag, 5 whole cardamom seeds, 5 whole cloves, 1 stick cinnamon. Sweeten with 1-2 tsp Splenda. I let that cool, then put it in a Nalgene bottle, add 4-5 ice cubes and 2 scoops of protein, and shake it all up. I have not had good luck mixing Beneprotein with hot foods (it cooks into nasty little lumps), but heard if the food is warm but not boiling, it might work better.
from Iowa City, Iowa on 3/27/2007
The only thing I can mix this with is orange juice, it has too strong of a taste mixed with anything else.
from Lincoln, NE on 3/23/2007
Like the way it is flavorless so it can be added to any type of food or beverage. Dissolves quickly and leaves no clumps.
I recommend this product to my patients, family, & friends. It easily mixes w/ most foods & fluids & works well for those using tube feed support. Comparied to shelf products available in stores it is clearly superior.

Knowing that I need to have a lot of protein in my diet following my bariatric surgery, I bought the 6-can pack of this product. My dietician said that I could add a scoop of it to just about anything and that it wouldn't change the taste of what I added it to and that it would add the extra protein that I need.
Well, you can totally taste it even in small doses and the amount of protein that it actually adds is minimal. I would much rather drink one of the fruity protein supplement drinks that are available and tasty or choke down a chocolate protein drink and get 22 grams of protein in an 8oz portion.
My dietician also said that I could add it to jello or pudding and you would get protein out of those snacks, too. I tried it with the jello and it just separated and solidified on the bottom of the container.
I am hoping that I can return the 5 unopened cans because they will definitely NOT be used.

I was told by the Dr's office that this product was the best around for Bariatric patients. I can't stand the taste, and smell of it. Reminds me of baby formula. I can smell it in my soup, in my drinks, just can't swallow this one.
do not add to a too hot substance as it will curdle. has a taste so does not mex well weith different substances
This product was recommended by our son's dietician as a suppliment for growth while he was on a special Ketogenic Seizure diet. It has been excellent since it mixes easily with his other foods as an enhancement.
Even though product is "unflavored" it does change the taste of the item you mix it in. Simply because the consistency is thickened ever so slightly the tongue interprets the flavor differently, kinda like bland cream.
We are using this supplement for medical reasons to increase the protein intake of our daughter with special needs. Without this our daughter would have little or no protein in her diet at all. It has been a life saver, literally. After our daughter was hospitalized she was given this product and we have been using it ever since. Great product.

I used Beneprotein following my gastric bypass surgery to make sure I was getting enough protein. I mixed 5 scoops with 64 ounces of Crystal Light in a 64 ounce juice bottle. This allowed me to get the protein and liquid I needed at the same time. It was simple and easy to prepare.
