Chocolate shake powder w/o art. sweeteners?

Recommended Posts

Was so excited to find Right Size smoothie powder at my local grocery because I can't do any of the bigger brands with Splenda, etc. I got the vanilla flavor and it's OK, but a little chalky. Yesterday I needed more and was very excited to find chocolate! Tried it today and it was REALLY good; two hours later - heyyy... :mad: Went back to the label and it has aspartame - not in the ingredients but way down in the proprietary gum blend. Back to the store with it!

 

After double-checking, the vanilla is not artifically sweetened, so I'll try adding cocoa powder to it. I'm a little concerned about it mixing properly but I think I'm more likely to stick to it if it tastes like something I shouldn't be having :rolleyes:

 

Does anyone know of another brand out there that has a naturally sweeted chocolate shake? I can do agave, fructose, etc. but not sucralose or maltitol.

 

This is not a permanent solution; I've just been sick/injured/stressed a lot lately and would like to drop a few pounds before our next cruise...

My wife uses "Slim Body Matrix" from Global Nutrition. It states Aspartame Free, and I don't see any other obvious sweeteners in the ingredients.

 

I use Gold Standard Whey Double Chocolate from GNC/Optimum Nutrition. It doesn't list Aspartame, does list cocoa, but then also says artificially flavored - so I just don't know.

Jay Robb Whey Protein. It comes in vanilla, chocolate, strawberry, pina colada, tropical dreamsicle, and unflavored. No sucralose or aspartame added!

 

I use the Egg White Vanilla and there are 120 calories per 1 scoop and 4 grams carbs. Ingredients listed on the vanilla are egg albumin, xylitol, natural flavor, xanthan gum, lecithin, and stevia. It's delicious!

I mention UNJURY because it was originally meant for cancer patients.

Bariatric patience started using it. Very helpful website/customer

service, with lots of good recipes to make with the protein powders.

They use whey protein isloates instead of whey protein concentrate.

They have a chicken noodle flavor with no sugar, also the unflavored

contains no sugar. The price is right around $20 a container.

I also use NOW sports whey protein isolate unflavored mixed into

my green smoothies..mmmmm! price is decent from Swanson's

Vitamins.
