Since starting a GLP-1 three weeks ago, I’ve had to concentrate on getting enough protein. I try to have 30 grams of protein by 9 am. This can be a challenge. One way to do this is to have a protein shake. If I don’t have time to mix one up, I like to grab a bottle or can of already made shake. But, which is my favorite? I decided to get as many shakes as I can for a taste test. I’m going to try two, write my review on them. Then when I have finally made my way through all of them, I will do a summary. To help compare apples to apples, I am sticking with all chocolate flavors.
First up is the Oikos Protein Shake. I love Oikos yogurt, so I have high hopes for this one. With 30 grams of protein, 180 calories, and only 1 gram of sugar, this shake helped me hit my 30 by 9 am. This had a great chocolate taste but was not a creamy experience. For 10 minutes after finishing it, there was a weird aftertaste in my mouth. Passable but not my favorite. 2.5 out of 5.
The second shake I tried was the Nutri Chocolate Milk Shake. This one has 30 grams of protein and 1 g sugar, just like the Oikos but it has 30 less calories. This one was nice and creamy and the chocolate taste was so good. I didn’t get any aftertaste. I will probably try more of this brand. 4 out of 5.
I believe I have 7 more shakes to try. Stay tuned for more chocolate protein shake reviews.
If you have any taste test suggestions, please let me know in the comments.
Thanks for reading.
