Hello, Today I bought a protein drink called "CytoGainer". Could anyone tell me how to make it more teasty? It makes me want to vomit so I need to make it little better. Does anyone know what I could add so it gives a better taste? Its a strawbery taste but its really neasty. I was thinking of adding a banna or real strawberrys...does anyone have experiance with this?

Throw some blueberries with icecubes with the powder and milk (cow, soy etc..) in a blender .That should help or you can purchase a different brand. I love Optimum Nutrition's Dutch Chocolate whey as some times i just throw the scoop of powder directly in my mouth dry and chew on it for a fudge like treat (does stick to your teeth that way). They also have Cookie's and Cream, Cookie Dough, Chocolate Chip Mint etc.. so just shop around for whichever brand.......

Hi Jay,

6foot3's suggestion sounds good.
BUT, why are you buying this particular protein drink if it dosent taste good to you ???

There are lots of good ones on the market; some that taste quite good. It a personal thing. Everybodies tastes are different.

Another suggestion, - try mixing it with various fruit juices - (Pure canberry, Pure Blueberry, Orange). Try some experiments - I am sure you will find something that will make it tast better.

I'm buying them to gain some weight so I can bluk up. I did gain some weight (10lb) or pretty close to it. I gained that in few days and no I'm having trouble doing push ups. My body is use to handling 145lb so I have to tune my muscles up now.

Tryed mixing it with a bannana today and worked well. Kills the bad taste.
