Read First Before Buy Genuine Sundesa Blender Bottle Protein
i have used Jarrow Brown Rice Protein for the last four years. I use a Genuine Sundesa Blender Bottle 28-oz Wire Wisk Shaker Mixing Ball Protein Water Sports Fitness Bottle and also stir the rice powder to aerate it. This combination of techniques makes it easy to mix; it's a little easier if you make sure the Sundesa ball is already in the shaker, but it will make a good shake even if you forget. My favorite fruit juices are Ocean Spray 100% Juice No Sugar Added Cranberry Juice 64 oz or, if it's out at the grocery store, another Ocean Spray 100% Juice product mixed with Cranberry juice. On other days I use V8 100% Vegetable Juice, Spicy Hot, 11.5-Ounce Cans (Pack of 24). (I usually buy one bottle at the grocery store, rather than order a stock of 24 cans.) To diminish the spiciness, I start with 4 oz. of water and then fill the Sundesa bottle to 16 oz. with V-8 juice. I'm sure that other juices will work, or you can mix a banana and almond milk as a base, if you have a mixer.
To make the mixing smoother, I stir and smooth out the rice protein before I measure it into the juice in the Sundesa bottle. If the listing for Vanilla, below the chocolate that comes up from the link above, doesn't work, the Vanilla flavor of Jarrow's Brown Rice Protein, as Amazon did not have a direct link. Now there is a direct link, as I've shown above.
This is an inexpensive form of protein, currently $11.74 for a container. I have a 1 1/2 tablespoon measuring spoon, and use two of them (or sometimes less) of the rice protein for the 16 ounces of juice. That provides 17 grams of carbohydrates, 15 mg of sodium in the Low Sodium V-8 form, 90 calories, no cholesterol, and 4 1/2 carbs! Also, 2 servings of vegetables in the V-8 Juice form. I buy three canisters of Brown Rice Protein by Jarrow - 1 Pound and they last me two months if I'm using this protein for shakes every day. That's about $36 for 60 shakes, or less than sixty cents a shake, not counting the juice.
A Thorne Research Vanilla Shake for the JJ Virgin Diet, for example, costs $60 for a 30-serving canister, has more calories, and also has a lot of nutritional additions as well as some fruit flavorings in addition to the vanilla flavor. Thorne Research is a trustworthy brand, as is Jarrow.
Basically, if you already have a taste for V-8 or Cranberry Juice, or some other breakfast juice base for a shake, then use Jarrow Brown Rice Protein Vanilla. If you are starting down the nutrition path now, go with the Thorne Research shake.
I love this blender bottle. I use it to mix my proteine shakes every day, WORKS amazing, I suggest if you drink proteine shakes on the go to get one... Love it...
BalasHapusI am on a diet supplemented with protein whey powder, specifically Optimum Nutrition Vanilla Ice Cream. This blender bottle works great at mixing the whey protein, leaving no unpleasant clumps of whey in milk or water, whatever liquid you prefer to mix it in. You don't need a blender, as long as you're not adding fruit or peanut butter!
BalasHapusI have two of these, one for making my pre-workout powder mix and one for my post-workout protein powder. These bottles are great and maintain a tight seal so your liquid doesn't leak when you throw them in your workout bag. They also make a distinctive 'SNAP!' sound when you close the white levered stopper so you can tell that it is closed and secure. Just make sure you push hard enough to make the snap and you should be good to go.
BalasHapusThe whisk ball is nice because it does help mix around all of the powders that I put into them. I'm not sure how well it would work on a thick smoothie, but for liquids of average viscosity these work great.
I bought a blender bottle 5 years ago specifically for post workout drinks. Now that I don't workout as often as I used to, I use the blender bottle as a water bottle 75% of the time. I haven't used a single glass for drinking water for a year now, which is good because it means less dishes to wash. The blender-bottle is extremely durable, I have dropped mine a few times and it still has seals perfectly when I close it. The cap on top is great too, once you close it you can toss the bottle around and never worry about it coming off.
BalasHapusNo matter what you are buying the blender bottle for you won't be disappointed, I think mine will last for at least another 5 years unless I loss it first :)
I use this bottle for my morning shakes I take. When I don't have time to use the blender this is the next best thing!
BalasHapusExcellent product, excellent price, excellent service! Ordering was quick and easy. Product was received as described and quicker than anticipated.

BalasHapusI think this is a fairly simple shaker, but I think it's very effective. Granted, some time forget about the mixing ball, but aside from that, it is a fairly solid shaker. I think this shaker makes a great alternative for likes of Stacker BottleTM Supplement/Protein Powder Dispenser + 'Fit Over Fat' Fitness Shaker 28oz [Bundle]. If anything, it's great if you are looking for a simple way to keep with protein shakes.
BalasHapusGood no frills shaker that gets the work done. Easy to clean, and does not spill. I'd recommend it as a workout companion. Free delivery is awesome.
BalasHapusI use this product almost every day. The whisk ball is awesome and works really well. Even if the water is super cold, it still mixes in whatever powder I put in.
