THis might have already posted..was just wondering what is an acceptable protein powder to havae while on atkins induction...if any? as long as no carbs or sugar is it ok?

Yep, most have 1 gram of carbs but not from sugar. Not sure if you can get them in the states but in Canada I buy ALL MAX Iso Flex and it is BY FAR the tastiest protein powder I have ever had (and I have tried alot). I really like the chocolate peanut butter one.

Just be very mindful of the carbs. A lot of protein powders are also high carb, so you have to check. And there can also be quite a bit of variance between flavors even in the lower carbs ones, so watch for that as well.

I use Optimum Nutrition - usually the Vanilla Ice Cream (3g/scoop) or Any Whey (unflavored, 1g/scoop). Most of the flavored ones I have seen from them are 3g or less. Vitamin Shoppe usually has the best prices on it if you have one local to you.

Thanks girls!

I use pea protein powder which is zero carb.

Isopure has a zero carb whey powder.

FWIW - going too high on protein will cause the excess to convert to glucose, which will stimulate an insulin release (hopefully small) and possibly kick you out of ketosis. Not a big deal compared to actually eating carbs, but you should be aware of the effect (gluconeogenesis). Try to stay under 1g per kg of bodyweight to be sure - should be safe at 100g or less for your weight.

I buy the whey protein powder at Sprouts in the bulk bin, and it says it is 0 carbs!

Hey - I just noticed you live in Corinth! I live in Flower Mound! When you posted about the whey protein powder, I was wondering if you had a Sprouts. We have one in Flower Mound, which is where I get the whey. It is 8.99 per pound in the bulk bin and 0 carbs!
I use it all the time in the Atkins diet revolution rolls and snack on them like crazy during the day, with butter, for sandwich "bread". They are wonderful! I have tweaked the recipe if you want me to post it.

Sounds interesting, Joyce. I haven't tried adding a protein powder to any of my rev roll recipes and would love to try your recipe.

Howdy, neighbor!

We don't have a sprouts out here, but I totally didn't know there was one over there! Is it over around the 407/2499 shops, or somewhere else? I usually do my groceries at the Tom Thumb on 407 (and sometimes to the Market Street that opened in Lewisville off Denton Tap), so I can add it to my run. I'll have to google it!

Joyce,
I'd like for you to post your version of the rolls.
