Carnation Breakfast Essentials High Protein Powder Drink Mix, Rich Milk Choco...

Who can say no to chocolate?? Not I :) Carnation’s High Protein Powder has been a great way for me to boost my morning protein intake and up my chronically low calcium levels at the same time. Who says getting your nutrition has to taste bad? Sweet and just like chocolate milk, this beats out all the other higher protein drinks/powders I’ve tried — mix in a protein shaker and no clumps or chalky feel like other brands. Easy to rip open, you just pour into a glass of milk for the full 18 g of protein or even coffee if you just need a small boost. Being on medication that suppress my appetite plus commonly having lower calcium/vit D, this has been a good way to get in what I need without taking as many extra supplements (of course, always take what your doctor recommends). Will note, it is a bit high in sugar, around 1/5 to 1/4 of the daily value recommended for adults.

I've used these before, years ago and loved the taste. Now that I'm in my 70's and can't eat as much meat as I'd like due to monetary and other considerations, I substitute this product sometimes. It's damned hard to find in the stores, and very expensive if you do. Getting it here, in bulk is an obvious no-brainer. So I stocked up. Should last me several years.

This brings back childhood memories. Great flavor, simple to make. Add a little instant coffee for mocha flavor!

Some days this is all I can get my 11 year old to drink before school. Not a huge breakfast person, but paired with milk shes at least getting some protein before starting her day. I have blended in with fruits when we have the time or shes wanting something different.. but these are quick and easy options on mornings where "food" isnt happening. I have also found that these are good options for myself when doing calorie deficit diet. Sometimes I need something sweet at night. This is a better option than a handful of cookies. And keeps me full till morning.

Great and easy breakfast with vitamins and minals. Plus I get my calcium with milk!

Works

Taste good. Helps in the morning

A tasty, filling breakfast drink. I add a 4 oz frozen extra-strength coffee cube, 10 oz. cold almond milk, and another 4 oz frozen cube -- this one of water. Whiz it all up in the blender. Quick, yummy, plus a good AM protein zap. Sometimes we add 2T powdered peanut butter. That blends in perfectly for additional healthy protein.
