Nutricost Isolate Whey Protein Powder, Vanilla, 5 pounds

Nutricost Whey Protein Isolate has been the most cost-effective protein powder that I've used. The vanilla flavor is not too sweet. I can drink it with milk or in a smoothie with other ingredients without it being overpowering. It has a decent consistency, although if you use a blender bottle, you may still get some clumps. It does foam a little bit, but that's been my experience for most powders. I have some digestive issues, and this protein powder has been pretty easy on my stomach. Due to its high protein content, it makes it much easier for me to hit my protein goals when mixed with a high protein milk. It's a great post work out supplement or a good addition to a breakfast smoothie. The 5 lb tub is also great value. It lasts a long time even with regular use, which makes it a cost-effective option compared to many other brands. Overall, this is a solid, no-frills protein powder that delivers good taste, easy mixability, and reliable performance. Definitely a great choice if you want a high-protein, low-fuss supplement. Here is my breakfast smoothie recipe that I use daily to get calories and protein. 1 medium banana 12 oz. high protein ultra-pasteurized milk (Fairlife, Dairygold from Meijer, or Friendly Farms from Aldi) 3/4 cups lactose-free Greek yogurt (Fage) 3 Tbsp. chia seeds (mine from Costco) 2 Tbsp. PB2 pb powder (Amazon) 1 scoop Nutricost Isolate Whey Protein Powder 1 cup frozen spinach (aldi) 1/2 cup frozen blueberries (Costco)

Clean, mixed well, and tastes good like a little like good quality milk. 140 cal for 30g of protein is solid. It's tastes better than Isopure and better price!

Protein powder vanilla taste very easily combines with fruit, milk, pomegranate and water. Any combination is easily digested. Keeps me comfortably satiated without a bloating effect.

I have really liked this vanilla protein powder. I've been trying to get more protein and I ordered this brand's vanilla and chocolate protein isolate. I use a pint mason jar with a metal whisk mixer that drops in to mix them up. The vanilla has a pretty good flavor on its own, but I like to mix it with 4 oz of milk 2-3 oz of a chai spice tea (I make a quart of it and leave it in the fridge), and then water to the 10 oz line. It mixes up very smooth, then add ice and it's a delicious spicy drink. I also like it with a little added p e r o, which is a barley drink that is a coffee substitute. The not sugar in these gives them way more sweetness than I like, and I don't like fake sugar the taste of it, so I have to cut it with something bitter or spicy to make it work for me. But for the money especially this is a great protein shake. I don't think I would buy the chocolate again just because of how sweet it is to me. I've tried cutting it with the coffee substitute and with peppermint but it still is just too sweet for me. I was a little disappointed that they don't blend into hot drinks at all, you just end up with big chunks of stuff. Maybe I did it wrong I don't know but it was a waste of a shake.

This stuff tastes great! it mixes exceptionally well, its got a high protein content per serving and it's cheap to boot! This is seriously the #1 best value protein powder supplement on all of Amazon. No matter what it is that I buy from Amazon, I take my time researching each and every product before I buy it so that I get the best product possible for the most reasonable price possible! Please notice, I did not say cheapest price possible. IF I wanted the cheapest price I would probably end up with crappy product 9/10 times.... but you cannot go wrong with this protein purchase, unless of course you don't like vanilla or no matter what you just don't like protein powder. Some other notes: I have recently been trying to lose some weight and that is infinitely harder without my local gym being open. I am not the type of person who goes on a diet, EVER... I like milkshakes and Icecream way and I mean WAY too much. Like breakfast/lunch/dinner/before bed snack/midnight snack too much.... seriously... I even mix protein powder with my milk shakes... I did give up the milkshake diet in order to decrease the covid-19lbs I put on....SO as part of my keto BHB + apple vinegar 3pill breakfast each morning, I have a triple scoop one of these shakes, with 10oz skim milk, nice and thick is the way to go. It easily tides me over to lunch. probably 3 days a week I will have another 2-3 scoop shake for dinner, and a small light snack before bed (usually yogurt+granola). It has been almost 3 weeks and I'm almost back to my size 33" waist (down from a size 36" stuffed to the brim, probably closer to a 38"). during this time I have had 3 different protein powders. this one was the cheapest of the 3, the only one of the 3 that was not a name brand and happened to be the tastiest as well as the most effective. please notice once again, exercise was not listed in my routine. not that I dont do it (ok, well i dont really), but my job is now pretty much my desktop pc for 10 hours a day....the combo of the keto pills + apple cider vin pill + this protein = weightloss extreme! Definitely worth spending your money on this. and here's a clue for any other guys out there who are trying to lose their own covid-19lbs.... all you need to do to lose the pounds is pack on the protein and dont worry so much about the fats you're consuming, but definitely watch the carbs. I dont eat many carbs as it is, so avoiding them isnt difficult. But if it is for you, i say find a way to (or an amount of) substitute this protein for whatever your bane is. Protein is the key for males to losing weight easily and quickly. it literally drops off. Some days all i have is this shake,... 3 or 4 of them (always a minimum of 2 heaping scoops often 3 heaps). i never mix it with milk more than twice in a day, so if i have 3 or 4, I use water for the last two. This might be bad for me...but whatever, it works. just make sure you drink plenty of water, this stuff makes you thirsty anyway so it shouldnt be a problem. and as a side bonus, doing normal fix-it stuff around the house has like double or triple the effect on muscle growth. my lady couldnt be happier...flat tummy again and spinch-eater's Popeye arms!

Wow! I finally found a great tasting protein powder that mixes easily and doesn’t have a lot of sugar. I will be purchasing this again and again!

Finally, a protein powder that doesn't overpower the flavor of what you mix with it. I like to make fruit shakes with a little spinach, and every protein powder I've tried is so sweet that it overpowers the fruit, so all I taste is the protein powder. This one allows the banana, strawberry, raspberry, or cherry flavors to come through. There is still some sweetness from the protein powder, so its flavor is there, but it mixes well and is not nearly as strong as other powders. I also like that with the isolate formula you get a higher protein content than just regular whey concentrate. Will be buying this again!

This stuff is great. It tastes good, the ingredient list is simple, it dissolves instantly, and it's much more affordable than other brands. While I haven't tried many other brands, I have tried a few, and this one is is the best, although I've only had the vanilla version, to keep it simple. The flavor is simple and mild, but doesn't have a weird artificial aftertaste that lingers like some brands do, which is a good thing to me. The biggest reason that I like it is that it doesn't upset my stomach like many other whey isolates, which is crucial because I have stomach problems (gastroparesis, sensitive stomach, etc.), and I need help maintaining/gaining weight. Even if the flavor is too boring for some people, the price alone is a sufficient reason to get it, in case you are picky. EDIT: I forgot to say that my only complaint is that it's too salty. I understand that salt is important for exercise, but the amount in this is just too much; if someone really needs sodium, they can get it from other sources.
