Nutricost Isolate Whey Protein Powder, Vanilla, 5 pounds

I've been using the Nutricost Whey Protein Isolate (Unflavored) 5LBS for several months now, and it has become a staple in my daily nutrition regimen. The unflavored aspect is perfect for me, as it allows versatility in mixing with various smoothies and recipes without altering their taste.Each serving provides a substantial 30 grams of protein, which supports my muscle recovery and growth effectively. The powder mixes easily with water or milk, leaving no clumps, and has a smooth texture. I appreciate that it's made from grass-fed whey, is non-GMO, and free from artificial additives, aligning with my preference for clean supplements.The 5-pound tub offers great value for money, making it a cost-effective choice for those who consume protein regularly. Additionally, knowing that it's produced in a GMP-compliant, FDA-registered facility gives me confidence in its quality and safety standards.Overall, I highly recommend the Nutricost Whey Protein Isolate to anyone seeking a high-quality, unflavored protein supplement that delivers on both performance and value.

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.

The cookies and cream is the best tasting protein shake I have ever had! After years of drinking chocolate cardboard flavor from optimum nutrition brand protein i decided to do a switch and try a differnt brand and flavor... wow I should have changed years ago. This cookies and cream taste like a dessert/ smoothie. Instead of just chugging to get it down i can now take my time and enjoy! I mix it with almond milk, water, and a few ice.Worth the extra 40 calories to have a tasty protein shake.If you like cookies and cream ice-cream, give this a go! Looking forward to trying another flavor next time!

I’ve tried this in chocolate and vanilla. Both taste great, and I’ve experienced some gains while using them. The protein to calorie ratio is excellent and it’s very affordable. I removed one star for 2 reasons. First, this whey froths up like crazy when blending in my nutribullet. My other whey powders don’t behave like this. It’s annoying getting a stomach full of air and belching for the proceeding 30 minutes after consuming my recovery shake. Second, the sodium content isn’t great. I track everything I eat and was surprised to find my protein powder was one of the most significant contributors to my sodium intake when performing an analysis on my diet. There are alternatives that are sub 200mg per serving.

OK, let me be honest about why I purchased protein powder. I donate plasma twice a week and keeping protein levels high enough so I qualify for that day's donation can be a bit tricky because I go at 6AM. I really don't want to get up and cook breakfast at 4:30AM so I decided to try a protein powder.To continue my honesty, I wanted Isolate powder because I was told it's the fastest digesting. And the Nutricost brand was less expensive and 3rd party tested so I chose it. Deciding on the flavor was difficult because I expected any flavor to taste phoney, be gritty, and not mix easily. Wrong! Wrong! Wrong! It mixes very easily using a chopstick, spoon, or a handheld immersion blender - less than 15 seconds! I ordered Mocha, and though it's more chocolate than coffee flavored, I like it a lot because it's not sickeningly sweet. I mixed1 scoop with 6oz. water and was unexpectedly pleased. Tomorrow I'll try it with milk and maybe mix it with yogurt another day.I am truly surprised at the quality and flavor. I certainly see why it has so many 5 star reviews.

The best powdered protein for me. I don’t like artificial sweeteners or sugar. Mia it with juice, milk, whatever. Great “malt” like taste without the additives.

Love this protein powder. I noticed a difference in size while taking this. However I would take double the recommended dose. It’s totally fine though cause there is so much. Only complaint I have is the price. I wish it was cheaper.
