If u really want ,then calculate price/protein. Almost all brands have same type digestion.. Or find someone who has govt canteen access...There u can buy in cheap... Look for who is offering more proteins in same price.. Otherwise u can buy unflavoured whey (as it is brand) Cheapest,good digestion,80% protein... I used it and it's really good..
If you don't have problems digesting lactose, whey protein conc. is a good option for you. If you're sensitive to it, WPI is the way to go. If you're on a budget, or are vegan, plant protein is a great alternative. However, it can take a while to adapt to plant protein's grainy texture and taste. Brands that I suggest which are trustworthy and avoid fillers are OWN by Food Pharmer TWT or raw / unflavored whey protein from ; Naturaltein Asitis Nutrabay Muscleblaze Muscle Nectar
asitis raw is budget friendly, twt raw is 10-20% better in packaging,taste (overall product) than asitis PRO tip from an amateur - always buy raw, never flavoured. you can add flavour yourself. what do you think, they gonna add real strawberries or mango? they add flavouring substance which you can add yourself. you can buy them easily. they are added in shakes too
Hey everyone, I’ve tried a bunch of protein powders over the last 5 years and ended up caring more about **cost + practicality** than anything else. Used: * Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard Double Chocolate * The Whole Truth Whey (Unflavoured & Chocolate) * Only What’s Needed Chocolate * Asitis Raw Whey * Amul Whey (Unflavoured sachets) Observations: **Unflavoured whey is just cheaper** Especially The Whole Truth (Unflavoured) and Amul, significantly better value per gram of protein. **Taste (subjective):** * **Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard** → still the best tasting * **The Whole Truth (Unflavoured)** → neutral, easy with water * **Only What’s Needed** → didn’t like the taste much personally * **Asitis Raw Whey** → neutral * **Amul Whey** → okay-ish, works best in smoothies **What worked best for me (instead of flavored whey)** Rather than buying flavoured Whey, I just add flavour at home with every scoop: 1) Cacao powder - Didier and Frank 2) Coffee flavour - any instant coffee This turns out to be much cheaper and the taste can be adjusted as needed. **Cost breakdown:** [Cost breakdown](https://preview.redd.it/ewau24mxxnyg1.png?width=952&format=png&auto=webp&s=c1b015e2f0daf4e18bd1e400c5824e27edc8d530) **TL;DR** Unflavoured whey is cheaper and more flexible. Use cocoa/coffee + stevia instead of paying for flavour. **The Whole Truth** for water, **Amul** for smoothies
Go for a basic whey (TrueBasics / AS-IT-IS / MB Raw) and start with half scoop to see how your body reacts. You don’t need women-specific protein marketing hai mostly Just pick something clean, digestible, and you’ll be sorted.
