I like accent whey protein powder . It’s about $45 from Amazon and you get overnight delivery . Very clean ingredients and 3rd party tested . I know a lot of people who use optimum nutrition gold tho
I like Ascent brand. They have an unflavored one as well.
I like Ascent, specifically the mocha flavour as it has a bit of caffeine and I usually work out in the morning! It's best with milk (I use oat milk or regular milk depending on meal planning needs)

Ascent protein has a very good chocolate, and vanilla offering. They also dissolve really well so it never feels chalky. I use 3 scoops (25g per scoop) with 12 oz water and it’s still a very good consistency.
Anyone know how Ascent Whey did?
I get it from Costco, seems like a good profile, clean ingredients, and only uses Stevia.
I linked a review but it doesn't mention lead, but from what I've read it's a well respected and reputable company with solid independent test results overall. My Costco stopped carrying the chocolate as well. I liked the chocolate one better but the vanilla gets the job done! I use about two scoops daily, a smoothie and a yogurt bowl as well..
Yeah not sure what there is to dislike compared to other vanilla ones out there. Flavor is more muted and not overly sweet. The chocolate one is good but so is the vanilla.
Ascent protein from Costco is 4lbs for $50. It’s the best quality protein that you will find at that price. ON has fillers and artificial sweeteners I think. Go for Ascent.
And you can get it at Costco, 4 lbs for $50!
Ascent from Costco. 4lbs for $50. (I’ve gotten it for $40 on sale.) You won’t find a better quality protein for the price and quantity. No artificial sweeteners or junk like Optimum Nutrition, which they also have at Costco. It’s mostly isolate but does have a little concentrate, so if you are sensitive to lactose it might not be for you but I like it.
I can’t do whey protein, so I prefer pea protein. Recommend Ascent chocolate
I just picked up 4lbs for 39.00 (chocolate) at Costco. I wish they carried vanilla too!
Ascent goes on sale for $40 a bag periodically. It’s the best chocolate flavor out of all the other offerings I’ve tried from Costco. I haven’t tried it in vanilla though. It’s the most natural tasting compared to ON or Kirkland. I love the vanilla ice cream ON. I buy and use all 3 brands to avoid flavor burn out.
