Body Fortress 100% Whey, Premium Protein Powder chocolate. Pretty good to me. And it mixes well.
I just get the body fortress brand whey protein in vanilla 🤷♂️ or do you mean foods? Chicken, beef, fish.
i’m a vegetarian too, and body fortress has been the best protein powder for me so far. Aside from the fact that it’s processed on the same machines as some non vegetarian stuff, that doesn’t mean it’s in the powder too. There is some artificial flavoring but it’s pretty good.
Walmart body fortress is your best bet
Yes, but look up different brands specifically for lead content. We learned recently that a lot of powders have high amounts of lead. I use Body Fortress which has been found to have no detectable lead content, and is cheap and widely available. Doesn't taste too bad either. Don't be afraid of carbs for weight gain. Eat more pasta. You should start routinely lifting weights, for long term health as well as weight and strength gain. Remember to always talk to your doctor and/or a nutrition expert, Reddit it not a reliable source of advice.
I think a lot of people use whey. And that's half the issue. I accidentally bought Body Fortress "whey" protein, and it was... less than stellar. The vanilla base I use is Body Fortress ISOLATE protein. Which has smaller particles and creates a delicious and smooth end-product. The "vanilla ice cream" recipe I use is 1 scoop IPP, 1 tbsp cheesecake pudding, and fill with 1% milk. It tastes like vanilla soft serve. It takes mix-ins like chopped chocolate chips very well and is the base i use for S'mores ice cream. Those 3 things are the base of all my recipes, substitute the pudding for a different flavor every now and then.
