Have you tried the vegan kinds? I like the vanilla and cinnamon Garden of Life ones. Heavy metals be damned, whey tastes like a warning from my ancestors that ingestion will equal death.

I like the texture of the Garden of Life Fit! powders. My preferred way to mix them is to use the “Original” and mix it with my electrolyte water.

I get sick of protein flavors so quickly. Currently bc of food aversions, I cant even stomach the smell but I know adding some to my smoothies would help me. Currently I have Garden of Life chocolate protein powder.

Garden of Life's plant-based protein powder is marginally cheaper, actually. Plus the calories are lower. https://preview.redd.it/4kpmuqu9kieg1.png?width=2946&format=png&auto=webp&s=edbb3c7965f3e5b7a562a911cc1cc6f56d6d3995

Garden of Life is the cheapest vegan protein powder that I've found, coming in at $6.34/100g protein. Also the calories/100g protein is decent, at 566.

Garden of Life protein powder is really good, and no whey. Super easy to digest and tasty

When im really down and out, have a low appetite (due to some health issues), or dont have time and I need to eat literally anything of substance, a smoothie is easy. I just use frozen fruit, almond or oat milk, garden of life protein powder (other options work, but my sister is a dietician and she likes this particular type), and sometimes a little maple syrup and vanilla extract if my fruit isnt very flavorful alone. Could also add in vegan yogurt, avocado, greens, almond butter, top with nuts, chia seeds, or granola, etc., if you wanted. Ive also used tofu (silken is best for this, though any will work) in my smoothies if for some reason I dont have any protein powder on hand, though I usually add in fruit juice and/or maple syrup with it to compensate for the more bland flavor. Also I think soy milk has some protein? If you dont mind the flavor you could use soy milk instead of oat/almond.

I have eosinophilic esophagitis that seems to be triggered by dairy products. I’m in the process of finding the best protein powder option for me. I’m looking for one that is over 20 g of protein per serving, not super sweet if drinking alone or even unsweetened to add it to my morning coffee that already has honey in it. I’ve tried Garden of Life (hated it, got weirdly foamy), OWYN (too sweet and got to where I could stand to drink it at all). Really liking PB2 performance with 22g protein but for 200 cal I’d love to find another option. I’m working with about 1400 cal/day so every little bit of tightening up helps me not hate my life 🤣.
