Garden of Life - Raw Organic Meal Replacement Protein Powder

I'm kinda confused cuz I'm tired and dumb. I also use the Garden of Life Raw Organic Meal (Chocolate), and according to garden of life themselves, it has about 1.2 mcg of lead. It's unfortunately If the limit per day is like 5, isnt that really bad? Or am I misinterpreting something? If you could explain to my dumb brain I'd appreciate it

My concern tho is that if I'm getting that much from a scoop of protein powder, which is like 100-150 calories of the 2500 I eat per day...how much am I really intaking?

I found I couldn’t process dairy at all during chemo. I used a great protein powder Garden of Eatin Raw Organic Meal with oatmilk, left steamed veggies in the fridge to pick on when I had an appetite, especially potatoes given that they are nutrient dense and bland. Electrolyte beverages are important to have on hand, I used off brand pedialyte as there was less sugar, but avoid the beverages that advertise having loads of B vitamins ( i.e. Mio Viamins) unless your MedOnc gives you an all clear (it can and does interact with several chemos at even reasonably high doses). All the best to you hun.

I'm currently having Garden of Life's Raw Organic Meal (powder), in Vanilla, which has about 20g of protein in one scoop. Plus it has a buttload of vitamins & organic vegetable and plant ingredients. All the ingredients are clean (no natural flavors, etc), but it's still delicious. You could also try GoL's Raw Organic Protein line. Only difference is it has less vitamins, and has an amino acid profile, whereas the other one doesn't.

I’ve been eating Chocolate Raw Organic Meal from Garden of Life for what feels like a decade. Plant-based protein. 20g per scoop. I’ve started using oatmeal in my shakes in place of strawberries and I’m upset I didn’t discover it years ago.

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 🤣.
