I use MyProtein pea protein isolate, plain with no flavour. I prefer it because it hasn’t got any chemicals or added sweeteners etc. If I want a flavour / sweetness I can add it myself and make a smoothie with berries or fruit, peanut butter, cocoa powder, yogurt etc
I paid $24.99 for MyProtein unflavoured pea protein powder 1kg. The one on sale expires in 6 weeks but I consume it within a month so I’m ok with that.
They also have other options. The cheapest one is Pea protein isolate, 5600 for 2.5 kg. They have the cleanest options for proteins. Just remember that as it comes as an international delivery you need to order Above 12000 for free delvery, 6000 for 450 yen delivery fee If below that then 1800 delivery fee.
Pea protein isolate. Near tasteless, mixes completely, no chalky aftertaste that you get with a lot of plant blends. Myprotein do one that's cheap and ships here no bother, Kinetica also do one you can get in most pharmacies. Hemp seeds are worth throwing in too - won't spike the numbers dramatically but good fats, a bit of nuttiness, and they blend down smooth. Combine both and you're covering a decent amino acid profile without the whey.
Yeah I have the myprotein pea protein unflavored one. It's easy enough to drink.
As someone who generally likes unflavoured, unsweetened, unsalted stuff, unflavoured pea protein is *gross* +1 for MyProtein, they do have them for a not-too-bad prices when discounted
On gold cannot compare, fk myprotein the quality is just bad
I got the chocolate pea protein one 5lbs. The quality of the powder compared to on gold is heaven and earth. myprotein powder takes long mix with water. Whereas on gold just mix smoothly
