I take nuticost pea protein and mix it with Ceylon cinnamon powder. The protein is cheap, vegan, the cinnamon has its health benefits and helps the powder go down.
I like Nutricost Vegan Organic because they add coconut milk powder to it so it just needs water. I use chocolate PB and they use peanut butter powder so it's not a strong flavor just enough umami to offset the chalkiness of the pea protein.
This stuff is gross imo sorry
Garden of Life Whey Protein Bob's Red Mills Whey Protein Nutricost Bob's Red Mills Almond Protein All have little to no extra ingredients, just simple Whey Isolate or Concentrate. None of them has sucralose. It's best to purchase frozen berries in bulk and create your taste w/ a blender, i.e. strawberry or wildberries. This way, you also get Fiber.
Iβve added Greek yogurt and cottage cheese. Protein I just buy Nutricost on Amazon. Simple ingredients nothing crazy but also no crazy flavors.
Bingo! This is the cheapest I've found - $2.79 per 100g of protein, and at the lower end of calories (480 calories per 100g protein).
I also recommend Nutricost brand! I did however develop an intolerance to either lactose or whey recently⦠and switched to Vega brand which is all plant based protein. I mix with water and frozen fruit or ice (depending on flavor) and have found it to be tasty and filling. Both Oikos and Chobani have good high protein (20+ grams) Greek yogurt.
If you've ever tried to reach out to them to see the results from their third party testing you might feel differently. They completely refused to provide any information without a purchase order #, and even then some of the tests contained "proprietary information" and couldn't be shared. I did eventually get them to admit that if a batch of product has an unsafe amount of lead the most they will do is put a prop65 warning on it.
I'm well aware, which is why I ask companies for results. It is alarming/annoying/shady the degree for which nutricost hides their results.
I use nutricost too just because it's so damn cheap. That price is hard to beat. Is it the best? Idk. It's better than running out because I haven't got paid yet.
I have tried several clear proteins and Oath is my favorite. It's pricey and each bag is only about 17 servings so drinking that much will get expensive real quick. i try to catch them on sale. They sale sample packs. So you can try before buying. You can get them from Target for about $3 each or from the Oath website. As for unflavored whey, I think people assume this means flavorless but it doesn't. It still tastes like whey without the sweeteners or added flavors like chocolate, vanilla etc. I have a big.ol tub ofNutricost now and about a quarter of a way through decided I can't tolerate milky powders anymore.
