r/ninjacreamiHow to get rid of the protein taste in the creami?

Pretty much every high quality whey isolate I’ve used has made a good creami. I like Legion Athletics, RAW Nutrition and Transparent Labs for an assortment of flavors

I've gone through all the protein shakes. They don't really cut it in terms of 3rd party testing, heavy metals etc. Vegan protein powders have similar weaknesses, aren't great for digestion for many people, and deliver less protein per calorie. I try to make sure I have proteins in lunch and dinner specifically. That tends to be chicken dominant with fish a close second, but also includes beef and lamb less often. I keep jerky around for some snack top ups but I use that less and less. Protein rich soups, dinner leftovers, tuna, etc make up a lot of my lunches. After I work out or on days I don't lift then after I run (so every day), I have a whey isolate and creatine shake in unsweetened almond milk. I use Transparent Labs whey isolate and Thorne creatine. Before bed I have a second almond milk shake with Naked casein. That's 5 to 7 days a week depending on how much protein I've had that day. I typically land around 150 grams of protein a day give or take. I never go below 145 but I sometimes end up as high as 165. I weigh about 145 lbs but fluctuate up a couple here and there and I'm actively working on gaining lean mass. I load up on fruit out of preference so my meal deliberateness and shake practice has landed me in a really healthy spot and, this may sound out there for people in the weight loss phase, but I need more calories not less. I'm titrating down to stimulate more calorie intake alongside regular excersize doing that on its own.

Unflavored Transparent Labs grass-fed whey isolate and almond milk. For occasional overnight protein, unflavored Naked casein. More like a pudding than a shake. A little Greek yogurt, honey, and almond milk.

r/beginnerfitnessWhat Is a good protein powder for beginners who cant stand the taste?
about 2 months ago

I use unflavored and drink it in almond milk usually. Sometimes in coffee. I've grown to like the taste. So far I've liked transparent labs the most but any brand with 3rd party heavy metals testing should be fine. They aren't making space shuttles. Processed protein is processed protein.

Second transparent labs. No emulsifiers, no artificial sweeteners, dyes, etc. I have tolerated it extremely well and made significant gains while using it

r/workoutBest tasting protein powder? I’ve tried a couple.

I've tried a LOT of brands and eventually settled with Transparent Labs for their ingredients and flavor. Smores is the best.

r/BiohackersSafest, tested protein powder brands that do not have harmful ingredients, heavy metals, etc?
7 months ago

I use transparent labs. Grass fed, they say 3rd party tested. Don’t see any harmful ingredients outside of (arguably) artificial sweetener. Edit: artificial sweetener they use is stevia, which is not artificial per se. jury’s still out imo, but considering what is in other powders, TL is doing it right

r/ZepboundWhat protein shakes do you guys recommend?
2 months ago

I get subscription deliveries of an unflavored whey isolate protein powder from Transparent Labs. I know they also have many different flavors. When I got my first shipment they sent a few gratis packs of different flavors. They seemed pretty good, but I prefer to get the unflavored powder.

I have 16 oz of Fairlife fat free milk, (160 calories 26g protein) with 2 scoops of protein powder every morning. My favorites are ghost chips ahoy, Oreo and nutter butter, transparent labs blueberry pancakes and optimal nutrition extreme chocolate milk. Total it’s like 400-480 calories and 80ish grams protein.
