Custom Protein Powder Mix

Look into True Nutrition. I make my own blend with my own choice of base protein, custom flavor and heaviness of flavor. And they have add ins like probiotics or multivitamins etc. my favorite. I use soy protein isolate personally. No issues. Not gritty.

TrueNutrition. You make your own. I do 50% pea, 30% rice, 20% soy. I’ve tried every flavor and marshmallow, pineapple, strawberry sorbet, cinnamon bun, maple pecan, salted caramel, and chocolate brownie are the ones my wife and I get now.

True Nutrition custom blends.

I’ve been using True Nutrition for a while now and it’s honestly one of the best protein companies out there. Their quality is top notch and they have a massive variety of protein types and flavors to choose from. What really sets them apart is that you can actually choose your sweetener: stevia, monk fruit, or sucralose, which I’ve never seen anywhere else. My go-to flavors are Cookies & Creme, Caramel Macchiato, and Marshmallow. If you want to give them a try, you can use my code Gavin10 for 10% off your order: https://www.truenutrition.com/Gavin10

I reached out to True Nutrition about a year ago and they sent their test results for their soy protein, rice protein concentrate, pea protein isolate, whey protein isolate ultra - CFM, whey protein isolate cold-filtration, whey protein concentrate, and RGBH/soy free whey protein isolate. Tests appear to have been performed by a company called Certified Laboratories in July 2024. I received test results for levels of lead, arsenic, cadmium, and mercury in each of the proteins I listed above. Here are the lead levels they provided: soy protein: 0.030 ppm rice protein concentrate: 0.362 ppm pea protein isolate: 0.025 ppm whey protein isolate ultra CFM: 0.024 ppm whey protein isolate cold-filtration: 0.023 ppm whey protein concentrate: 0.016 ppm rgbh/soy free whey protein isolate: 0.017 ppm I haven't typed out all the arsenic and cadmium and mercury levels because I am too lazy to type it all but if anyone is curious you can DM me and I can send you the PDFs. Or maybe I'll host them on google drive or something. Some math: For their rice protein concentrate, to reach 10 micrograms in a day, you would have to eat 33.33 grams of the protein concentrate (keep in mind there are often other fillers in the protein powder). 0.362(x) = 10μg --> x = 33.33 For something like the soy protein, to reach 10μg in one day, you would have to eat 0.030(x) = 10μg --> x = 333 grams TLDR: **For True Nutrition brand protein powder, most protein sources seem safe enough, but I'm probably going to avoid rice protein concentrate** **Edit:** Because I just read from other comments that California was suggesting 0.5μg per day, here is some more math. To consume 0.5micrograms of lead, you would have to eat: 16.67 grams of soy protein 1.38 grams of rice protein concentrate 20g of pea protein isolate 20.83g of whey protein isolate ultra CFM 21.74g of whey protein isolate cold-filtration 31.25g of whey protein concentrate 29.41g of rgbh/soy free whey protein isolate

I second TN. I’ve made a few of my own non-whey mixes and the texture was way more tolerable than like ghost vegan. And the fact TN has so many options besides just making it all pea protein too is great

I get mine from true nutrition. 3rd party tested and it's byo.

True nutrition will make you a flavorless protien and you can build your own blend. Been using them the last year and I love it. Also 1st and 3rd party tested. This is not a paid promotion lol

They also have fruity flavors

I really like tru nutrition. You can make your own blend and has links to 3rd party testing. 

You can just make your own at True Nutrition. I have been using them for years and have several customizations I have saved. You can also save money by buying in bulk which is anything more than 7 pounds. I don't work for them but do have a referral link to save you (and me) some money: [https://www.truenutrition.com/ZACH13171](https://www.truenutrition.com/ZACH13171)

Yeah my usual order is 50% pea, 25% rice, 25% pumpkin :)

I like True Nutrition's WP Isolates (rBGH/Soy Free Whey Protein Isolate in particular), and I've also had custom mixes from them. I get unflavored. Undetectable levels of Arsenic, Cadmium, Mercury, and Lead. You can request lab reports from them. The only issue with them is slow shipping, but if you plan ahead and order more before you run out, it's not a big deal. The one I mentioned has: **Total Fat** 0g, **Cholesterol** 0mg, **Sodium** 80mg, **Total Carbohydrate** 1g, Total Sugars 1g, **Protein** 30g IMO ON isn't great. The flavor is good, but its cholesterol is high, and the amount of protein per scoop is low. Based on that, the amount of Isolate in their mix is probably much lower than in the other two lower-quality proteins. Depends on what you're after, I guess.

Yes I absolutely take protein powder, both during pregnancy and breastfeeding. It’s just protein and protein is an essential nutrient. I still eat Oreos too, they’re even more processed and less healthy lol, so just make sure you’re getting a good protein powder and not a crap one with a bunch of fillers. I use True Nutrition’s grass fed beef protein powder (flavored with either monk fruit or Stevia) because I’m dairy intolerant. No effect on baby whatsoever, and I was able to actually get some protein in me during my morning sickness phase.

Grass fed beef protein powder from True Nutrition is the best. And I’ve tried a lot of dairy free protein powders. I get the cacao with monk fruit sweetener and put it in hot water to make myself a little hot chocolate. Sounds gross but you don’t taste the beef at all. The one problem is mixability - you need something like a milk frother to mix it up - but that’s a problem with most dairy-free protein powders anyway.
