Protein Powder Recommendation

lovesallanimals · ‎03-11-2010

I was out in the health food store today trying to find a Protein Powder to add to my smoothies. I just want an unflavored, no-sugar added one. There were no many, all different descriptions, etc. I was overwhelmed. Can anyone recommend a simple one that is high in protein, no sugar or artificial ingredients, to add to my fruit smoothies? Thanks.

I buy 100% 'isolated soy protein' in bulk from health food stores. Not a brand. Nothing added at all. Made from soybeans. I just scoop it out of the bin into a plastic bag, they weigh it, and charge me by the pound. It has virtually no flavor. You can add it to hot soups or cold smoothies.

I like "VEGA" protein & greens

20 grams plant-based protein
Veggies and greens
110-120 calories
0-1 grams of sugar

Chocolate is my favorite flavor

Hope this helps!

@lovesallanimals I love Andrew Lessman's Whey protein powder. Soy does not agree with me. He's on HSN.

I get them in Whole Foods. They are flavored naturally and I've gotten and given Papaya. Is the one offered here flavored? I thought it was a chocolate, etc.

Unless there is no fear from soy, fine. Soy stimulates estrogen, I think, and not to be given to anyone with a history of cancer.

I like NutriBiotic Rice Protein. 0 added sugars, 12 g protein

If you have ever had breast cancer or have family members with breast cancer, you should stay away from soy. Google it to find out more!

I use UNJURY. Order it on line. Recommended to my daughter by her weight loss surgeon.

Another soy vote here. I buy 'NOW' brand powder in plain, chocolate and vanilla. The association of soy and cancer was a concern for me at one time because my mother had breast cancer. I discussed this with my doctor and she said the soy was fine for me. I have never had cancer.
