   Two large white stickers had been placed over the product label and over the nutritional table. I could not even tell what flavor it was and whether it was whey or casein. Was this a previous return/second? I attempted to remove stickers (see photos). I did not feel comfortable opening, so I returned it.

   The product listing and images do not disclose that the prop 65 warning “lead” warning label that it comes with. The name of the product says “grass fed whey protein isolate”, however their ingredients just lists “whey protein isolate”. It omits the “grass fed” part. Also it claims that it’s grass fed whey protein “isolate”, and sweetened with stevia however it makes me feel gassy and leaves a weird after taste more similar to sucralose or an artificial sweetener. After being deceived by the product listing and my poor experience with this product, the fact that it says “made from globally sourced ingredients” makes me question even more their ability to maintain quality, cleanliness, and accuracy of their ingredients.

   I was excited to get this product until I read the sticker on it. While I appreciate them for letting consumers know, I no longer feel good about taking this supplement…

   The chocolate is my favorite of all the flavors. I have tried ch pb, vanilla , cake batter and cookies and cream. The others seem more artificial (although the plain vanilla is good too) I like it because it blends well and it is lower in cholesterol than most I’ve tried. This brand is also 3rd party tested which is a big deal to me

   My go-to protein. Goes well with coffee, tea and matcha as a healthier option creamer.

   I am a crazy researcher and this protein powder search was no exception. I didn’t like the grit of the Sprouts pea protein powder I tried and I loved Bob’s Red Mill whey concentrate but I was pretty sure it was contributing to my possible lactose-intolerance stomach issues.

   What I like about this isolate one:
   Even though there were some lumps the shaker way (vs blender), it was still tasty even if I chewed on a lump. And zero grit. And whey, I read, is supposedly better for bones than pea protein. And whey isolate (vs concentrate) is typically easier on the stomach for lactose intolerant folks. And this unflavored version has zero sucralose/stevia. And the lecithin in this one is sunflower vs soy lecithin. The sunflower lecithin (vs soy lecithin) might help lower bad (LDL) cholesterol, I read, and, I figured hey, why not go for it if I have the choice over soy, even though soy is low risk. Oh yeah…and the isolate form (vs concentrate form or pea protein) has more protein per gram of powder, at least as far as what I’ve read and seen. This isolate one ends up 30 g of protein in a 35 gram scoop. =.85g protein per gram of powder. 😀 The Sprouts vegan gave 20g protein in a 31 g scoop. =.64g protein per gram of powder.

   Did I just about cover all the factors?😆

   I like the taste, especially with almond or oat milk but I’ve even tried with plain water and it’s not bad. I use about 16oz cold unsweetened almond milk in a shaker bottle, mixes in well. Blends well into smoothies and makes them sweeter too. Good value, clean ingredients- would recommend to anyone who can have whey!

   I’ve been using nutricost products for almost 2 years not. Great products. Great price. Only thing is inconsistency in texture of certain products like creatine for example, the powder has a different texture on different bottles . Overall satisfied 🙂

   This company as of last week has implemented policy as of last week not giving the heavy metals labs transparency out to their customers. I use alot of their products and now have to be returned since I called and they refuse now to be transparent about lead,arsenic, mercury and all other heavy metals in there protein or other products. This is a big RED FLAG, im disappointed

    Probably a great product but didn’t have a chance to even try it due to it being broken. I purchased it with another one of nutricost’s products to get 10% off but now I have to pay full price to reorder. I think I’m going to hold off for a bit. 🙁

    I did an extension search to find the most quality whey protein and this ended up at the top of my list. My criteria included a protein that was grass-fed whey isolate, 25+ grams of protein per scoop, little to none added sugar, and most importantly no artificial anything. Nutricost checked all the boxes and as a bonus the vanilla flavor is honestly delicious! Will buy again.

    This is works great in protein, berry, banana and veggie smoothies I make at home. Yummmm

    Almond milk and cashew milk doesn’t mix with this stuff. It literally balled up in the spring. I have only been able to mix with water, but it tastes nasty. Tastes like milky water or extra extra extra skim milk.

    I heavily researched what product was right for me, this was highly recommended. It is advertised as dissolvable. I purchased this to mix with my morning coffee. I just tried it for the first time. It clumped at the top. I tried using my daughter little mixer to see if that would work, clearly it did not. I felt the clumps and they were grainy! I tried to return because it was not as advertised, and it was a non-refundable item. I had to go through bestproteinpowder4women.net get my refund. Beware this product.

    I’ve consumed a lot of protein shakes. I really enjoy the ingredient list and flavor profile for this product. Well done. And I love that it is sweetened with stevia.

    As much as I I wanted to live this one, it upsets my stomach. I had to give the remainder to a neighbor. Edit: this was so bad that my neighborhood didn’t even want it.

    

17. Benjamin Zweig Verified Buyer – 9 March 2025

    This is a great quality protein with clean ingredients that’s sweetened with stevia, as I prefer. I do think the chocolate variety is too sweet, though, so I mix it with the unflavored whey. One important note is that the scooper included Is not equal to the serving size; it really should say “very heaping” scoop. I always recommend weighing new protein powders with a kitchen scale to have a better idea of the serving sizes.

    The protective paper under the cap seems like it was superglued to the container or something.

    I used to hate whey protein, but I realized it wasn’t the protein itself—I hated: • The fillers • The overpowering sweetness of artificial sugars • The fake overpowering flavor • The thick, unappetizing texture when left sitting But! This whey protein is completely different: • No weird fillers or artificial taste • I mix it with plain milk, and it tastes like dried milk powder • Naturally sweet, smooth, and delicious—taste exactly as it should, milk. • I absolutely love it! I’m not going back I tried Optimum Nutrition (many flavors) and they all suck, even the vanilla one, make me want to throw up. That’s the reason I got this one, and was the best choice

    I have been taking this protein 1-2scoops daily for the last 3 years you really can’t beat the price for being a grass-fed whey isolate without low-quality added ingredients. It tastes as good as unflavored is going to taste and I usually add it to smoothies or cereal, helps me hit my protein intake goals.

    It’s good. No sugar either. I ordered unflavored, and it’s just fine. 30gr protein is better than many others. I use it because I exercise daily; I don’t care for the flavored stuff loaded w/sweeteners!! No!! I’m after good ‘ol healthy food & this delivers. I mix w/milk or an almond/cashew nut milk and am impressed how well it mixes!!! No clumping!! Thank you!! I’d rate a 5star but label states it msg contain traces of toxic metals. Many brands do, to my disappointment.

    Absolutely clean, wonderful stuff, and although it’s slightly more expensive than the non-grass-fed it’s definitely worth it
