Review on πŸƒ NOW Sports Nutrition Natural Unflavored Pea Protein Powder, 24g Fast Absorbing, 7lb Beige Container by Tim Aguilar

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The best price for high quality protein.

I did the math. It's easily the cheapest protein I can buy gram for gram. Maybe someone is selling whey in 25 pound bags for less, but I doubt it. On the other hand, 24 grams of protein per 120 calories is very good. According to the labels (without the thermal heat of the protein. Look, interesting) 96 calories of this 120 cal serving are from protein. It's very respectable. There are higher ratios (I've added the new EAS Avantedge to my soups) but none of them compare (gram for gram) at this price point. I'm not vegan. Not even close, it is that pea protein pairs extremely well with whey protein for muscle building. It is a complete protein, unlike many plant-based proteins, and is high in BCAAs. To be honest, my only beef with plant-based proteins, pun intended, are heavy metals, and as far as I know this product contains lead, albeit in safe amounts as this guy understands. Some of us use this substance way more often than expected, so I plan on turning it on and off regularly to keep it from turning into Nero. The taste is normal and now I like it. It was unusual at first, but unlike some other products, at least it doesn't taste bitter. Now that I'm used to it, I don't sweeten it or anything. 1 scoop in a small amount of water and on the ground.

Pros
  • Items may ship warm during the summer months, but Amazon will stock and ship items as per manufacturer's policy when available.
Cons
  • Socket required
