Pure Original Ingredients Rice Protein Powder (5 lb) Sustainably Sourced, Vegan & Gluten-Free, Made of Sprouted Brown Rice

Part of my regimen - helped me lose 40 lb in 4 month (along with fiber and a mutli-vitamin). I added a scoop of pea protein for complete amino acid. The combo tasted bland (if you add plain psyllium, it thickens up and tastes like the rice cereal they feed to toddlers - this has pleasant memories for me, but will not be everyone's cup of tea). It doesn't taste bad - just boring. The NOW Egg protein was superior in composition, more expensive than the rice powder, but I had to suppress my gag reflex to get a whole glass down; egg protein NOT very digestible (this leads to episodes of gas that would cause a pilot to make an emergency landing if you squeezed one out on a plane). The worst part of it, though, egg protein was not easily soluble in water. Always left with chunks caked to the side.The ISO whey is superior to the concentrated whey for digestibility and a little more expensive - if you're on a budget, go for the Nutricost Whey. And take a gasX.If you are vegan, you cannot beat the rice powder + pea powder

Protein: high, I take 4 teaspoon every morning and that's easily around 32gs of protein and it'll still last more than a monthQuality: I've tried other rice proteins. The quality isn't low or high. for the value the protein quality is highTaste: this is where a lot of the comments will have you going north. Yes it's a bit bitter but it's literally not flavored or anything. So it's time to get creative. I make a banana and strawberry smoothie with cinnamon, nutmeg, honey, 1 cup of milk, and a quarter of a cup of water and it's finished within 2 minutes.Effect on Stomach: haven't noticed an upset and this is my first meal of the day for the last 3 months and it's been great.Texture: chalky, dust likeCalories: extremely low when you're measuring protein to calories. If you wanted to consume 24g that'll be around 120 calories which is amazing.I will buy again and I'd recommend to a friend easily. Overall rating is 4.2 - 4.5 because value and organic is amazing. The taste is irrelevant to me since I could mix it up. Hope this review helps

I have been drinking protein shakes for about 18 years and I don’t recall ever having to throw one away. I generally make my protein shakes with frozen bananas and fruit so I didn’t think taste would be an issue. However, it tasted like I was drinking poison, and could not come close to finishing it.

I purchased 5 pounds of rice and 5 pounds of pea and mixed them together. compared to the other options i see on amazon.ca and amazon.com and the shops around town this was the best option.when added to a smoothie its great. but mostly i just mix a serving in a glass with water and a fork and just drink it fast. doesnt taste great that way, its organic, cost effective, and plant based, not from an animal thats had bioacumulation of pesticides or whatever.the other naked brand on amazon costs to much. this one doesnt come with a nice plastic container that reseals easily but i am sure most people have some of those around. just dont make a mes mixing and putting in a better container.

I actually normally get now sport's pea protein as my "cheap" proteins... pea has a reputation for tasting vegetal and I've been making protein cookies a lot so I thought this would be a good product to cut in for a better flavor. I've had nutribiotic rice and it taste great- this rice has a really bitter taste to it. I don't know if I got a bad batch- in comparison my pea protein is delightful. So ironically I'm using the pea to dilute the flavor of this... The macro profile is great, I also wish they had nutrition info on the back. With the bitter chemically taste the lack of info makes me feel weird about this.I would say if calories aren't a huge concern for you it's not *too* hard to dress this protein up, and it is a value. Rice is pretty easy on the stomach. But if you're like me, and you want a protein you don't have to ad much to, this is maybe not the one. I am accustomed to drinking plain unsweetened protein powder in water sometimes so I don't think I've especially picky.

The slight bitter flavor from the sprouted rice was unexpected but it's normal for sprouted grains. The protein is quality and has less of an issue with powderyness than other brands. Overall good value.

The price is unbeatable. I am totally ok with the little bit bitter flavor.

Tastes awful, costs great. Needs lysine to complete the protein. I use it every day. Great value product.
