NutricostGrass-Fed Whey Protein Concentrate - Undenatured, Non-GMO, Gluten Free, Natural Flavors

I’ve been weight training for many years and have competed in the past. I take my nutrition fairly serious. I currently track my macros and consume a high amount of protein daily. I need to have several different protein sources handy in order to meet my goals. I always keep a few different whey proteins in my cupboard for simple consumption or for various recipes. Usually I consume at least one whey protein shake a day – typically post workout or for an added protein source. My staples have been the Optimum Nutrition Naturally Flavored Gold Standard 100% Whey in chocolate or the Levels Whey in chocolate. I refuse to consume anything with sucralose (Splenda) because of the gut bacteria imbalance it causes over time- so I stick with naturally sweetened (no sugar added) whey proteins. Both of these are naturally sweetened and good products, but the price on the 5lb container has been increasingly going up. I was checking for some alternatives and found this Nutricost Grassfed Whey. I really like Nutricost- I use a lot of their products in general. Like their glutamine, vitamin C powder, etc. I probably have 20 different products from them in my medicine/supplement cabinet and have used them over the years with satisfaction. Honestly, it didn’t dawn on me that they had whey protein?… When I searched and saw their brand- I immediately read on the product/consumer reviews… The ingredients in this specific Grassfed version are phenomenal and simple!… also the price point was really great comparatively. I decided to give it a try. So glad I did!! This will be my new go to basic protein. I usually don’t buy a whey protein specifically for the taste- although I always do favor the chocolate version. If you’ve dabbled in whey proteins you’ve come to realize that when the flavor is listed as “Chocolate Milkshake “, etc… they usually do not taste like that unless they’re full of unnecessary ingredients/calories. For me, whey protein is just what it should be, a way to ‘supplement’ additional protein in your diet… so taste takes a back burner for me… BUT this shake tastes phenomenal!! Seriously, I was truly shocked! Don’t let the bland packaging fool you– the taste is great and so is the mixability! I tossed 1.5 scoops with water, glutamine, and creatine post weight training for the first time in a Blender Bottle shaker and there were zero lumps, chunks, or gumminess… and the flavor was on point! Also, it did not cause any tummy discomfort!… You will not be disappointed. This will now be my go to whey protein. I have only tried the chocolate flavor, which truly tasted like milk chocolate. I will buy the vanilla soon for recipes… Enjoy!

I have used several different products over the years. I look for grass-fed, documented quality products. I am really happy to have found this. Top quality, mixes easily, and a great price.

This whey is the best tasting "grass fed with NOTHING added" whey to buy for TASTE, as it is "CONENTRATE".If this product contained "Natural Ingredients" then it would most likely include Lecithin which is either Sunflower or Soy based almost 100% of the time.Nitricosts Grass-Fed Whey Protein ISOLATE tastes bitter; and, its bitterness is very difficult to eliminate or neutralize mixing things that are sweet.

Delicious! I put 1 scoop of the chocolate whey protein concentrate in a shaker with 2 cups unsweetened cashew milk and it dissolved quite well and tastes like chocolate milk! If you like chocolate, I think you'll like this whey--and there is no discernible "whey taste".

The flavor is gross. Not sure what they used. Do not waste your money on this product. Better to buy a different brand that is less product and better flavor. Someone else I know bought the strawberry flavor of this brand and said it was horrible tasting, too, so it isn't just the vanilla flavor. Avoid this brand.Definitely get what you pay for with this product.Sadly, I would have to pay to ship it back in order to get a refund. Buyer beware.
