Product Reviews of NOW Foods Whey Protein Isolate Natural Vanilla, 5 PoundsProduct Review: Now Foods isolate is the best of all I tried. Summary: 5 Stars
I have tried whey protein isolates from several manufacturers. Some of them are quite expensive. Some are cheap, but in fact they are not isolates. For example, Optimum Nutrition (ON) Gold Standard 100% Natural Whey mentions "whey protein isolate" on its label, but in fact it is not isolate and you can feel it right away (the taste and smell are just awful). For some time I believed that if a whey protein is too cheap, than it cannot be tasty. Now I see that it was a false impression. NOW Foods Whey Protein Isolate Natural Vanilla tastes just as good as a vanilla ice cream, although in terms of its price it is on the cheap end of the spectrum. The good taste is not the only advantage of this product. If you check the protein, cholesterol, fat and carbohydrate content and compare it to that of other whey protein brands, then you will find that this is just about as good at it gets. I have not found a source of whey protein with significantly greater protein content or significantly lower cholesterol, fat, or carbohydrate content even among more expensive whey proteins. I will stick with NOW Foods Whey Protein Isolate for a long time, because I like it.
Product Review: Pretty smooth and great tasting! Summary: 5 Stars
I was pleasantly surprised by the excellent quality of this brand and flavor. It mixes well, tastes really good, and doesn't feel thick in my stomach. With the added bonus of not having any artificial sweeteners or preservatives, this has become my new favorite whey powder. I mix 8 oz. of Odwalla Chocolate Protein Monster, 1 scoop of this whey powder, and 2 tablespoons of natural peanut butter for a smooth and tasty shake with 50 grams of protein per shake! It sits so well with my belly that I have even done a cardio workout within 15 minutes of drinking one and felt fine. It comes highly recommended from me!
Product Review: Tastes too synthetic...YUCK! Summary: 1 Stars
I ordered this product after reading some fairly good reviews. Thankfully I ordered the 1 lb. container. This was the most synthetic-tasting protein powder I have ever tasted. The taste is so horrendous that I would have given it no stars. It also gave me such painful gas just after one scoop of this stuff. I've used Jay Robb's in the past and I'll stick with that. At least it doesn't give me gas and it's much more palatable.
Product Review: tastes good Summary: 5 Stars
It's pricey but it tastes surprisingly delicious if you mix it with milk. It's a great product, Protein Isolate, for people that are lactose intolerant. You can also mix it with soy milk, just make sure that the MILK is WARM first, or it will clump up and not mix well at all.
Product Review: this is great stuff! Summary: 5 Stars
Needed to add dietary protein & was shopping for a good product at a reasonable price. Decided to try this product based on the favorable reviews, was impressed that it doesn't use artificial sweeteners. Was initially afraid to try it after it arrived in the mail- didn't want a bad after-taste like some other powders have. Once I tried it, I was hooked! The vanilla flavor is rich and tasty. My 20-yr old son loves it, too. Very pleased and will definitely purchase again.
