Nutricost Whey Protein Isolate (Unflavored) 2 Pounds

It's too expensive compared with anther brands

Seems quite good, avoids excess sugar, good mixed with your own cocoa and flavorings to taste, "Isolate" is better than "Concentrate" if you wish to avoid excess fat and perhaps receive a little less sugar (lactose), decent price, palatable enough, dissolves quite well in 6 oz cold milk in a blender (but don't put it in hot beverages like hot coffee, it curdles). Nutricost website says, "Made in a GMP Compliant, FDA Registered Facility", but this statement falls short and isn't very reassuring, it would be nice to be able to read the actual chemical analysis performed by an independent reputable lab such as USP, this is always a concern. For instance, what is the actual measured heavy metal and lead concentration? The disclaimer "Do not use for weight reduction" is puzzling and a bit CYA, since this whey animal protein presumably has a full complement of amino acids, and undoubtedly many folks including myself are using it to boost protein intake while taking GLP-1 agonists and limiting calories. Thus we have to take some of this on faith, never a fully comfortable undertaking for something we ingest daily.

I was honestly a little skeptic by first but honestly, it doesn’t have any flavor and it’s really smooth once you mix it with milk. The only complaint that I have about it is that it’s not as powdery as other proteins. It’s more like a clay, not as grainy as others so it makes it a little bit more difficult to get an accurate measurement of a cup.

Great taste

I have tried every protein and its dog. Egg whites gave me hives. Soy isolate, pea protein, and brown rice isolates make me break out in shingles. I am an older person, and I lift. I need the extra protein. Tried whey concentrate, and it made me feel weird. Protein bars make me gassy, and I really didn't want to have to eat tons of meat, or gobs of beans and grains. I can't eat enough of the latter to keep up with my protein demands. Especially not when doing IF, which is kind of a lifestyle for me. I'm not so fussy that I worry about chalkiness or how well it mixes, as I have an immersion blender. I really don't care what it tastes like. The fat and cholesterol contents are low enough that I can live with it, and it doesn't give me gas or hives. It's a concentrated protein that I can live with. So this is now my go-to. Will be doing a Subscribe and Save for it.
