Yummy
This protein powder is our new favorite! The taste is amazing, it’s not grainy, and it fills you up. Great and creamy with both water and milk. High in protein and lasts awhile. This is worth the money. I have lost 3lbs by adding this into my diet. It’s very effective.

Whoo! Are my nutritional problems solved?
Ever since a nutritionist told me I should be eating 30 gms of protein in one sitting every day, but preferably three times a day until I healed up I’ve felt dismay every time I thought of this. 30 gms is 5 large eggs, five oz of boneless cooked skinless, defatted chicken or about 7-8 oz of steak with bone. How does anyone put that much food into their bodies day after day let alone three times a day? Less fanatical doctors have warned me about doing this. Even if you balance one of these meals with a vegan diet, it’s rough on your heart and kidneys for sure and probably all the rest of your internal organs too. And yet with all these dire warnings, I wasn’t healing. Clearly, I needed to be on this diet.Practically speaking, it’s also a lot of cooking. I can’t keep up with 30 gm per day and end up eating the healthiest frozen food to fill the gaps. All in all, my diet may technically hit 30 gms for one meal but the day is unbalanced because I don’t have enough time to prepare vegan foods.Of course, I’ve tried protein supplements but the entire category is rife with problems. Protein powders suffer from contaminants the most notorious being heavy metals. Yeah, we’re talking lead, cadmium…real nice stuff. And there are a gauntlet of safety boards that independently test for contamination. The only one I see here is the non-GMO seal which is nice but do people really think plants can’t pick up something nasty?Having said all that, the ingredient list is the only one I’ve encountered so far that won’t upset my gut. Being able to hang onto the stuff is the furthest I’ve gotten with these powders.Oh yeah. It tastes good. That’s a new one.Vega, you have done well… so far. You need to sign up for a fistful of safety certifications. Pretty slogans about being good for people and planet carry little weight here.Less you think I’m being harsh, Vega is the highest scoring product I’ve tried. The others were complete wash-outs due to lack of safety standards or even worse they had the safety but added difficult to tolerate ingredients for assorted cosmetic reasons which caused the gut to reject it entirely. I can’t like it if I can’t hold it down.I’ve done some internet research on this topic, the nutritionists are trying to trigger protein synthesis which you need to heal. Protein synthesis once initiated lasts for vaguely 36-48 hours before you need to restart. Eating protein in one sitting is about 2-3 hours. If you want to maximize healing eat 30 gms per sitting 3x spaced evenly throughout the day. Most of the timings come from the weight lifting community and were measured on muscle but I’m hoping it generalizes.Using the Vega with some food 3x per day still seems unrealistic. I tried 30 gms in one sitting and I could barely eat for the rest of the day.

Best Protein Powder Out There
I have used this protein powder for at least 2 years now. I was looking to supplement mine and my teen ASD daughter’s diet (she is vegan). We usually eat it for breakfast. Although I do cheat and add just 2 tablespoons of Hershey’s light dark chocolate syrup. I compared and tried a few other protein powder drinks. This checked all the boxes. So glad I found this product and would highly recommend!

Good tasting
I like this protein powder. It tastes good and mixes easily though it doesn’t stay mixed if you let the shake sit for a while. If it settles, it tastes a little grainy.
