Hi all...I am in Canada. I am on a low carb diet but can't seem to meet my protein macros, so I was wondering which protein powder supplement you use? Looking for one that tastes great without so many calories. Thank you!

    I use the Kaizen Naturals vanilla from Costco Canada. About $35 when on sale, I think.

    41g, 150cal, 3g carb, 0.5g fat, 35g protein.

    Contains: whey protein isolate, natural flavours, soy lecithin<1% (emulsifier), xanthan gum, stevia leaf extract.

    I just use it if I am short on protein and mix it with water.

    Cheers, h.

    My all-time favourite is DynaWhey because it mixes so well with just water and the iced cappuccino tastes great. 36g serving is 130 cals with 7g carbs and 25g protein.

    My coworker's daughter and her b/f are into body building and they recommended Canadianprotein dot com to me because their protein is low in preservatives. They have a ton of flavours. Their flavoured whey isolate is 121 cals, 27g protein and 1g carb for a 30g serving. Doesn't mix as smoothly with water, however.

    I like LeanFit which I buy at Costco. To me it has the best taste for the price and is super low carb which I look for.

    I also use Kaizen from Costco. I don't always use a full scoop and when it's 10$ off twice a year I stock up. Should be soon again
