That's why I use Vega, lol.0

Just because it's not on the list doesn't mean it isn't safe, just that CR didn't test it. I do use protein powder, I use Healthy N Fit Egg White protein.0

I really like CLICK mocha - has 2 shots of espresso and is low sugar and calories - only about 120 calories for 8 oz..Pretty rich chocolate flavor - for those that need their chocolate fix!0

I LOVE BioRhythm Healthy Gains Swiss Chocolate, it is SOOO good!!!!!0

Optimum Nutriton - lol cal, no junk / sugar (powder protien)
Whey isolate is great but I only buy it when it's on sale
Natural sources - egg whites (yummy), tuna/can, fresh fish, and of course low/non fat cottage cheese for casein protien.
Casein Is important! Good amino acids and slow digestion rate. (4 to 7 hrs vs 45 mins for whey).
This makes a great bed time snack -- you can also buy as a supplement0
