Plant Protein Powder - Whey Replacement

exacerbe

I'm not a big fan of whey protein/protein isolate or soy protein (could be an allergy) as they both hurt my stomach for some reason. The other day, I noticed they make plant based protein powder from peas, rice, hemp, etc.

For those that have tried or currently use them, any recommendations?

Soy protein hurts my stomach too sometimes. I've had good hemp protein a few times, but there's usually a little fat in there too. I tried a rice powder one time that was disgusting. It seems like even though there are vegans and vegetarians on here, there's not a lot of discussion of vegan/plant protein. Maybe check out amazon.com reviews and see which one people like best?

I use a custom mix from Trueprotein.com - I do 75% brown rice, 25% gemma pea. 118 calories and 25g protein per scoop - it can be a little grittier than whey, but the cake batter flavor is delicious!

Oh! I remember now that I've heard really good things about SunWarrior protein powder.

Nice - I'll definitely check it. Thanks!

I forgot about Amazon.com as well. Yeah.. I really don't think people should be eating that much soy anyways... kinda thankful it doesn't agree with me.
