The lowest carb protein powder available

IrishChik

I am trying to locate the lowest carb protein powder for shakes, smoothies, general baking and so on. I have some Ideal Shape that I ordered a long time ago and still had a vanilla that was not opened. It has 4 net per serving. The chocolate had 6 net, which I feel is too much. I hear a lot of people talk about whey and I wonder what brand, or just any low net carb powders. I would like to be able to find them at Kroger, Meijer, Rite Aid or even Walmart if I have to go that far. I live in a small town and each one of these stores is in another city. Bah!

Anyway, I have compiled 100s of meal replacement/smoothie recipes and photos over the years and I am I have slowly been putting it into a cookbook to go with my website(s). Now that I have gone 100% low carb I want to re-create these with a low carb powder.

Thanks for your help!

I use Jay Robb http://www.jayrobb.com/protein/whey-protein-vanilla.asp

"Jay Robb's Whey Protein is made from the finest natural ingredients available and delivers 25 grams of first class protein, 0-fat, 0-cholesterol, 0-sugars, and only 1 gram of carbohydrate per 30 gram serving."

I think it is very tasty. I have tried several of the flavors and they have all been good.

Thank you! Can't beat 1 gram! I have heard excellent things about his powders.

We use MRM protein powder - 1.5g of carbs in a serving. Huge upside is that MRM isnot soy based.

I haven't tried this yet, but am planning on ordering some: http://essentiallivingfoods.com/products/whey-protein-powder-grass-fed-organic-9oz

I use 2 different ones:

Optimum Nutrition platinum hydro whey. 2 carbs, 30g protein.
Isopure low carb. 3 carbs, 50g of protein. I usually only take 1 scoop, making it 1.5 carbs per serving.

Both are fast acting proteins for post workout.

I think the platinum hydro whey tastes a lot better and I mix mine with less water for a more concentrated flavor.

I also second gmans Jay Robb suggestion, the vanilla is quite tasty.

I think there is a 0 carb one called about time or it's about time. It tastes pretty nasty though!

Does anyone know about Chris Powell protein powder?

For any Canadians in this thread, here is a protein powder from Popeye's that meets my needs:

I'm a fan of the Nature's Best IsoPure brand. A few zero-carb flavors and they're delicious.
