Depends on what you are using it for Lilanasamata, I lift, i have 5 protein shakes a day on top of my meals, so for me it is not a meal replacement but there are some people that use protein shakes as meal suppliments.
Also depends on what youa re going for, i also take teh MusclePharm Casien, it is an extended release protein, were as your body will process whey in an hour or two, Casien stays in your system for longer, thats why I use it after work outs and before bed.0 -
I prefer Isopure Low Carb protein powder in the dutch chocolate flavor. 50 grams of protein per shake - can't beat that!0

Dymatize Fusion 7. it's a protein blend. so the proteins all have different absorption rates. Perfect as a meal replacement or before bed. And keeps you full at night. Cookies n Cream...sooo good.
The best I've ever tried was Ultra Peptide Cinnamon Roll. Mostly casein and slow released, but unlike normal casein that tastes abhorrent...this was incredibly good. But it was like $45 for 2 lbs.0 -
If you remove all processed foods from your diet, Vega (and your taste in general) will adjust to more natural foods and flavours.
Vega taste great to me, but their recovery isn't that great tasting. I do think that Genuine Health Vegan and Vega are the highest quality out there. Whey is on the low scale for quality no matter how you cut it, but it's still popular, most likely b/c it's cheap. I personally can't keep whey down, and rather get it from the most natural sources of all - plants. (btw not a vegan lol).0 -

I bolded the wild accusation. I doubt you will find a study that would back this claim.0 -
I get the brown rice/gemma pea protein from truenutrition.com. I get the vanilla birthday cake flavor and it is absolutely delicious, and comparable nutrition to whey protein. I don't love it in a shaker with plain water, but I didn't like plain whey and water either. I love this one mixed into oatmeal or in a blended smoothie. Plus, the price is way better than any other protein powder I've found!0

Red 8 Whey Protein - Chocolate Flavour. Great after a gym workout.
Hello, fellow Kiwi here. Ive seen the Red 8 brand in the health shops. I might check it out some more and try some0 -
Hi RepsnSets. Great to see another kiwi here!
Yes, Red 8 is only sold in health shops (from what I have found). You're looking at about $40.00 for 500g. For me, I have found that to be enough because I do not go to the gym everyday and sometimes only drink it when I am super busy and miss a meal. Mixed with 400ml of water, only 97 calories and next to nothing in carbs and fat. Mixed with 400ml of trim milk, 269 calories and still next to nothing in fat but lots of carbs.0 -

Thanks for that. Does it thicken up easily? I like failry thick protein shakes dont like to think im drinking muddy water lol0 -
I also like the vega smoothies because they aren't made with milk. I usually mix
With water and some fruits. The whey powders give me stomach aches.0 -

Aussie Bodies Protein FX Low Carb
http://www.aussiebodies.com.au/product/proteinfx-lo-carb-powder
Easy to get (supermarkets carry it), not too expensive and gets the job done. I only have it post-workout though.0 -
I agree, I have always wondered why they don't make flavors like Willie Wonkas gum. Roast beef with a Baked potato and sour cream flavored shake would be delicious! And I have always wondered why they don't make Tootsie Roll Sugar Free gum. That would really be yummy.0

MRM Veggie Protein Vanilla. It's great mixed with water, so no added calories. If you've ever tried baby rice cereal, that's sort of that flavor and consistency.
It has Pea, Hemp, Rice, Flax seed, Chia seed, Antioxidants and Digestive enzymes. It's sweetened with Xylitol and Stevia.
Protein 22 grams, Calories 1300 -

I have a digestive disorder that limits what I can eat. When it's acting up I have trouble getting enough protein and calories so I need to supplement with something my body won't reject. I can't have whey protein because the casein in it trashes out my digestive system, so I have to use a vegetable protein blend. I blend it with almond milk for calcium and frozen fruit for sweetness. It's very soothing and it contains all the essential amino acids. Since it's unsweetened and unflavored, it doesn't have a bunch of funky stuff in it.
I use unsweetened Warrior Blend from Sunwarrior - pea, hemp, and cranberry proteins. Love it! :drinker:0 -
Muscle Pharm Combat Cookies and Cream .. by far one of the best, Have tried a few of the wal marts, the GNC brand, the Optimum Nutrion, Muscle Pharm is my favorite.
have to agree muscle pharm Combat Powder is by FAR the best taste protein i tryed ... tryed around 8 different brand so far and wont try any others.0 -
THE BEST --->>>
The best for taste, protein, and bang for your buck is CYTOSPORT (same folks that make Muscle Milk) available from Costco.
@ 6lbs for $48 --- 27 grams of Protein per scoop (1 serving), 75 servings per 6lb bag, also now in a 4lb bag.
That's less that 75 cents per serving including tax, you can't beat it!
Find it the in database: Costco/ Crio Sport 100% Whey Protein - Vanilla Shake
You can mix fruits, peanut butter, almond butter, etc to get different flavors, so it's better in that respect than the chocolate flavor.0
