Opportuniteas Vanilla Grass Fed Whey Protein Isolate Powder, 1 lb

I have never used any protein powder in my life. The wheel of fortune for age rolls to 19xx. Anyway, my son was starting a marching band camp, and their daily burn is more than 5000 calories. On one precamp day, he almost collapsed after 3 hours and had to lay down for 4. No power to go through. With a 2-week camp 8-5 coming, I had to act and feed him like when he used to swim. I decided to incorporate this protein based on some breakfast recipes that would fuel him till lunch. I am very picky about ingredients in many things and I remember, if he ever got a protein smoothie after swimming at the gym, it tastes metallic and I hated it. I saw this is pure, has no stupid Stevia and mixes well. The flavor is gentle, I used it in protein sheet pan blueberry pancakes, banana mango strawberry smoothies (only used water, no milk) and apple muffins. I think the quality speaks of itself - he has been happier, resilient, powers through his band days and is sore but not weak. We all tried eating with him and none of us felt heavy bellies and there was no bloating. I think it is a stable item from now on.

To begin, I have been buying protein powders for decades (since 1992) and it's always been an expensive trial and error as high quality proteins (isolate and hydrolyzed) isn't cheap. To find a Grass Fed Isolate with no artificial sweeteners, no stevia, natural vanilla (I ordered vanilla) and uses natural cane sugar, and only has 4 ingredients, taste fantastic, is a real joy! It mixes easy with water and at the right ratio (2 scoops powder with 4-6 ounces of water) goes down refreshingly nice. I tried a competitor product that had the same ingredients (except they use a cheaper whey concentrate) and it tasted like liquid cardboard. This Grass Fed Isolate has a nice natural vanilla flavor that has just the right sweetness to it. I highly recommend this product even though it's pricey, you get what you pay for!

This is the best protein powder I’ve ever had! Simple ingredients, no stevia, monk fruit or artificial sweeteners. Love that it has cane sugar and that the protein is grass fed. It may seem pricey but it’s so worth it! I had it with some frozen berries and milk in a smoothie and it was delicious! The vanilla flavor is perfect. I will be keeping this as a staple in my home from now on!

This is my new go to whey protein. Ive been through maybe 100 different brands. This is very smooth, no digestive issues and it’s very effective at helping me hit my protein goals. Great mild taste, no chunks, no excessive foam. This is the gold standard. I love that is grass fed and they use organic cane sugar (not toxic artifical like most brands) for some slight sweeetness. Pure simple and very few ingredients. I also like the resealable bag packaging, I don’t ever want to see a plastic tub of anything for the rest of my life! Well worth the money to be able to truly enjoy something that is truly good for you.

Finally, a protein powder that I can tolerate. I've tried powders that had artificial sweeteners which tasted horrible. Or later, I learned that the powders were high in heavy metals and tasted like it. Up until this, one every protein powder I tried I couldn't stomach because of the terrible taste. I got the vanilla one. It has a very subtle vanilla flavor and is lightly sweet. It almost taste like nothing, which is a good thing. I put a scoop in my coffee and it dissolves nicely. I noticed that if I dump a scoop in the bottom and then pour my coffee on top, it gets gloopy. So you have to experiment on how to get it absorbed into whatever liquid/food you're using.

If you don't like sucrslose or Stevie for whatever reason (they taste disgusting to me), it's hard to find a good protein powder. They almost all contain sucralose or stevia. I have no problem with a powder that contains real sugar, and the pickings are slim for those. I like our more than the other clean, simple protein powders I've tried (including Naked which I stayed hating the taste and smell shortly after starting). I love this protein powder. Even though it is on the pricey side I have no problem buying it because it tastes good. I've tried a lot of powders, and this is the only one that I've stuck to (almost a year). It has good, clean ingredients and minimal sugar all of which I like and appreciate. I don't think I have any complaints. The consistency is good and the flavor is good, packaging is good, too. I like that it comes in a bag, so it's not taking up so much space even when the amount continues to decrease (unlike a jar). Never had an issue with the sealer anything. Best protein powder!

The vanilla is delicious. I blend it with almond milk and collagen powder. This is the only protein powder I can drink without painful stomach bloating. No artificial sugars or stevia so it’s safe for my sensitive SIBO stomach. Mixes great with a small travel blender.

I'm probably not the target for this product as I'm not trying to body build or workout. I have gastroparesis (paralyzed stomach) and not a lot of food options to eat at this point. It's very difficult for me to get enough protein every day and I'm glad I found this product. I can't have artificial or "natural" sugar OR soy. That eliminates 99% of protein powders. I like this one because it has just enough sugar to be okay. The vanilla flavor is very mild and I wish it was stronger. I mix it with about 4 ounces of whole milk. It doesn't mix great, but I don't think any protein powder does. I use a hand mixer or a blender to get the job done. Time will tell if It helps. I will try chocolate next time.

It was abit pricey but an awesome product
