NOW Foods Sports Nutrition, Soy Protein Isolate 20 g, 0 Carbs, Unflavored Powder, 2-Pound

I have used many protein powders. I shied away from Soy for a while because of the negative hype, but I wanted to find some cheaper protein alternatives, and I read up on soy again. Turns out the isolate, non-GMO varieties avoid any of these issues. I'm back on board the soy protein train. The good: This is plain, unadulterated, non-GMO soy protein isolate, which means the things that you're scared will make you grow man-boobs or infect you with Mansantism are not present. It's one of the smoother and finer powders I've seen, maybe the smoothest soy powder, and it smells neutral. The bad: There really is none. This is cheap but doesn't appear cheaply made. It's a sturdy container. The complicated: The only protein powders that are easier to mix are whey, beef, and egg. Beef and egg are much more expensive. Soy is good for a quick absorption and is also more moderately absorbed, but whey is quicker. You do not want to use ANY protein powder unadulterated. they just don't taste good. This doesn't taste bad (some taste bad. Pea protein and hemp sometimes smell and taste bad.) You also don't want to buy a pre-mixed, flavored protein powder, because just about every one of them uses squirrely, suspect ingredients. It's best to get an unadulterated mix like this one. I am now getting this, high fiber hemp, pumpkin seed protein, and collagen peptides and mixing them all together. 2 parts soy and 1 part each of the other. I take a big container and mix about 4 cups of soy with 2 cups each of hemp, pumpkin, and collagen. I usually mix it with a homemade green powder, coconut oil, lemon juice, stevia, and sometimes additional fruits and veggies or roots. I also sometimes mix it with cocoa powder, stevia, vanilla, and coconut oil. The consistency and taste are great. The verdict: I'm not going to use any other soy product. This mixes well, tastes fine, and comes at a very good price. If you're looking for a really fast acting protein, nothing beats whey for the price, but soy has more nutrtional properties and not as many people have allergy or tolerance issues with it. Besides, if you have some protein before your work out, the protein is already available in your system.

I'm glad to have found this unflavored, unsweetened pure plant-based protein powder. I am vegetarian, and make an effort to be vegan whenever possible, and that can make it hard to get enough protein without eating too much carbs. I tried this mixed-in with another vegan protein powder that is way too overly sweetened with monk fruit and stevia and tastes absolutely terrible. This simple soy protein powder cuts the sweetness, tones-down the bitter acrid paint thinner flavors of stevia and monk fruit, and makes the other brand vegan powder much more palatable and tasty. I have tried it on its own, mixed in dark chocolate almond milk and that's pretty good too. I haven't tried any other recipe yet, but I have other plant milks and flavoring products that I can try, and I'm sure it will be just as good, going to try it next with some berries blended in. The only one thing bad I will say about this soy protein powder is that it doesn't mix into your liquids very easily. You have to either put it in the blender, or put it in a sealed jar and shake the heck out of it for a few minutes. If you don't, you will have little encapsulated pellets of undissolved powder in your drink, and they might pop open in your mouth and you could inhale the powder into your trachea and lungs, which is pretty unpleasant. Just be careful and watch out for that.

I actually prefer the taste of soy over whey and this isolate is a good protein product. It has a little more mealy texture than whey but it mixes well and any clumps are easily stirred out. I usually mix it in a solo cup with almond milk and 1/2 tsp psyllium for fiber. It is pure non-GMO soy, with no sweeteners or additives such as maltodextrin. Good value also.

It’s basic pea protein. Exactly what it’s says. It’s does not completely dissolve. I use it for basic extra protein in my oatmeal without adding sugars. It’s a regular purchase.

This is my go-to protein powder. I love that it has zero added sweeteners or flavors and is purely protein. I've read that soy protein is comparable to whey protein, and soy protein is the more affordable option. If you compare this to the Now Sports Whey Protein Isolate, you get more servings per container with the Soy Protein Isolate for a better price. I usually combine it with Greek yogurt or kefir so I am getting a combination of high quality complete protein sources from both dairy as well as soy in each meal. I can subtly detect that the protein powder is there by a slight change in taste and texture to my yogurt and smoothies, but it's very mild.

This product is better than the previous brand that I ordered. Firstly it has no artificial sweetening taste that I experienced previously and easy to blend with pure milk using a shake-container.

can be added to other drink

It is exactly as expected, tasted like unsweetened soy milk. If you put the soy protein powder first without liquid, thr powder tents to get stuck. Recommended to put liquid first, then the powder. A little disappointment that it doesn't come with any measuring spoon.

これは「Soy Protein Isolate 2 lbs」についてのレビューです。 他のネットショップで2個1セットになりますが4970円(注:為替レートにより変動)とより安い店舗があります(送料500円)。「Now ソイプロテイン（高精製タイプ） 2個入り1セット」で検索してみて下さい。このページの商品は1個の値段です。 飲みにくいという声が上がっているようですが、個人的にはシェイカーでオレンジジュースに混ぜて飲んだところ飲みやすかったです。粉末が溶けにくいのが難点ですが、溶けないものはそのまま気にせずに飲んでいます。 (2022年追記)残念ながら、上記の検索で出てきていたオンラインショップ(vita9.com)は2022/4頃を最後にサイトが消滅してしまったようです。
