Review: Great-tasting plant protein with solid nutrition - This plant-based protein powder is excellent. It mixes smoothly, tastes good, and doesn’t have that gritty texture some plant proteins have. It’s easy on the stomach and works well both post-workout and as a daily protein boost. I like that it provides a solid amount of protein per serving while still being vegan-friendly. It keeps me feeling full and supports recovery without bloating. The flavor is balanced—not too sweet—and easy to blend with water, almond milk, or smoothies. High-quality ingredients from a brand I trust. Definitely one of the better plant protein options out there.
Review: My go-to protein! - My go-to! I have in subscribe and save. Taste great, clean and good quality compared to other proteins, it’s filling, especially when mixed with peanut butter, almond milk and banana (and ice). Highly recommend if you’re looking for protein that you won’t get sick of using.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tastes good and dissolves well.

I cannot take whey protein because it gives me an allergic reaction so I needed to look for an alternative. I tried this product and I am satisfied with it so far. It tastes good with only water and it dissolves well.
