NOW Sports Whey Protein Isolate Powder with BCAAs - Unflavored - 1.2 lb

Whey Protein isolate is supposed to be a good protein for us and easy for our body to break down and assimilate. I like this brand. It is a creamy addition to my protein drink.

This brand of protein powder is one I like because is mixes well and I like the unflavored since I can add flavoring if I want it. I use this for smoothies and extra protein to other things like baked goods .

I purchased this one as well as the Soy protein.... I am "lactose intolerant" and here are my observations, when compared to another product I use:Mix: it mixes relatively easy, but it clumps a little more than the other product (whey isolate from other vendor)Taste: Mostly tasteless, when I mix it with orange juice. It is less gritty than soy protein from same vendorHow it feels on my stomach: It gets digested relatively fast...I feel I can eat something within the hour...compared to soy protein, from which I feel full for about 2 hours. Also, this isolate appears to have more lactose than another whey isolate protein I use...this product makes me "gassy/bloated" if I take a full cup...the other product does not...so I mix half from this one and half from the other...they mix well and does not make me bloated....I usually take this protein after the workout in the eveningTaking off 1 star because it makes me feel bloated when taken alone...which tells me it has more lactose than another whey isolate I takeSolid 4 stars

I read all of the reviews before purchasing this item and it is exactly as described. You cannot taste the whey at all -- it tastes delicious, no matter what I mix it with. I had previously used Rice Protein and it did not have a good taste. The Whey Protein Isolate is priced very reasonably and does not cake or become lumpy. I just put in the blender with my fruit and almond milk and it blends right up into a wonderful smoothie -- no lumps --no aftertaste. I've already ordered more!

Tastes like doo lol just could not get it to mix right

I use the whey protein isolate in my morning coffee with MCT,collagen,inulin and cream. I froth the mix ture in a half cup of coffee and then fill it. I alsouse it in my high protein-high fiber, low carb baking. It mixes well in liquids well, so I add a scoop to soups and sauces, where I need extra protein.I think the colored container protects the product.

The nutritional profile for this protein is excellent; I love the BCAA content, low sodium and low cholesterol. It mixes easily in a smoothie or with a shaker bottle in ice cold water. Like most whey powders, it leave little clumps if you just stir it in a glass, but maybe you can stir it enough to overcome any little texture problem it might cause you, if you don't have a shaker bottle. Lots of reviews talked about a horrible taste/smell like "burnt plastic." I can see how people don't like the taste if you're just mixing it with water. There is a very mild taste of something that I can't really describe, but I don't notice it if I mix it in a fruit smoothie. I would probably prefer a chocolate flavor, and that's what I will try next time, even though the reviews on it liken it to some toxic chemical lol. I'm getting back in the gym, so I'll be drinking at least one protein shake a day. Quality, cost and ease of access on Amazon will make this my new go-to whey supplement!

I originally bought this product because it seemed quite pure and was what I was looking for. Unfortunately, it made me very nauseated almost to the point where I wanted to vomit. I contacted the seller right away and it was not helpful. He told me I had to check with my healthcare provider first before starting a product. Ridiculous answer. No way to predict in advance, an unexpected side effect! Sometimes these things are just not predictable. I would never purchase from this seller again.
