Terrific vid. Short and to the point. I’m so sick of these you tubers who keep posting videos that are 15+ minutes, just to get to the point 🙄🙄🙄

Fair life protein shake was recently caught having high amounts of micro plastics per bottle.

I don't always get to sit and eat a lunch so I'm curious which one has the best "meal replacement" status to keep me going for at least 3 hrs in between sessions

[balyakam]

this was SO helpful!!! thank you! i’ll be trying these out asap 🤩

Looks like I got lucky. I tried Premier Protein read to drink shakes for my third brand and I have stuck to them for a decade. Their powder has completely different ingredients and I did not like it at all. It got disposed of.

Premier makes breakfast cereal. So if you want a quick 50g of protein premier cereal with a premier shake on top is great.

added sweeteners are a BIG NO for me! I would love to find a protein powder that doesn't add any kind of sugar nor sweetener in it and just let ME handle the sweetening part on my own to what ever I am making with it! Sweeteners upset my digestive system terribly! Or leave nasty aftertaste!

If trying to lose weight do you eat less protein or your regular amount, but cut back on carbs, sweets etc?

I got the fairlife 42g and they are SO gross. I can’t even finish one but I love chocolate milk

I use my VEGA Vegan Protein Powder as a breakfast smoothie once a week.

Any suggestions for weight gain protein powder that is lactose free?

[chyndb]

[preciousmcfadden]

Yes Thanks Cause I Don’t Like Bananas So Shakes Dont Do Justice For Me

[sammyocgirl]

none of them are good...sorry to be organic and grass fed or they have heavy metals and a bunch of junk

Apparently consuming too much protein can cause people to constantly wave their hands around when talking. 😊
