Yes, it’s on my short list. Thanks.

Edit - this is the one I ordered.


As did I. What do you mix it with? Or add it to?

Usually a micronutrient smoothie.

$34/kg at Amazon.

Bulk Supplements has a pretty good reputation.

For all these protein supplements you have to be careful to read the nutrition label to see what you're really getting, though.

E.g.: This product: A 30g serving isn't 30g of protein, it's 25g. If you want 30g of protein you need a 36g serving of product, which brings it to 28 servings/bag. That brings the cost/serving up from $1 to $1.20.

I recently acquired a pair BlendJet2 blenders on sale at Costco and a bag each of frozen mixed berries and blueberries. I put a heaping 1/3 cup of berries in 8 oz. of water, hit the blend button, add two scoops of ON Vanilla Ice Cream whey powder (~35g of protein) and a gram of Taurine powder, then pulse it five times or so. End up with a really tasty protein shake Smile

I think I'll order-up a bag of that Bulk Supplements whey and try the same thing. See how those turn out.

I suppose I'm of a little different mindset. I don't really care what grass-fed collagen protein/peptides it is (assuming clean ingredients) as long as I can get it relatively cheap, a la manager's special at Sprouts. I used Bulletproof CP, Sprouts grass-fed collagen, and recently picked up Orgain Collagen Peptides that includes superfood (similar to AG1). I mix that in a tumbler first thing. And will add collagen, a tablespoon in my morning coffee.

I found some Naturade Pea Protein ( again, good deal) and will add to full fat yogurt for a extra protein bump).

I'm also adding creatine to my regular routine.

Interestingly, our local thrift store has decent sporting goods section and walked away today with 4x5lbs 1" plates. They've been slowly adding up. So, one bar for curls, one for ohp, and one bar for dead lifts.
