Sports Research Whey Protein Isolate – Sports Nutrition Protein Powder 25g per Scoop – 2lb Bag Whey Protein – Dutch Chocolate Bulk Protein Powder, 25 Servings

Sports Research Whey Protein powder very highly recommended
As another reviewer noted, mixes easily with water without clumping. I appreciate the added amino acids, including L-Leucine which decreases appetite, potassium, iron, calcium and Vit D3. The Dutch Chocolate flavor is delicious. I like the sturdy packaging that eliminates the problem of disposing heavy duty gallon size plastic jars in which other protein products I’ve tried are shipped. This gluten free product has no carageenan seaweed thickener/emulsifier/preservative that irritates my digestive tract. 60 scoops per bag. I’m blending 1 scoop with 12 oz water, 2 T whipping cream, and 4 ice cubes. 16 fats, 4 net carbs, 25 prot. An affordable, easily stored, long-lived addition to food storage supplies.

Very rich (sweet) flavor in a large scoop; mixes well and Informed Sport tested
This is the first time I’ve tried this powder as I’ve been looking for one I like at a reasonable cost with good protein:calorie ratio. With protein being about 4cal/g, that means this is around 67% calories from protein per scoop (100/150). Much of the extra calories come from the added MCTs since fats are close to 9cal/g, but in the limited research I’ve read, the benefits of MCTs are unclear. That said, this powder is DEFINITELY rich chocolate—it mixes thick in milk (which I then pour coffee into), almost like a shake, and is about as sweet as hot chocolate made by dissolving a chocolate bar instead of using powdered mix. The flavor is good, but many will definitely find it too sweet. I use a handheld milk frother to mix mine and very rarely have any clumps unless the whole scoop dives in at one time: it is a LARGE scoop at 106cc and even my frother struggles to mix it all at once. I’ve included a comparison pic to Rival Whey’s scoop (67cc) and Optimum Nutrition Whey Isolate’s scoop (70cc) for reference.I really like the fact that this brand is transparent about being third party-tested through the Informed Sport process and it is displayed prominently on the packaging. Not every company does this step so it gives peace of mind that what is on the label is in the product: so many companies skip the is step because of costs, or if they do test, they’re secretive about who does the testing, what they test for, and what the results are and that makes me wonder if the contents actually match what’s on the label (studies have shown that some powders contain less than HALF of the claimed protein amounts). That’s not the case here, so even if this isn’t the BEST protein, the cost is reasonable (~$1 per serving when I bought it) and I definitely feel like I can trust what is in it. Honestly, the testing is why I rated it 4 stars instead of 3, because it was a little bit too sweet for me (though perfectly drinkable) and the MCTs probably contributed to the “bubble gut belches” I experienced for about 10 minutes after drinking it if I wasn’t drinking it in my coffee throughout the morning.I may buy it again in the future, but for now I’m sticking to isolates with better than 80% of their calories coming from protein.

Good purchase
I needed this powder after stomach surgery. It tastes good and easy to blend.

I was excited about this but then it was so sweet I couldn’t handle it. I tried it simply with water and also with yogurt … way to sweet for me and I know that the sweetener in this will eliminate the benefits of protein.

Only con is a very large scoop per serving. I like this protein powder and has added Leucine and Vitamin D3.
