Digestible!
I have never found a protein powder that didn’t blow me up like a puffer fish. The reviews said it was highly digestible and they weren’t wrong. I didn’t believe it until I tried it. If protein powders upset your stomach, like mine, this one might be for you.

Plastic Canister not Eco-Friendly
I like this protein powder for smoothies, but Garden of Life should offer this product and others in a more eco-friendly foil or paper packet as a refill, to avoid putting so many oversized plastic canisters into the waste stream. Flour and sugar come in paper bags, why can’t protein powder?! A large percentage of plastic, even if put in the recycling bin, never gets recycled, and often ends up in the ocean or dumped in landfills. Customers should pressure Garden of Life (and other manufacturers) to reduce plastic packaging. I’ve messaged Garden of Life directly via their website, but they never respond to this issue.

Best protein
I have been using this protein for a very long time. Ive used others and i keep coming back to this. The taste is not terrible but at the beginning it took me some getting used to. I personally use almond milk, cinnamon, sometimes i make protein coffee. Others i make a smoothie with it

Contains erythritol and guar gum
I was so excited when I read the item description. Finally I found a product that was made from “whole foods”, was in its healthy, raw state, and therefore compliant with my “lifestyle diet”. I glanced at the main ingredients and was impressed. I had it delivered overnight.Now, I keep pretty up to date with nutritional science. And there’s a LOT of research out there that contradicts each other. However, one big piece of news that shook the health food community was the bad news about erythritol. Erythritol is used at concentrations at least 1,000 times the natural levels found in food or our bodies. This is what Mayo Clinic has to say:”A 2021 study examined people who consumed erythritol or a similar sugar alcohol, xylitol. The results found that ingesting erythritol as a sugar substitute caused a spike in blood levels and increased the stickiness of the volunteers’ platelets. Platelets help the blood to clot if we cut ourselves, but if they are sticky, the risk of blood clots in the body increases, raising our risk of heart attack, stroke or other vascular issues.”I am surprised that a company like Garden of Life would use such a sweetener in their protein powder. Same with guar gum. I understand that it makes one feel fuller (since it has 8 times the thickening ability of cornstarch), and adds fiber while being low in calories, but I thought I bought a completely raw, relatively lightly processed product. The label “raw” really only applies to the protein part of this product, NOT the entire product. I probably shouldn’t have simply trusted and should have read the entire list of ingredients (or should have anticipated that even the “good” companies use “deceptive” yet smart marketing…)I bought two containers – and will now have to send them back.
