Transparent Labs Grass-Fed Whey Protein Isolate - Naturally Flavored, Gluten Free Whey Protein Powder with 28g of Protein per Serving & 9 Amino Acids - 30 Servings, Milk Chocolate

Great product by transparent labs hands down. I have been using this before every workout for a few weeks now. The chocolate flavor is very palatable and even better if mixed with milk. It does have a bit of a difficult time mixing in and there’s usually some left undissolved no matter how long I mix it in but I find that that doesn’t bother me very much. I’ve also been noticing a big improvement in my energy levels and muscle growth. I’m finding myself to be less sore after my workouts allowing me to get back in the gym quicker. It is a bit pricey but it is worth the money to know it is clean ingredients with third party testing. Definitely will be buying again.

Here is my unpaid, unbiased review: Strengths: -The biggest strength is that TL goes out of its way to ensure and show that their protein is free of significant contaminants, which is something I was looking for. The Informed Protein and Informed Choice labels are good, but the real star of the show is the readily available CoAs which appears to be an unparalleled practice. I wish every brand had these. -28g of protein is very good. Many other “clean” brands I found have 24 or fewer grams. And you know it’s actual protein. -The texture is good, very smooth with minimal clumping. I have used both a shaker bottle and automatic blender bottle with similar results. -Chocolate flavor is decent, I’ve had slightly better but way worse. Reminds me a lot of Premier Protein’s chocolate flavor. Areas for improvement: -This is like picking out pimples on the face of a supermodel, but I believe NSF Certified for Sport and Informed Sport are both more stringent than Informed Choice. I’d like to see one of those make it on the label instead, even at the cost of being slightly pricier, but again, not a huge deal. -There’s also no typical amino acid profile I could find available on the website. Some other brands have this. It’s not something I pay attention to, but there’s someone out there who does, I’m sure. -For people who don’t like stevia or sunflower lecithin, those are in the flavored varieties. I couldn’t care less about these, though. -The flavor isn’t perfect - the balance between stevia and cocoa seems to lean a bit more towards the stevia side, but maybe that’s just me. Or else it’s because cocoa powder has to be minimal to minimize heavy metal contaminants. -It is a bit foamy at first after mixing, but quickly settles down after 1-2 minutes. But I cannot emphasize enough how nit-picky this is. Overall: great protein powder supplement, I plan to use this for the foreseeable future.

I chose the chocolate flavor from Transparent Labs, mainly because chocolate is my favorite. In terms of ingredients, this protein is really clean and high quality, which was the main reason I bought it. The taste is exactly what you expect from a whey protein - a classic protein taste. Honestly, I think it’s similar no matter which flavor you choose. I like that it’s very versatile. I use it in smoothies, pancakes, or just blend it with fruit. It mixes well and works great not only for shakes but also for cooking. Overall, if you’re looking for a clean protein with simple ingredients and a reliable taste, this one is a solid choice.

This is the absolute purest and best whey isolate protein that I have ever used, bar none. There is only one ingredient. No additives, no fillers, nothing but 100% pure whey protein isolate. Mixes like a dream. I use mine in yogurt mostly. I love the milk malted milk flavor. I haven't seen a clump in mine yet. i will continue to use this protein despite the fact that it seems a little pricey and despite the fact that it comes in a large container that only seems half filled when i open it...but in this case, the benefits to me far outweigh the minor annoyances I have mentioned here and i will always use it as long as it is available. I know such products are usually sold by weight so i should not be concerned about the size of the container. I have to be fair here. Basically this is the best protein supplement I have ever used.

I've tried different protein powders, but I really like this brand. The powder is very fine, so it blends and mixes easily. No clumps. I also like that it has a good amount of protein. Also has a really good taste.
