> 3 dayI started using Biochem 100 percent Whey Protein while recovering from bone graft surgery. I had read that whey protein can be a good source of lactoferrin and that lactoferrin speeds bone healing, so I have been adding this to a smoothie or shake twice a day. An added benefit I did not expect is that the insomnia I have been struggling with for years has disappeared. Maybe that is related to why a glass of warm milk before bed is an old, old folk remedy for sleeplessness. I cant do the warm milk thing because I am lactose intolerant, but I do seem to be tolerating this brand of whey protein. I chose this particular brand because it is: * from grass fed cows * sugar free (Natural flavor) * mild tasting * non-GMO * free of artificial hormones * soy-free * 99 percent lactose-free * cold processed * processed without chemicals * processed in a way that retains lactoferrin * low-carb, with less than 1 gram of carbohydrate per serving * low cholesterol, with only 10 grams per serving (just 3 percent of the Daily Value) * just four ingredients, without a bunch of extra unpronounceable stuff Besides the pure whey protein isolate, the only other ingredients are natural french vanilla flavor, sunflower lecithin, and xanthan gum. I think the combination of sunflower lecithin and xanthan gum is what makes this product mix up so smoothly and not be lumpy or grainy. I usually either shake it up by hand in a bottle or smoothie shaker with a powdered smoothie or shake mix (sweetened with stevia), or I whirl it in the blender if I am including fresh fruit. In either case I usually just use water for the liquid to keep the carbs down. And keep the calories down, too. Its pretty filling, even though it is just a drink, so it is helping me maintain a healthy weight. The actual product is very high quality. The one thing I would change is the packaging, which is not readily recyclable. It comes in a cardboard can with a metallic paper lining, metal bottom, laminated metal/plastic pull-off inner seal, and an outer plastic resealable lid. I would prefer packaging that is 100 percent recyclable.

> 3 dayAfter reading good reviews i decided to buy this. One thing i noticed it the caninster is a little small (7L) but it comes about 80% full. The flavor is super unique and it doesnt leave that unplesany whey aftertaste in your mouth. It satisfies hungrr instantly as well. I used a gnc shaker cup to mix it and it had no issues dissolving. Most sugar free shakes that are this healthy are probably going to be sweetened with a disgusting artificial sweetner, not this one because the 3rd ingredient is coconut oil. How smart to use coconut oil! I use this as for pre/post workout as it contains 20g of protein. Its 99% lactose free (wow) and it has tons of amino acids. The flavor is terrific its just biting into a coconut chew. You can easily blend it with milk in a blender and add fruit and it would taste even better. So glad i made this purchase!

> 3 dayI have used this product for many years because of the clean ingredients, the flavor, barely any carbs, and the convenience of it for making great smoothies. I recently tried another name brand companys product and was disappointed in an aftertaste...so Im back to stay with this product because it really does it all for me.

17-11-2024I feel like this is all anyone should be looking for in a post-workout protein mix its the only one ive found that isnt full of fake sugar or synthetic enhancement chemicals that some goon who put Dr. in front of his name liberally tosses in and puts a massive markup on even though no one knows what any of that stuff does, it just looks good on the shiny foil sticker this powder is clean, simple, and has helped me get results...the powder is VERY fine so it mixes well, and i highly recommend this Natural flavor that has a pleasant faint sweetness...be careful if you find this stuff at the store to make sure its the natural flavor, because the packaging on the super gross vanilla flavor looks exactly the same...might as well just buy it here since Amazon is the cheapest anyway
