Garden of Life Organic Vegan Protein Powder with Probiotics, BCAAs, NSF Certified, Gluten Free & Sport, Non GMO, Sport Protein Powder, 19 Servings, Chocolate

I really like this because it is organic, vegan, and has the BCAA's Branched Chain Amino Acids. BCAA powder by itself tastes so nasty. This tastes just fine. To avoid getting too much protein I use one scoop (half a serving) of this plus one scoop of Spiru Tein unsweetened or Happy Viking, plus a type 2 collagen and a magnesium supplement. I strength train and do other strenuous exercise for pain management and to protect my bones from falls. I'm not a doctor but going by how I feel this regimen helps me a lot. The only thing that bothers me is the huge plastic container. At least it is recyclable I guess.

If it's shaken in a right way it turns out to be so very good and I like the taste. I love staying full all day until dinner it really satisfied, I would love to continue to keep purchasing it. And thank you for it being organic. God Bless.

The flavor is rich and not too sweet, and it mixes well with water or almond milk. It’s easy to digest, and I love that it’s organic, vegan, and free of dairy and gluten. Perfect for post-workout recovery since it has a good amount of protein and amino acids. The texture is smooth compared to other plant-based proteins I’ve tried, and it doesn’t leave a chalky aftertaste. I also appreciate that it has probiotics included, which is a nice bonus for digestion. Overall, it’s a high-quality product that I’ll keep buying. Totally worth the price!

This product is NOT the same anymore. The quality has gone downhill badly. When I blend it, it doesn’t mix at all—it just settles at the bottom and stays there. It’s impossible to drink. The taste is also awful. The flavor is completely different and honestly disgusting. I’ve used this shake before, so this is not user error. Save your money—whatever they changed ruined the product.

Overall, I would give this a 4.5* out of 5* rating. Nutrients/Ingredients : 5*, Per 2 scoop serving, more protein than the Orgain I was using previously (21g/2scoops.) It has a good amino acid content already in the protein, so that means you don't need a separate supplement for BCAAs, also it has glutamine and probiotics. TASTE: 5* I have not tried the vanilla, but, all chocolate proteins will taste different in my experience. This does taste a little different/less chocolaty than the Orgain chocolate. It still tastes good to me, and I have no complaints on the taste. TEXTURE: 4* It is a little bit "grainy" or "chalky" compared to all the other plant proteins I have tried. It doesn't mix very well with natural peanut butter powder. I used to mix the chocolate fudge Orgain with 2 scoops protein powder and 1 scoop natural peanut butter powder, and it mixed great, nice and smooth. When I tried to mix this with the peanut butter powder, it made it a bit more chalky in consistency, and not as smooth or easy do drink. This is a bit thick (not a complaint, just FYI) compared to others even when mixed with the same amount of water/almond milk. MIXING: 4* This is my only real complaint. I have mixed other plant proteins with water or almond milk in a 16 oz plastic shaker bottle without even using the shaker agitator. I could put other brands of plant protein on the bottom or top of the liquid and shake, and it would 100% mixed. This will stick, in small areas, to the bottom after shook when the protein powder is added before the liquid, even with the plastic agitator in the blender bottle. When added after the liquid is already in the shaker bottle I always have a little dry spot of powder right under the flip open lid on the blender bottle, even when using the agitator in the bottle. It seems to always have some small clumps in it which doesn't really bother me. Also, this seems to separate even within a few minutes after the bottle is stationary, requiring mixing again before drinking. Overall, I am very happy to have tried this! This eliminated the need for additional BCAA supplements, also it has glutamine, both aid in muscle recovery after workouts. As an added bonus this also has a probiotic blend in it. The only thing holding back a 5 star rating from me is the slightly hard to mix nature of this protein powder. The other small negative things can be overlooked by me because of all of the other benefits! I understand it's very hard to make anything 100% perfect, there are pros and cons to anything in life. I will be ordering more soon! P.S. I see the price goes up and down at least $15 for this in the same flavor. When I first ordered it, it was just over $21.xx, (which I is what I was paying for my previous protein, so I figured I'd give it a shot.) Then it went up to $38.xx, and is now back down to $20.xx. I'm not sure why the price fluctuates that greatly, I would happily pay $20-$21 for it, but I wouldn't want to constantly be buying it at almost 2x that price.

First things first; this product has a great taste AND texture! I've tried nearly 50 different vegan protien brands/products an this is by far the best. I use it every morning in my breakfast smoothy with great results. The quality ingredients of this Sport product digest well and don't have the chalky consistency that many other products do. I have mixed it with just water and it's decent. I've introduced several friends to this product and they have had similar feedback regarding digestion & taste The flavor is pretty good, they used to make a strawberry that was a lil odd- but chocolate is my go-to and the vanilla is also good Lastly is effectiveness- I'm vegan except for fish and eggs (Pescatarian) and have stomach issues with dairy. A balanced & diverse blend of protien sources includes: pea, navy beans, lentil, cranberry, and sprouted garbanzo. It's got a comprehensive Amino Acid complex as well! I've found most vegan products have a lot of sugar or sweeteners, this is mostly organic and digests well If your looking for vegan protien with great value (approx $2.²⁵ per serving), that provides a clean & balanced profile of protiens, w/out a bunch of sugar or fillers (gellan/acacia gum or similar) this is a great product I highly recommend!

Awesome flavor and allergy friendly! Not chalky and easy to mix.

Excellent quality and product received

No allergic reaction and body absorbs this protein very well.

great taste. clean veg protein tasting.

I bought two containers and unfortunately after few drinks i developed huge bladder pain and i wasn't able to pee normally. Very strange as i tried different plant based proteins and i felt always good about. Feels like my kidney don't like this so who knows what is inside of that product. 0 starts for me. I will go back to weight protein

Good product to meet your clean protein goals.
