Levels 100% Grass Fed Whey Protein Pure Chocolate Powder 2LB

I’ve tried quite a few whey protein powders over the years, and Levels Grass Fed Whey Protein has quickly become one of my favorites. Taste: The first thing I noticed was how good it tastes. It’s not overly sweet or artificial-tasting like a lot of protein powders out there. The flavor is smooth and natural, which makes it easy to drink consistently. Even just mixed with water, it’s enjoyable — and with milk or in a smoothie, it’s even better. Clean ingredients: One of the main reasons I chose this brand is the ingredient list. It’s refreshingly simple and clean. No artificial sweeteners, no unnecessary fillers — just straightforward whey protein sourced from grass-fed cows. If you care about what you’re putting into your body, this is a big plus. Mixability: It dissolves extremely well. I use a shaker bottle, and it blends quickly without clumping. No gritty texture, no chunks at the bottom. It also works great in a blender for smoothies and doesn’t foam up excessively. Performance & digestion: It’s easy on the stomach and doesn’t leave me feeling bloated, which has been an issue for me with other brands. It fits perfectly into my post-workout routine. If you’re looking for a whey protein that: Tastes good without being overly sweet Has clean, simple ingredients Mixes easily without clumps Is easy to digest This is a solid choice. Definitely something I’ll continue buying.

I was looking for a flavored whey concentrate protein that would be low carb/high protein from grass fed cows and not taste too sweet (chocolate version) that doesn't break the bank. It's pretty much impossible to find a flavored grass fed protein that is not sickly sweet (American customer preference maybe?) This protein is made of US grass fed cows and contains stevia, monk fruit, and sunflower lecithin. Each serving has 3g carbs and 24g protein. There are 30 servings in the tub, which comes half filled (anyone know why the companies do this??) OVERALL: Best grass-fed/clean chocolate flavor whey concentrate given the carb/protein/non-sweet taste/price ratio. Downsides: - You don't know where the cows come from or if there are any quality certifications. I have had trouble with American processed milk and not European/Australian/NZ milk in the past. So if you've had trouble with American milk, please be aware that this brand advertises the milk as US sourced. If you want non-US grass fed milk, I have found that Antler farms has whey isolate from New Zealand and Protein Factory has whey isolate and concentrate (non flavored) from New Zealand and Germany. These products look super clean and are on my list (they are also more expensive or unflavored, so I stared with this one). The Legion brand also has whey isolate from Irish grass fed cows, but the flavored versions contain more additives: maltodextrin, xantham gum, sunflower lecithin, stevia. I do not recommend the flavored Promix/Naked brands if you want to limit your sugar (see below.) YES, I HAVE SPENT TOO MUCH TIME RESEARCHING THIS. - This still has stevia and monk fruit as sweeteners. And sunflower lecithin. I wish it only had the cacao powder. As a result it tastes a bit like cheap milk chocolate (but anything is better than the tongue curdling sickly chemical sweetness of most other brands.) - Big tub. Can they please get rid of this? How bad is this for the planet, seriously. Grass fed cows and big plastic tubs!!! Siiiigh.... Upsides: - It's low sugar. Each serving has only 3g carbs and 24g protein. The Naked/Promix brands have nearly 8g carbs/sugar from coconut sugar in each serving of their flavored varieties. The daily recommended intake of sugar for women is 25g, so you can do the math! - So far, no bloating or tummy issues. - Mixes well with plain water in a shaker bottle. Does not clump and it is not chalky. It is also not soapy. - Taste: it does not taste chemical and is also not very sweet at all, so you can mix this with other things like coffee or bananas. The stronger part of the taste is the "cheap milk chocolate" rather than the sweetness. So it just depends on what you like. Don't expect a creamy rich delish chocolate tasting shake! If you do, you will not like this. But I challenge you to find a chocolate flavored whey with all the other benefits. If you find it, please leave a comment, I would love to try it.

The Levels brand protein powder is by far my favorite brand! Every flavor that I’ve tried tastes good and they blend really well. I like that there are minimal ingredients and no funky aftertastes. This is a great product to help me meet my protein goals!

Good product. Mixes well. No chalkiness. Only 4 stars due to taste. Not a bad flavor just not quite as expected.

We have a green smoothie almost every day. This is the protein powder we trust. We love that it's from cows that are grass fed and no artificial anything. And it tastes good too!
