NOW Foods Sports Nutrition, Whey Protein Concentrate, 24 G With BCAAs, Unflavored Powder, 5-Pound

Dissolves smoothly in juices, coffee, yogurt. No after taste, grittiness, clumping or extra sweetness. I prefer to add my own cocoa, or fruit for flavor.

This protein powder is a fantastic value for its quality and quantity. Whey protein is highly beneficial compared to other protein sources due to its superior bioavailability, meaning your body absorbs and uses it more effectively. It’s also rich in essential amino acids and BCAAs, making it ideal for muscle recovery, growth, and overall healthThis unflavored option is a standout—it’s clean, with no added junk, fillers, or artificial sweeteners, giving you the flexibility to mix it with any beverage or recipe. Plus, the cost-effectiveness of this 5-pound tub is unbeatable for those who prioritize quality without breaking the bank

I don't mind the flavor of this--my gf says is gritty and doesn't taste good. Good for people who just want protein and don't mind the texture.

The taste is fine. I like that it doesn't have any sweetness. It is less east to dissolve that I would hope when just using a spoon to stir, but is fine in a blender. Have not tried a shaker cup. I think the isolate version might dissolve a bit more easily and has 1 extra gram of protein per serving, but for me this version is a better value.

Fast delivery, as described, love it, will order again.

Considering that I drink a protein shake every day and am on a budget this is the perfect product.It has no artificial flavors or sugars and can be mixed into any liquid base.I've been buying this for years

I've ordered this product for a few years with good results. The current product, however, is proving to be harder to mix than was the case with previous purchases. I'm using it in the same way as always--mixing it with oatmeal and milk--but the NOW protein powder is hard to mix beyond a gummy state. Not sure if the formula has changed or what the reason is. I'll try a different manufacturer to see if the results are better.

I just discovered this product after having used NOW Whey Protein Isolate. It turns out, this product is denser than the isolate. 5 lbs of protein concentrate has 69 one-ounce servings whereas 5 lbs of the isolate has 82 one-ounce servings. so, pound for pound the less expensive concentrate is 72% the price of the protein isolate, but each serving is 84% the price of the isolate. Protein Concentrate is roughly 64 cents and the Isolate is roughly 75 cents. So, basically $3 difference each month between them, with one serving a day.The Isolate is a little easier going down. This lesser expensive form has more of a powdered milk taste, whereas the isolate form is less so. That being said, I've discovered adding a dropperful of almond extract masks that powdered milk taste (without needing to add sugar.) I actually had done that for a while with the isolate form, but got to where I was used to the taste and didn't bother. Maybe that will be the case with this lesser expensive form. If I don't get used to the taste, I'll probably switch back to the isolate (as long as the price difference between servings remains low.)EDIT: I originally gave this 4 stars, but realized afterwards that I base that on a simple comparison with a similar product by the same company. Compared to protein supplement products overall, either of the these NOW unsweetened and unflavored protein supplements are great. They don't have a bunch of extra empty calories, are relatively palatable. I'd rather save those empty calories found in other products and have a REAL milkshake!!!
