OWYN Only What You Need 32g Pro Elite Vanilla Flavored Protein Shake, 12 Ct

Enjoy the vanilla flavor immensely, and it didn’t taste like vitamins as some other protein drinks do. However, I found it extremely sweet and think I’ll make a smoothie out of it from now on to cut the sweetness with some oat milk or plain yogurt, other than that really enjoyed the product.

This saved me during my recent out of state conference attendance. I recently was diagnosed with Alpha-Gal, a lifelong meat and dairy allergy given to me by a tiny little tick bite. I have changed my diet at home but was determined to travel out of state and brought this product (32 g protein) along with a variety pack of the OWYN 20 g protein. The vanilla shake filled me up enough to go through to lunch while sticking to an Alpha-Gal safe diet. Taste is not so bad, the 20 g flavors are much better. I now am bringing a bottle with me to community events often held at restaurants and while I miss meat and dairy, this product has made life just that much more manageable.

I ordered this because of the high protein content, 32 grams per bottle. I've had other OWYN drinks prior. The 1st bottle I opened had a sludge-like gathering over and inside the bottle's mouth. As directed, I shook it vigorously for 30 seconds, with no change. I scooped the thickened stuff out and proceeded to drink from the bottle. There was a bit of an odd, maybe sour, taste, so I could only tolerate half the bottle. After 30 minutes, my stomach began to feel queasy, and as another 15-20 minutes passed, I had a completely upset stomach. I waited 4 days before attempting to have another bottle. Again, when I opened it, there was thick sludge in the bottle neck. Shaking still didn't help break it up. There is also a sour smell to the rest of the contents. While I was looking forward to enjoying these drinks and supplementing my protein intake, I cannot drink these as they are and am requesting a refund.

I’ve only tried the vanilla flavor and it tastes good. It isn’t sickening sweet and doesn’t upset my stomach. I appreciate its lactose free. It’s fairly expensive but so is a meal nowadays.

I order again and again. Pricey but for a fitness girl with dietary restrictions and a sensitive tummy who never gets enough protein in her diet these are 10/10. I do wish they had more flavors/it tasted better but it’s not bad at all when cold! I’ve had vanilla and chocolate and liked both! I am however not drinking them for the taste rather the health benefits.
