(More customer reviews)I wish I knew the serving sizes before I purchased. This wasn't nearly as good as the quality versions of isopure. My own fault fir not researching. Too many scoops per serving make it nasty.I got what I paid for.

Product Description:
All impurities have been removed to provide you with a great tasting, lactose-free, fat-free, glutamine enriched state-of-the-art meal replacement drink mix. Our protein source is clearly identified as 100% pure ion exchange whey protein isolate. We didn't try to confuse you by listing a protein blend that doesn't tell you how much of the product is superior whey protein isolate and how much is caseinate or some other inferior protein. Isopure contains only 1 gram of sugar and is instantized so it can be taken anywhere and mixed with a spoon. It is rich in branched chain amino acids (BCAAs) and glutamine.

The Ultimate Life - Ultimate Meal, The, 400 g powder Review

(More customer reviews)I started taking this product when I was pregnant and extremely health conscious. It is the best meal replacement out there, and from the very beginning I could feel the difference in my health. Of course, the taste is far from delicious, but after my initial reaction (gag) I now like it, even crave it in the mornings. (I had to make myself like V8 to, and this is healthier.) The price is a little steep at $55, but it is much better on Amazon then if you bought it form the store ($70+ tax) and it is worth every penny of it. It is full of vitamins, healthy grains and vegan protein. It will fill you up (unlike other green drinks) so you eat less. While it does not claim to be a weight loss product, it actually helped me lose 20 pounds by helping me stop my cravings. Try it, you will not regret it!

(More customer reviews)I have been using this Nature's Plus ENERGY mix for years.I do not tolerate whey protein very well and this is low in calories, zero fat, and added nutrients, enzymes and herbs.All that and it has a neutral flavor!I make with natural pineapple, apple or grape juice, and a mixture of fruit.The result is a wonderful NATURAL tasting shake.The only downside is because its soy and not whey, you will need to use a blender.

Clif Builder's Bar, Protein Bar, 2.4-Ounce Bars Review

(More customer reviews)Plain and simple, these Builder's Bars are one of the best tasting protein bars you can get. They are crispy and chewy at the same time and they aren't super sweet like a candy bar. And at 2.4 ounces a piece they are large enough and filling enough to be a meal replacement.
And the one thing that I really like is that when I read the ingredients, I actually know what the stuff is! Nothing weird or unnatural, just real ingredients!
Out of the four flavors available (Chocolate Mint, Peanut Butter, Chocolate, Cookies `n Cream) I prefer the Chocolate Mint and Peanut Butter, mainly because they taste even less like a protein bar. I'm not saying the plain Chocolate and Cookies 'n Cream are bad tasting, just that I prefer the taste of the Chocolate Mint and Peanut Butter ones (they are all really tasty).
These are just awesome, 100% natural, high protein, real ingredients, and they taste great! I just love them!
A bit of product info:
Vanilla Almond: 39% organic ingredients
Chocolate Mint: 32% organic ingredients
Chocolate: 33% organic ingredients
Cookies `n Cream: 35% organic ingredients
Peanut Butter: 35% organic ingredients
Side note:
Do not buy these expired (like on eBay or in-store)! Since these bars do not contain any preservatives they can loose their freshness and vitamin potency quickly and can develop a simple bread mold. It is recommended that they be eaten within a month of their sell by date (they are guaranteed to be fresh one month passed the sell by date printed on the wrapper).
EDIT: I just bought myself a couple of boxes of the of the new Vanilla Almond flavor and oh my they are mighty tasty. Sometimes you just don't want a chocolate protein bar and these fit the bill perfectly! And just like the other Builder Bars they are not super sweet, just a perfect balance. That and they contain more organic ingredients then the other Builder Bars (39%).
If chocolate is not your pleasure try the Vanilla Almond bars, you will not be disappointed!

If you want to get more protein in your diet, but you don't want to sacrifice the benefits of all-natural ingredients or great taste, then the Clif Builder's Bar is the perfect choice for you. With 20 grams of 100% natural protein from soy and nuts, and with no trans fats or hydrogenated oils, this dipped double-decker bar is delicious and nutritious. When it's chocolate and protein you need, this is the bar you want.
Protein: The Immune System Booster
Nobody likes to have their training derailed because of a cold, flu, or fatigue. Because protein is essential for producing red blood cells and antibodies that resist infection, Clif Builder's Bars can help you get the amount of protein you need to stay in the game.
About Clif Bar & Company: Sustaining People and the Environment
Clif Bar & Company is committed to creating delicious, organic foods that are healthy for people and the planet. Clif knows that growing a healthy community, taking care of employees, and improving the environment are the only ways to operate a healthy, honest business.

Natural Protein? Naturally!
Protein comes from both plants and animals, but not all protein is created equally. The protein found in Clif Builder's Bars is free of antibiotics, hormones and genetic modifications, giving you a valuable investment in your total body health.
So while an extra lean top sirloin steak or an organic chicken breast are great sources of protein, it's not always convenient to throw those in your briefcase or gym bag. That's why it's helpful to have a Clif Builder's Bar on hand as a portable source of great-tasting natural protein that has ingredients you know and trust.
Make Protein Work Harder For You
Staying healthy boils down to two simple ingredients: regular exercise and proper nutrition. Being active and eating healthy foods are no-brainers, but all too often people overlook the importance of getting enough protein in their diets. Virtually every part of your body needs protein to stay healthy, and when you work out, you especially need protein because your body is breaking down and repairing tissue.
The best time to grab a Clif Builder's Bar is within 30 minutes of completing a workout or competition--the protein helps your muscles recover quickly and gets you ready for the next training session. More protein also helps your body repair cuts, wounds, strains, stress fractures, broken bones, and other problems, which shortens the time you'll be on the sideline.
Build Your Brain with Clif Builder's
Have a big meeting coming up? Need to write a report? Grab a Clif Builder's Bar and get the brain boost you need to make it through. The protein in the bar helps keep your brain working properly. Brain cells talk to each other via messengers that are made up of amino acids, the building blocks of protein. Therefore, what you eat affects which neurons will be firing, and that in turn affects whether you'll feel energized or sluggish. Try other flavors

100% Whey Protein - Gold Standard (Natural) Review

Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I'm a woman and not a body builder, but I love this protein powder for a super quick breakfast or an evening snack.It gives you clean burning energy, so to speak, without the blood sugar crash of candy bars or other less than optimal snack products.It dissolves well with some vigorous shaking in any sealed container--I just use an ordinary bowl-shaped tupperware container.
It contains no fructose, and is barely sweetened with stevia extract.That's fine because I can add my own sources of sweetness in the form of organic soy milk that I buy in bulk from Costco.I had my family try it and they couldn't tell this apart from ordinary ovaltine or chocolate soy milk.Even if you're using water or milk, unless you're hyper vigilant about sugar intake, adding a bit of your own sweetener (I hate artificial sweeteners, I'd rather add raw, real sugar) would still bring your sugar intake far below most of those other "protein shake" products out in the market while still delivering a dose of high quality protein (whey is superior to all other sources of popularly available protein powders according to the sources I've researched).

The Bigger Picture of Whey
Whey Protein Isolates are 90% pure protein by weight. They are the purest and most expensive form of whey protein that exists. That's why they are the first ingredients you read on the 100% Natural Whey Gold Standard label. By using whey protein isolates as our primary protein source, we are able to pack 24 grams of the purest, muscle building protein per serving, and a lot less of the fat, cholesterol, lactose, and other stuff you can do without. 100% Natural Whey Gold Standard is also free of artificial flavors, colors, and sweeteners. There is no question this is the standard by which other whey proteins are measured.* Picture may be of different size or flavor

Premier Protein - High Protein Ready To Drink Shakes, 18-11oz shakes Review

Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I drink one of these after coming home from the gym. They're filling and quite satisfying and I don't feel the need to eat anything else. They're best ice cold although the instructions say not to freeze them, so I stick a cold one from the fridge in to the freezer for just a few minutes as soon as I get home, and by the time I've changed out of my sweaty work-out clothes, it's really ice cold without actually being frozen.
160 calories - 30 from fat; total fat 3 grams; 5 grams carbs; 1 gram sugar; 3 grams fiber; 30 grams protein; 330 mg sodium; 680 mg potassium; no high fructose corn syrup. However, FYI, this does contain some calcium caseinate just in case you are not in favor of using calcium caseinate as a protein source.
I buy the chocolate flavor which is quite yummy, not artificial tasting and tastes like thick, chocolate milk - especially when ice cold as mentioned above. I've never tried any other flavors except the chocolate.
This price and shipping seem very expensive, but I buy them at one of the membership big-box warehouse type places (that begins with the letter "C") for a much better and more reasonable price.
