I have Alpha-Gal Syndrome so I'm very glad to have a non-mammal version of what my neurologist wants me to take.
I appreciate the healthy ingredients and find the flavor pleasant. It matters to me that the ingredients are non-GMO and vegan. I mix it in a fruit smoothie each morning. I have purchased the 5 pound cannister of this product twice now. Although the product comes in a plastic container, I hope the trade off of one larger container vs. 3 smaller ones and one-third the environmental impact of the shipping helps to offset the use of plastic. These containers can be used for a variety of purposes when they're empty, extending the use of the plastic product.
I have tried various vegan protein powders and this is by far the best! Best ingredients, no chalky taste and blends up smoothly. I also love the collegen builder as well. I have collagen before work out and pure protein after.
Love the strawberry lemonade flavors, it’s just sweet enough. Very refreshing
