Soy Protein Isolate

Firstly, I am severely lactose intolerant and this means I'm limited to what protein I can have, so I thought that I'd be stuck with really gross options. I've tried so many, and was suffering (in silence) about how disgusting they were. Then I found MyProtein after some searching and took a risk by trying the Smooth Chocolate and Strawberry Cream. O M G! I have double scoops for meal replacement and protein loading for circuits, dancing, PiYo, ChaLean Extreme, P90X and weight management. Two scoops is the important bit for me because most protein doesn't mix well, even with a blender. I load my shaker, then with very low expectancies give it a thoroughly good mixing testing with the Chocolate first...it mixed, and no blender! Next came the taste...it was good! And I mean, really good, definite chocolate tastes, nutty aroma, went down really easily sipping it, no nasty after-taste either! The next day, I had a chocolate one in the blender, fantastic. Really smooth and creamy, take care with the amount of milk (I use Lactofree blue), not enough and it's not nice, but get your amount right, memorise it and keep to it. I eat a main meal at lunchtime, then in the evening I tried out the Strawberry Cream, used a shaker, mixed two scoops and O M G! It's even nicer than the Chocolate Smooth!!! How is this possible? Now, I mix one scoop of Strawberry with one Scoop of Chocolate for ultimate NOMZ!! The protein content is high, not as high as the unflavoured but I don't want to have to add fruit to make it taste nice, it would defeat the object of low carb and high protein. For anyone with a need to have Soya protein, this is the nicest I have ever tasted and I've already ordered my second set! Mix with shakers or blenders, add in fruit, I'd say blueberries, put in in cake mix for protein sponges, Lactofree milk, Soya milk, and Almond milk.

I've used this product for several years now and am highly satisfied. It is easy to digest and a truly excellent source of protein in my diet - which as an 80 year-old vegetarian - is of great importance to me! It is always delivered quickly and in good packaging.

First off, I am not actually milk, lactose or whey intolerant. I take this excellent protein supplement simply because of its amazing value and complete amino acid profile. It is significantly cheaper than the whey product alternative which very important to me as I am on a very restricted budget. It is also easy on the digestion with absolutely no side effects whatsover and is really helping my gains - it's even improving my beard growth! Additionally, I had been using a competitors Soy Protein Isolate as it was slightly cheaper but after I received a discount code from MyProtein, I decided to try their product. In short, it is far superior in both taste and mixability being much smoother in consistency when mixed with no lumps and less frothing. Sure, you've got to get jiggy with the shaker when mixing but hey, if you can do the weights or other exercise then shaking it up shouldn't be a problem. I will now only use the MyProtein product which, even without flavouring, tastes just fine to me but then I ain't a fussy Mummy's boy.

I bought the strawberries & cream flavour and have previously bought soy protein powders and know they aren't as liquidy as whey - they tend to be rather thick and it can feel off-putting if you try to have it as a drink. I made it first using the recommended amount of water and my first thoughts were that the the taste was great, albeit rather sweet, and that it was really, really filling as a drink, leaving me feel rather bloated. However, I now have this as a guilt-free, high protein pudding in the evening when my sweet cravings kick in after dinner. I fill the blender with about 7-10cm (no more) of water first (this is important otherwise it's impossible to clean it afterwards!), then add one & a quarter scoops of the powder. Blend it, and if it's too thick to even come out of the blender, add a teeny bit of water and blend again. I then quickly empty it into a v.small bowl/dish and put it in the fridge to 'set'. I then have it after dinner as a pudding, eating it like Angel Delight (as another reviewer said). I sometimes add oats as a crunchy topping or cinammon, or blend it with some cacao powder for added magnesium. As a low calorie pudding it's delicious - might try the chocolate one next!

a spoon as the perfect high protein, low calorie after-dinner pudding

Tastes nice, mixes well with soya or coconut milk. With almond it becomes so thick you need a spoon to eat it. Would highly recommend

I purchased this as I'm trying to consume less dairy products. In comparison to the Impact Whey Protein of the same flavour (Strawberry cream) this stuff is awful.... does not mix at all well with water or almond milk. It's like cement. It's so clumpy and it looks like plaster! I will not be consuming any more of this product after just 2 servings. VILE!

Bought this for it's higher protein content. Found mixing the powder with a small amount of liquid first and letting it settle slighty before adding the rest of the liquid worked well. Combining it all together at once resulted in some horrendous lumpy and ridiculously frothy mess. I add coffee to mine, which helps make it more palatable.

I got strawberry cream and I hated it at first, it does not mix well with water and I couldn't get it to mix well (lumpy). It seems to mix well with fat as I got the best result mixing with coconut milk (although soy milk works too) The taste, when mixed with plant-milk, is really good. To mix I add the powder to the milk, shake and then add water until I get the right consistency. This way I don't get any lumps and the shake is creamy. It's on the thicker side, which I like as I use it to replace my breakfast when cutting.

I bought these products the other day as I have trouble with milk. I bought 1kg of Strawberry and 1kg choc smooth. The chocolate is ok, I have it mixed with 400ml water as it was way too thick with the recommended ammount, and I also blend in a banana to help with the taste. It tastes find when blended. The strawberry has been not so great to me. When you mix in a shaker it goes to half foam, half drink... I'm not sure why, and it makes is hard to drink, and the texture and flavour is not great. I think I'll stick to the chocolate when I've run out this time. Its good for the money and for the dietary requirements I have.

Struggled with a dairy allergy/intolerance for years. Find the higher grade protein brands and those that claim to be lactose better for my stomach and breathing problems, but always affect me. Thought I'd give this a try, wasn't sure what to expect. Tastes great, mixes well. Only downside I've found is its a little foamy and takes quite a while to settle down. Would like to see the product available in a larger quantity as well.
