Promix Whey Protein

I love the vanilla flavor! I absolutely hate the taste of artificial sweeteners and I don't care if the shake is higher calorie. I searched high and low for a protein without artificial sweeteners and this is a great one!

Great Quality Protein Powder! I’ve been very happy with this protein powder. The vanilla flavor tastes great without being overly sweet, and it mixes smoothly with water or milk without clumping. The ingredients are clean, and it’s made from grass-fed whey, which I appreciate. It’s easy on my stomach and has become part of my daily routine after workouts. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a high-quality protein powder!

This was my favorite protein for quite some time, in fact I ordered a second batch before I finished the prior because a) I really loved the old formula, b) I’m dumb and I assumed a bad bag had slipped through, and that the next order would be fine. Unfortunately this was not the case and I believe promix has changed their formula. The vanilla flavor is non existent in the last two bags and the texture is completely off. Previously all my order where very fine almost dust like and mixed extremely well, the last two bags have been granular, mix poorly, and some how have a static charge that makes makes it both scatter and stick to everything. Taste and texture now similar to flavorless sawdust, I’m unsure if it’s actually even protein it’s so drastically different to prior orders. Very disappointed, have to search for a new brand.

I have bought the Vanilla, Raw Chocolate, and Peanut Butter flavors, and I must say I love them all. I had been using Less Naked Whey (Chocolate first, then Strawberry). I liked Less Naked just because of the purity of ingredients (no artificial sweeteners, gums, etc.). Because I have Crohn's Disease, I am sensitive to a lot of processed foods, particularly food additives. I didn't notice any issues with the Less Naked Whey, but it never mixed well (unfortunate "side effect" of no gum/emulsifier additives), and I wanted to try something new. Enter Promix. I bought the vanilla, and it mixed very well -- I just use a shaker with water post workouts -- and started incorporating it into more foods like smoothies, banana-based "ice creams," oatmeal, etc. It has a very pleasant vanilla taste with no aftertaste. The sunflower lecithin is probably the best emulsifier for any GI issues you might have and helps to keep the product in suspension. I am not a dietitian -- I am just providing my personal experience with it; you can investigate sunflower lecithin and other emulsifiers for yourself. So, I have since bought 5lb tubs of raw chocolate and peanut butter as well. All taste great, and there are only slight variations in calories, all from different amounts of fats. You will also get slightly different amino acid amounts depending on the flavor. If you are interested, you can check the labels to see if that might impact your decision. It's just protein; so, it's not a magic button -- you still have to put the effort into your workout, but it helps to supplement your diet if you are trying to increase your protein consumption.

Great ingredients. Kind of tastes cheesy though.

So great to find a protein powder that’s not in one of those big plastic containers. Our recycler does not recycle that kind of plastic so I can imagine how much room they take up at the landfill for the powder itself has a great flavor. Well, some people may not like the texture when added to a liquid beverage I use it in, still cut oats and smoothies – so there is not a gritty texture. The price has gone up since so many people are using protein powders in combination with weight loss drugs cost of transportation may have affected that too still it’s a low cost source of protein compared to meat and it’s not overly sweet but still sweet enough to be yummy. Highly recommend.

Let me start with what I like. It appears to be cold processed, grass fed, clean whey protein, which are all good things. There are no artificial colors or sweeteners which helps w/ no after taste and leaves out all that garbage that our bodies were never intended to use. It mixes well (I always use a blender) and has 25 g of protein. Now for the downside. There is no taste or any "extras" to enhance your meal. I'm basing this on my standard protein that I use IDLife Shake, that has an amazing flavor and micro-milled chia seeds that help with smoothness/consistency w/ the shake, and also adds helpful omega's. I guess you'd say I'm spoiled on the best, but I thought I'd try another to augment our protein use at home b/c we use a lot! Otherwise, I would probably give it a 4 star. Feel free to contact me if you want to know where to get IDLife or if you have any questions. Hit it Hard!

I have been using the same Promix flavor for 2 years and I love it. I make the same smoothie every morning and I measure out everything. I never change the ingredients. I use 1 cup of frozen fruit, half a banana, 10 almonds, a scoop of yogurt, the Promix, and just under a cup of almond milk. That always blends into a really nice thick smoothie. Something changed with this batch of Promix. I got two different bags with my order and both are the same. I have a large container that I put the Promix in so it's easier to scoop out of and reseal. It always comes up to a certain point on that container. This time...the powder seemed much finer and it came about an inch short of the line. The powder also poured out of the bag so much easier due to how fine the powder was. When I went to make my smoothie. It normally ends up being really thick and blends so well. This time around the smoothie felt a bit gritty and chalky. It definitely didn't taste as good and the consistency of the smoothy was super liquidy. I thought at first maybe it was something with the milk. So the next day I opened a new container of almond milk...same result. Then I thought maybe it was the powder because that just arrived. I opened the 2nd bag and sure enough the same result. I don't know what changed but I am very disappointed. Promix isn't cheap but I loved it. Now I find myself thinking about swapping to a different brand of protein powder.
