Purely Inspired Plant-Based Protein Powder for Men & Women, Creamy French Vanilla (16 Servings) – Vegan & Organic – 20g of Pea Protein Powder for Smoothies & Shakes – Dairy-Free, & Gluten-Free

Not chalky. High fiber & low carb count. I use this daily.
Out of all the various plant protein powder mixes I’ve tried, this one is my favorite. Others might be slightly less expensive per pound, but two main reasons keep me coming back to this product.The first is taste. It doesn’t jump up and down on my taste buds and scream “awesome flavor,” but it not bad at all. I find the vanilla to be more enjoyable than the chocolate, but I mix them up for variety’s sake. What stands out to me is how much smoother this stuff is than the comparable product at Costco. Both are organic, but wow – that Costco stuff tastes quite chalky compared to this. This product blends up pretty smooth. If I’m in the mood for something sweet, I add a bit of stevia powder to the mix.The second reason I keep using this product is the carb and fiber count. Not only does this product have 7 grams of fiber per serving, it has only 9 total carbs. Using the method of subtracting fiber from total carbs, that means I’m consuming only two “net” carbs per serving, which is quite beneficial for when when I’m eating a keto diet. Comparable products have anywhere from 5 to 17 carbs per serving, depending on the brand. If I put on a few pounds, I can lose them pretty quickly eating high fat / low carb, with 20 or fewer carbs per day.The high fiber content also helps keep my cholesterol in check. I strive for a minimum of 30g fiber per day, because it absorbs the bile in the small intestines which keeps the bile from being reabsorbed by the body and turned into cholesterol. By increasing my fiber intake and cutting out all processed food, I was able to significantly lower my cholesterol from 235 to 178 in just three months. By maintaining my fiber intake, my cholesterol has stayed at or near that lower number for two years running. I obviously can’t promise everyone that result — and so that the FDA doesn’t harass me, I should say that this statement has not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration, and that this product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. :-)I first found this product at Wally World, and at the time of this writing, the retail price for a one-time purchase on Amazon is the same as Walmart. But for the past few months I’ve had this on “subscribe & save,” which brings the price down 15%.Only one time did I have a problem with the delivery – someone at Amazon packed it alone in a large box with no air pillows, and all the jostling in transit caused the lid to come partially off. I opened the box to find a lot of powder! A simple email to Amazon solved the problem – they paid for me to ship the opened container back and they sent me a new one lickety split. Also, every once in a while, the tops on these containers don’t snug up all the way when you tighten them. Twice in the past year I’ve had tops that “jump” the threads. It’s not a big deal … it just means you shouldn’t carry those particular containers by the lid when putting them back in the pantry! That said, most of them snug up just fine.I believe this product to be a great source of organic plant-based protein. As for making drinks, I use this product daily as part of a power-packed smoothie. By the way, to enhance the nutrients in that smoothie, I almost always add a scoop of Organic Greens plus a scoop of JUCE powder that I get from Costco (can’t find it on Amazon – if you find it, let me know).

I’ve updated my review a little
Everything in my old review below is accurate but there have been some recent changes that I am not impressed with. I’ve been ordering this protein powder for nearly a year. I probably go through about 2 containers a month. I just got my newest order in, with it’s sleek new clear container and updated packaging. That says it comes with “60% more”, however a quick comparison next to the current container I was using, I can see there is now 20g of protein/serving vs the 22g it currently had. It also has 1g LESS fiber and 1g MORE carbs. While these are minor changes, it is disappointing, why are these changes necessary? I checked my amazon account today just to confirm these changes were listed and while the picture is accurate, the description still states 22g of protein which is misleading and false. It is still a very good powder with a good flavor, so I’ll most likely continue to order, just not sure why the changes were made?So I am just starting a weight lose journey. A friend of mine suggested adding in some protein to my day. She mentioned doing organic, I came across this item on amazon. It had mixed reviews but most of them are regarding the vanilla. I have been using the decadent chocolate for about 2 weeks, I mix into a smoothie with banana, strawberries and water. It taste DELICIOUS! I really enjoy it, which makes me concerned maybe it’s not that healthy for me? IDK lol but I’ll take it. If I had one critic, I do get a little taste of powder even after I’ve blended for a while, I’m not sure if thats due to my cheap blender or it’s ability to blend but it’s just worth noting nothing to complain about!

Spent the past years trying several vegan protein powders… was already getting hopeless with the horrible chalky taste.Then I found this brand for my luck!It tastes so nice that I make it as a chocolate mousse to eat every day. And it doesn’t bloat me!Already re-ordered to stock.

Good product but ordered 2 pieces received only 1
