There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I work out pretty much every day now with 30 minutes of decent intensity cardio (heart rate ~155 for at least 20 minutes) and do some weight lifting about 3x a week to target some areas of my body that are weaker. I have also started counting calories and keeping around 1300kCal a day with an intermittent fast to lose some of the extra weight.
This Garden of Life powder is a great meal substitute for my lunches! On the plan, I do not eat a morning breakfast, work out over my lunch break from work, and then have one of these to break my fast as a lunchtime meal replacement. I'll eat a normal high-protein dinner to get to my calorie goal for the day.
I mix this with an unsweetened oat milk for a 120 calorie protein boost after working out. I am not dairy-free or vegan, I just like how oat milk tastes. Adds a nice creaminess to this powder. After blending for at least 30 seconds in a nutribullet, this comes out as a pretty nice shake. Smooth, non-grainy and a decent cocoa flavor. I also appreciate how the plant-based protein really rounds out my diet.
With this plan, I have lost about 35lbs in about 2.5 months. This protein shake helps me feel satiated enough over the day (I am in a deficit, so I do feel hungry and just have to push through it). My body looks better, I have real natural energy, and I am reaching fitness goals I never thought possible. I should be to my goal weight by this summer and I couldn't do it without some modern health supplementation and hard work.
I'm vegetarian and was getting a bit underweight, so I needed to supplement with some shakes that were healthy (ie, not gooped up in hydrogenated corn oil and sweeteners). I also am blessed with a fairly sensitive stomach, so I didn't want to go with super-processed whey proteins or estrogenic soy proteins. And finally...I wanted something I could mix into things that wouldn't taste artificially sweet or, well, weird. So I got hooked on this protein and it's been a staple ever since.
There are tons of things to love about this protein. First, I like about it is that it's a synergistic blend of many types of proteins - pea, rice, amaranth, chia, etc - so you're getting a full spectrum of healthy proteins. Another plus is that it has probiotics - helpful for digestion. It's also not heated, there's no stevia or other sweeteners so it's like a "blank palate" for making it salty, sweet, spicy, etc. (The possibilities are endless - I've made it into a hummus-like dip, sweet smoothies, added it to cookies and baked goods, sprinkled it on fruit and yogurt..) There's a lot of powder in a scoop (compared to other proteins out there), but it's not super high calorie and has a high percentage (80%) of protein. Finally, it doesn't taste FOUL. I mean, I have tried plenty of proteins - basically everything that's at your local Whole Foods - and some of them, especially the pea-protein-heavy ones like PlantFusion, taste salty and funky. This one I've actually grown to like. I've had it plain (mixed just with water), with almond milk (gives it a nice "caramel-y" undertone), with fruit and coconut milk as a dessert, and even in a blended soup. I felt amazing after starting to supplement twice a day - I'm much more muscular, feel more energetic, and am certainly less hungry.
Why am I knocking it off one star? First, there is no information about the sodium content on the label. Check out other pea proteins - you'll see sodium is anywhere from 11 - 27% of your RDA. (Whether sodium consumption really affects blood pressure is another issue, but still - I want to know what I'm consuming.) Given that nearly EVERY protein out there that I've seen has information about this, it's really unacceptable for Garden of Life not to disclose this on the label.
Also, note the taste WILL take some getting used to if you're used to the sucralose/stevia sweetened whey proteins or other super-sugary protein shakes out there. You can start by replacing the sugar with fruit, or maybe add a few drops of stevia. Honestly, though, give it a week or two, and those tastes will start to change, and the natural taste actually becomes something you like. It's nice to give over-stimulated taste buds a break from all that sweetness.
I will also say that there are better tasting proteins out there. My personal favorite is brown rice protein - it's smooth, blends really well, and just tastes "sweeter". But it's only one type of protein, so I like to mix it up - some days I'll do the brown rice, some days Garden of Life.
I'd highly recommend this as a "starter" natural protein for anyone looking for a good, complete, non-processed source of vegetarian protein!
