      I use this in homemade protein bars and post-workout shakes. My first experience with it has been great. I'm so used to highly processed powders with a super sweet taste, but the lightly sweet and natural smell and taste of the product was refreshing. I feel a ton "cleaner" with my diet, now. Negatives? None. Fair in price for the number of servings. It's a must-try!

      i hate to even rate this, but i chose to give it an "average" given the fact that neither the web page nor the actually container list the amino acid profile per serving.I like the taste, but it would be great to know the make-up of this protein. It's really important to know that makeup - can anyone tell me? amino acid muscle builders/sustainers like leucine are so important, and they are making huge news lately. For instance, Jay Robb Protein list out - among other things - that it has 2518 mg of leucine per serving. It costs more than this protein, so i assume the True Athlete has less...but i have no idea.

          I add this protein powder to my spinach shakes for a quick breakfast! I have used others, but love the taste of this with the Stevia as a sweetner, it is not too sweet. I also love the addition of Lactose and Inulin for better assimilation and digestion.

                  I really like the fact that it is one of the more natural products available that you can walk into a store and buy. Most others are only available to order online. I love my local Vitamin Shoppe! The people who work there are so knowledgeable and helpful. I do wish it had more protein per scoop, but it is a concentrate, not an isolate...thank goodness! The only thing I would suggest for this protein powder is to make an unflavored version...please! I will definitely buy this again.

                      I Really like this product NO Hormones,sweetend with Stevia, No artificial Flavors, colors, Taste Great. Not sickly sweet to me, get away from that suralose,thats what a chlorinated sweetner will do to your taste buds, also tricks the the mind into craving more sugar,etc. See Dr. Mercolas web site on Sweetners. In the End your body will truly thank you. will buy again.

                          I have found that there are far better choices of Whey Protein currently on the market than this one. Like others, I have found this one tasted too sweet. But more importantly... this one is far too high in cholesterol per serving, 65mg per scoop vs 20mg per scoop of other brands.

                          >> A Vitamin Shoppe Customer commented on this review on 2012-01-02
                          I'm a cyclist as well, and I must agree with this review. The Sun Harvest whey protein has practically the same amount of protein per scoop (18mg) and less than 1/3 of the cholesterol. On heavy workout days I can take 1 1/2 scoops and not worry. Thnx

                          Was excited to try this new product - been looking for a quality whey protein that does not contain sugar, sucralose, or aspartame. This product fits the bill but has a rubbery, sickly sweet taste - even when blended in a fruit smoothie.

                              I am pleasantly surprised by this product. I'm always a little hesitant to try new protein powder but True Athlete is really good. It's pretty thick with 8oz of water so I thin it out by adding a little more and it doesn't water down the flavor.
