I like it with yogurt and fruits

Nancy H

easy to mix. and doesn't abset stomach

Douglas D
I have many mutations and need a whey for the glutathione that is in natural whey while avoiding some other things like folic acid, b12 and grams of glutamine and cysteine. But there is very little info on this label, esp. the aa profile with grams of ingredients.

I have contacted VS and they are going send me a full ingredient list I hope.

So, what are the ingredients?

Nancy P.
Does this product contain any BCAA's?
A shopper

Best Answer:  Only the naturally occurring BCAAs that are from whey. There aren't any added BCAAs.

Daniel T
Says it contains soy? Is this GMO free because everything soy pretty much contains GMO's.
A shopper

Best Answer:  The product doesn't state on it anywhere, (that I can find) saying it is GMO free. Most places proudly place "NON GMO" right on their labels. I was told by a friend that it only states "Soy" because it's made in a factory that produces soy product. I wish I could be more helpful than that to you.

Jodi B
Product does not blend well even though using a blender ball...it still has clumps!!! Does anyone else have this problem?
A shopper

Best Answer:  I found VS True Athlete Natural Whey Protein to mix easily, tastes great and mixes easily with anything...juice, soy milk, water, fruit, etc. No clumping, no problems! I even used a little VS shaker cup at times (w/o fruit, of course!)

Laura D
does it make you gain weight?
A shopper

Best Answer:  No.

Jeneth T
How much Soy does this contain?
M U

Best Answer:  It doesn't contain any. The statement on the container is only because it's made in a factory that also produces soy products.

Jodi B
How much phosphorous is in a scoop?
A shopper

Best Answer:  The "True Athlete Natural Whey Protein" powder appears to have no phosphorus at all. Check the Vitaminshoppe website listing for this product, click on "supplement facts", and it will show a list of the amounts of all the nutrients that are in it.

Leslie
How many times should I consume this on a daily basis 2 times per day or will 3 be excessive?
Christian

Best Answer:  My husband takes it once a day instead of eating breakfast. That works for him. Don’t know about additional times.

Charles
Is it peanut and tree nut free?
A shopper

Best Answer:  Sorry, I have no idea.

Judy K
Can you drink this protein while pregnant?
A shopper

Best Answer:  It is best to ask your doctor this one. Take the label to your appointment.

    Are protein shakes "good” for you?

    Protein shakes can be an excellent addition to a well-rounded diet and healthy lifestyle. Research has shown that supplementing with protein can support athletic performance, post-workout recovery, weight management, muscle maintenance, and muscle growth.

    Can protein shakes support weight gain?

    Protein shakes may support weight gain if they contribute to a calorie surplus in your diet.

    Can protein shakes support weight loss?

    Research has shown that protein-rich foods temporarily rev up your metabolism and can help make you feel satiated longer, which may contribute to weight loss.

    Are protein shakes "good" for women?

    Supplementing with protein is as beneficial for women as it is for men in supporting muscle growth and maintenance, recovery, and performance.

    How can protein supplements benefit my muscles?

    Protein supplements provide the nutrients your body needs to stimulate muscle protein synthesis and support recovery post-workout.

    Who Would Benefit from Taking Protein?

    • Athletes and fitness enthusiasts looking to support muscle growth, muscle maintenance, performance, and post-workout recovery
    • Individuals with weight management goals seeking a lower-calorie, high-protein option
    • Older adults who require more protein to maintain muscle mass and overall health
    • Busy professionals and students who need a quick and convenient source of protein on the go
    • Anyone with increased protein needs, such as vegetarians or individuals practicing a low-carb diet
