Iron Vegan Athlete's Blend Plant Based Protein Powder by Jamieson (22g), Low Carb Keto Friendly, Vegan, Non Dairy, Gluten-Free, Non-GMO - Organic & Plant Based - Double Chocolate (22 Servings)

I was really excited to try this product. It came recommended to me by my Dietician. I’ve been using it for 2 days now. The after taste is really pretty bad. I noticed I was getting cramping shortly after drinking it...it’s the stevia they put into it. If you don’t enjoy bad tasting protein powders- this product isn’t for you.

This is one of my favorite new protein powders. Mostly because of how much protein it has compared to quite a few other protein powders I've used. Flavor is pretty good, too. I've been using this for more than just smoothies, I made pancakes, muffins, and chia pudding with it, using almost a full scoop for the pancakes and muffins and it didn't make them come out gritty or too dense.

This thing has the largest ‘scoop’ I have ever seen on any product. It felt like I was using a giant measuring cup and baking something… GINORMOUS! The directions say to add one GIANT scoop to 8 to 10 ounces of water. I went for the 10 as holy smokes it was still THICK! It was like drinking pudding. I am not sure who can ever take it that way. My pictures show my cup totally horizontal as the blob slowly made its way to the opening. The taste was fine and rather mild – but way too thick as it felt like I was eating something rather than drinking something. I went up to 16 ounces of water and it was MUCH better – actually drinkable that way. It mixed OK – but next time I will put it in my blender for a smoother finish. Again – the flavor was fine – not very sweet as some other gross products - so that was nice. But their directions and the GINORMOUS scoop have something to be desired…If you found my review helpful, why not click the “helpful” button. Thanks! : )

If you're used to Vega pea protein, this is very similar. It has a hint of flavor and some sweetness but it's mostly pea protein with all the flavor and texture of pea protein. The ingredients are very similar to Vega as well as its mixing/textural attributes. Actually, I would say this is superior to Vega brand in that it utilizes organic fermented pea protein as to opposed to commonly processed pea protein. The fermentation helps with bioavailability and digestion and organic is a little bit healthier as far as avoiding pesticide and chemical residues. So the quality of ingredients exceeds other common vegan brands for a competitive price.This doesn't have an appreciable amount of things like beetroot, quercetin, green banana, etc, to really merit calling it superfood-packed or extremely nutritious. Those added ingredients are nice to see on the label but just aren't in a potent enough amount to make any difference for your health. It just gives the company an excuse to mark up the price. Mostly, you're getting sweetened and flavored pea protein, that's it.I'm used to vegan protein so the flavor and texture is fine to me. If you're picky about your food and used to cheap whey or junk food, I'm sure this will taste "healthy" to you but to me, it makes a satisfying and enjoyable shake.One negative thing I will say is this: "organic flavors" is listed in the ingredients before every other beneficial ingredient besides the actual base of pea and rice protein. There are more undeclared mystery flavoring agents in this than real cinnamon, stevia, etc. Vega brand does the same thing and very few brands don't do this. "Natural flavors" can legally include hundreds of lab-synthesized chemicals that are not natural in the definition you and I think of. It's sad that so many companies can get away with not telling us what's actually in stuff like this just because consumers want something that tastes like ice cream.Positive: I like that the tub is full to the top rather than wasting a ton of plastic like other common brands do.Mixes easily without a blender if necessary.

You definitely get that earthy pea protein flavor with this and the vanilla is very subtle. Surprisingly, though the other ingredients which would typically have a very strong flavor (cherry, pepper, beets, cinnamon) don't overwhelm and it's a mild, neutral taste. You can mix it with plenty of other stuff and it will complement well.The 30g of protein per scoop is 50% more than most protein shakes I've tried and that's great. Pea is obviously a protein rich veggie. This mix also provides with some serious BCAA (whatever those are) and glutamines. It's low fat, which doesn't impress, but also very low sugar, which is great. They use the most natural sweetener (stevia) and it doesn't overwhelm the taste, so that's great.

While milk-based protein powders typically mix easily and taste great, some cannot tolerate dairy or prefer plant based products. This Iron Vegan by Jamieson Athlete’s Blend Powder is truly a top notch product that focuses on quality. It is USDA certified organic, non-GMO, and even tested for any banned substances. With 30g of protein per serving and some added BCAAs, this is truly excellent. They even added a few extra nice additions such as beet root, taurine, quercetin, etc. The base is a pea protein mixed with brown rice protein. It is a bit chalky in texture, but the taste is pretty good and I love that it is naturally sweetened with organic stevia. The price is somewhat expensive, but if you value quality over price, then this is definitely a product worth considering.

I thought I would like this based on the ingredients. I typically like any powders without added greens (like spirulina). However, this was definitely not my favorite, although it is tolerable. Here is my review...Pros:-vegan!-I loved the large scoops- they were not skimpy to make it seem like there were more servings in the container-the container was actually decently full- a rarity amongst powders-complete protein source-sweetened with stevia and no sugar-high protein per calories-mixed good- even in oatmealCons:-TASTE: it wasn't very sweet and didn't have a strong flavor- mediocre at best-I hated the container- the label is plastic wrapped and not a sticker so it was constantly falling off
