Earthborn Elements Whey Protein Isolate, 1 Gallon Bucket, Protein Powder, Unflavored, Workout Supplement (53.6 Ounce)

This is the best whey protein isolate! It is absolutely flavorless (I put it in my morning coffee) and dissolves easily. When purchasing the large quantity, it is so much more affordable. This is especially good for people with digestive issues, as whey protein isolate digest so much better than any other protein powder, also great for people that have had gastric surgery. Highly recommend!!!!

Love this protein powder! Best for stomach issues and fast recovery from exercise. Worth the cost by far. The bucket is helpful! So much better then a bag for protein powder!

According to the label, the net weight should be right at 53 oz so I put it on my digital scale and that's exactly what I got (or 3.3 pounds.) The whole gallon thing is a bit misleading. Anyway, this is the same whey isolate packaged by many brands on the market with sunflower lecithin added so that it doesn't clump together. At least to me, it tastes the same, looks the same and blends with whole milk the same. At current prices, it's not terrible at $.90 per oz, but there are better values out there; Nutricost in 5 lb containers being one of them. If you want pure whey, then you'll want to look at the more expensive concentrates as they usually don't have lecithin added. And read the labels very carefully because nearly every supplement company will try to sneak something past you!

Pros! and cons! Pros great deal for the price... I would give it five stars but. Conns! It appears to be Amino spiked!!! Which means the actual protein content could be as much as half of what the label says. I had to take a magnifier to the label to read and even then a lot of the letters are difficult to read huge amino acid profile. Amino spiking is the process where they put in cheap amino acids. So when it undergoes testing it appears to have more protein than it does. It's still a great deal for the price but probably getting far less protein than what's on the label

Needed to get the lid open by starting with a pair of pliers, then it peeled off easily by hand. There wasn't a scoop in the bucket that I received, only a moisture absorber. I use a 14.7cc scoop from a dog fiber container which equals, according to a measurement conversion for protein powder website, 7.3g of protein/scoop. I soon discovered that this powder is flavorless in a glass of water. Too, while it clumped and didn't dissolve in hot coffee, it dissolved easily, simply stirred into cold water and juices, Greek yogurt... any cold, liquidy food or beverage without having to putts with a blender to make smoothies. Using the calculator on the Harvard Heath website, based on gender, age, weight, height and activity level, I should get 60g of protein/day, which isn't always that easy for me at regular meals; I rarely have any afternoon meals, for example. According to the Mayo Clinic website, a person should aim for 15-30g of protein at one meal sitting. Studies show that getting more/sitting is not more beneficial (it won't be absorbed) and is a waste of $. As an old guy, who still lifts weights (since 9th grade), I'm aiming at stopping muscle mass loss and perhaps even increasing it some over time. The easy addition of this protein powder to my diet will ensure that I'm able to get the amount that I need/day to remain a better-than-average-healthy-and-active old guy.

No soy letchin And Better quality than far more expensive brands! I've been using isopure for years and it's the price has gotten extreme almost 30$ for 12 servings so I decided to try something new. I found this and was pleasantly surprised that instead of soy lectchin it uses sunflower letchin and mixes and tastes identical infact it's even smoother than isopure and mixes fine in hot, cold, high acid, and thick foods

what I like most about this is that it is flavorless. every place near my house only has flavors. Strawberry or chocolate potatoes don't sound very good.

If you require protein supplementation, this is an economical deal. I’ll add vanilla extract and or cocoa powder if I need it flavored. Stevia drops can add sweetness if you’re not adding fruit to your shake. Container is great for storing stuff after too— like legos (if you’re the type to hold onto stuff like this)
