Review: Great vegan protein powder with an even better price - This is my new favorite vegan protein powder. I was using sunwarrior for a while but this is nearly half the price, has a great amino acid balance and like the sunwarrior is gluten and soy-free. Sunwarrior's one selling point is that all their products are supposedly raw, but I feel like all protein powders are so incredibly processed and isolated anyway, it doesn't really matter to me. Texture in this product is very smooth (much better than sunwarrior or vega) and the vanilla taste, while not exactly top notch, is unoffensive and blends well with my green/fruity smoothies. The sweeteners used in this product are xylitol and stevia. If you have any ibs or loose stool issues, you might not like things with sugar alcohols in them but I personally have no issues with xylitol so I'm very happy with it. I have tried a lot of vegan protein powders recently and this is by far my favorite. My only complaint if it really could be called a complaint is that they don't sell larger containers of this. I prefer to buy protein powder in 4-5 pound containers but no issues other than that. Review: We were both surprised how good the flavor is - My husband and I finished this within 11 days. That was fast. We were both surprised how good the flavor is. Whey protein is not the greatest flavor so I expected even less from a plant protein however it is not the case. Going vegan, we wanted to keep up our protein from more than just our plant based meals. We will buy this product again. ## Features - NOW Sports products are comprehensively tested so you can trust that our products are pure and effective for every level of athletics - 22 G PROTEIN PER SERVING: Specifically formulated to address your needs with a non-GMO vegan protein blend from pea, hemp and quinoa sources - NON-GMO VEGAN PROTEIN BLEND: Each 1 scoop serving provides 22 grams of protein, and typically has about 3,900 mg of branched-chain amino acids and 1,800 mg of arginine - GMP Quality Assured: NPA A-rated GMP certification means that every aspect of the NOW manufacturing process has been examined, including our laboratory/testing methods (for stability, potency, and product formulation) - Founded in 1968 by Elwood Richard, NOW is one of the largest independent, family- and employee-owned manufacturers of natural products ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00NIJ01FO | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #266,497 in Health & Household ( See Top 100 in Health & Household ) #272 in Sports Nutrition Plant Protein Powders #762 in Sports Nutrition Whey Protein Powders #5,592 in Sales & Deals | | Brand | NOW | | Brand Name | NOW | | Customer Reviews | 3.9 out of 5 stars 165 Reviews | | Diet Type | Plant Based, Vegan, Vegetarian | | Flavor | Vanilla | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00733739021298 | | Item Dimensions | 4.75 x 4.75 x 8.63 inches | | Item Nype Name | Sports | | Item Weight | 2 pounds | | Manufacturer | NOW Sports - Nutrition and Wellness | | Manufacturer Part Number | 2129 | | Material Type Free | Soy Free | | Model Name | Nutrition, Plant Protein Complex 22 g | | Model Number | 2129 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Nut or Seed Type | Hempseed | | Package Type Name | Jar | | Product Benefits | Sports Nutrition | | Protein | 22 g | | Protein Source | Hemp, Pea | | Recommended Uses For Product | Protein Powder | | Servings per Container | 24 | | Supplement Formulation | Individual Supplement | | Total Servings Per Container | 24 | | UPC | 733739021298 | | Unit Count | 32 Ounce | ## Product Details - **Brand:** NOW - **Flavor:** Vanilla - **Item Weight:** 2 pounds - **Material Type Free:** Soy Free - **Servings per Container:** 24 ## Images ![Sports, Plant Protein Complex 22g, Creamy Vanilla, 2 lbs - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71o4FRHFH9L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great vegan protein powder with an even better price *by A***E on June 3, 2015* This is my new favorite vegan protein powder.
