Body Nutrition Trutein High Protein Powder: 45% Whey, 45% Casein, 10% Egg White, Gluten-Free, Low Sodium, Grass Fed Whey Protein Powder, Gym Supplement & Breakfast Shake, Banana Cream, 34g Sample

Smells tempting and tastes delicious, I might like it more than my all-time favorite Cinnabun. It's interesting how almost 10 years after learning about Trutein Cinnabun on a random Reddit post, it's still the best tasting protein powder I've tried so far - hands down. And the protein ratio, if true, is such a good value too. Now I'm excited to try the other two flavor samples I bought.

My very favorite protein shake. Tastes Yummy!!

So far I’ve tried a few different flavors. I’ve ordered: Banana cream Peanut butter chocolate Strawberry cream And the peanut butter marshmallow but it wasn’t sent, and I received the natural PB chocolate I’ve used a plethora of protein powders over the past 20 years. Mostly due to dietary restrictions, and overall health and fitness goals in mind. I love the blend concept, just still trying to find a good brand so I don’t have to mix it all myself and have a ton of stuff lying around. Banana cream (7/10) is good, I add Greek yogurt and a banana w ice and it makes it really good. Chocolate peanut butter (3/10) is ok, but kinda has a medicine taste to it. The natural version is even worse. I add powder PB to both but it doesn’t get rid of that aftertaste. I doubt I’ll buy either one again. Strawberry cream (8 or 9/10) is amazing!!! I’ve tried about every strawberry protein and believe me I was sick to death of strawberry, vanilla and chocolate when I tried these. But this one is pretty damn good! It tastes like something you’d expect from a big chain juice bar. My kids even like the taste. I will continue to try other flavors. Might buy the sample packs, and go from there. I also want to try some other brands to compare, but I’m pretty impressed. It’s a little more per tub and you get about a lb less than a normal whey, BUT you also don’t know what you get anymore and it seems most are amino dumping and filling product with junk fillers. Had some hiccups on my last order, but it seems to have been resolved. The seller really came through even though it seemed to have been mistakes on someone else’s part. I really admire companies that take accountability even when it’s not their fault, so that deserves an honorable mention.

I have been a fan of protein shakes for a very long time and tried many different ones over the years. This one is not bad. I usually go for the vanilla or banana flavors and therefore got the Banana Cream here. It turned out that the taste is ok, but I've had other shakes that taste quite a bit better (Dymatize brand or Syntha-6, for example) — fully realizing that many other reviewers here are very happy with the taste. Perhaps mixing with milk or cutting a banana into the mix will improve the flavor, but this will increase the amount of carbs. You might as well get a powder with a few more carbs to start with, as those typically taste better overall, even in water without fruit or milk added. The contents of this Trutein powder is good (a good mix of slow-digesting and fast-digesting protein types), but it could be improved by adding more fiber. 2.5 grams is a start, but 5-8 grams would be better, especially for people who use these shakes as part of a diet (rather than for body building, where you don't want to get full, so you can consume more meals throughout the day). Some reviewers noted that there was no scoop inside: There always is! After you open the tub, get a big fork and go digging, it's usually buried in the powder. Some reviewers noted that the can is not completely full: You still get the full amount by weight, though! I don't think I've ever opened a tub that was more than three quarters full. Granted, a waste of space, but I would not knock down a star on my review for it.

I started using this protein after some extensive internet research when trying to find a protein that was not all whey due to lactose intolerance. I have lost over 20 lbs within 4 months; I incorporated Trutein into my healthier diet with frequent exercise to accomplish that. This, of course, is based off my tastebuds. If you don't like mint, stay away from the Shamrock Shake. If you don't like Eggnog, well, don't buy the Eggnog, so on and so forth. Recommended flavor by itself with water only (therefore pretty much good in anything); Chocolate, Vanilla Bean, Cinnabun, Shamrock Shake, Pumpkin Pie, Eggnog, Cookies & Cream Recommended with milk/almond milk/etc; Banana Cream (also good with fruit juice), Lemon Meringue Pie Needs adjustments to flavor; Mocha - no good by itself, and I love coffee flavored things, but if you split it with chocolate is much more edible Peanut Butter Marshmallow Cookie - actually tasted just like the name but the PB is kinda muted, would much rather put actual PB in my shake, you could add PB to this if you really dig the marshmallow taste at risk making it too sweet Birthday Cake - worst one by far so far, and I like BC flavor things. Wouldn't bother for a drink, may be good for protein pancakes or mug cakes I will update as I have a few more flavors to try

This protein shake is definitely for those that are not fans of chalky protein shakes. It is like having a real milkshake. My friends try it and love it. My 11 year old makes them because he loves it!

While overall I have no complaints as to the flavor, which is excellent and the Ingredients seem good (except for me). The price value is ok. My problem is that I am diabetic. It may just be my metabolism, which a real distinct possibility; but my blood glucose level goes erratic. I even tried a half a scoop and the same thing. I skipped a few days in between to see if there might have been another source of food that I may have eaten that caused the spike. Alas, nothing changed. Glucose was like a rocket ship taking off and it hung there most of the day. I had to take a number of insulin shots to bring it down to normal. Perhaps a warning should be noted on the webpage. "This product may increase blood glucose levels in some people". Other than that I have no complaints.

I tried this for to try the casein effect and i read reviews that these taste good. It does taste great but for me a too sweet. I had to load a lot of water in it and it becomes a lot to drink.
