I Love Protein Powder! Part 4

        Tried out a new brand of whey protein. These are Impact Whey Protein by the UK based company +Myprotein USA. They recently started introducing their products to the US a couple of years ago. What I like about this brand is most of their products are low in fillers and artificial additives. I got a great deal on this 5.5lb pouch of whey protein concentrate for less than $45. They have a wide range of flavors especially for the Impact Whey protein blend. Some flavors include Strawberry Jam Roly Poly, Strawberries and Cream, Banoffee, Toffee, Summer Fruits, Raspberry, Chocolate Smooth, Vanilla, Cookies and Cream, Lemon Cheesecake and more! Definitely not your typical flavors. There is 19grams of protein, 1.7 grams fat and 1.5grams of carbs. Great macronutrient profile. A little lower in protein than other popular brands that I have tried but still decent. Again, a lot less artificial fillers too.

           Above is photo of 2.2lb pouch of Apple Crumble & Custard. First of all, this is my first time having pouches as packaging for protein powder. A bit different but definitely saves space once it is empty which I appreciate. In terms of this flavor, it was light in water. Probably tastes better with milk. I pick up just a hint of apple but more of a bakery flavor; kinda like a pie crust.

Now this is a 5.5 bag of Vanilla & Raspberry. Not your typical flavor. This is my favorite out of my two purchases. It has a nice balance of Vanilla with a sweet and sour raspberry flavor. When mixed it gives you a light pink hue which is due to the natural coloring from beetroot extract. I'm really glad I got this in a 5.5 pouch. +Myprotein USA has a few flavors and unflavored in 11lb pouches as well. 

Overall, I am very happy with my purchase. I'm really glad this company has decided to expand to the US market. I almost forgot but mixability for this whey concentrate is awesome. A couple of shakes with a blender cup will do the job. I have not tested it out with a spoon but I'm sure it will still mix. This is definitely a brand worth checking out. Great price for whey concentrate. They have additional blends of proteins on their site. The US site is us.myprotein.com and their UK site is myprotein.com. I am hoping they will make all of their products available to the US soon.
