Applied Nutrition Plant Protein Powder – Critical Plant Vegan Protein Shake with SOYA, Pea, Brown Rice Proteins & Essential Amino Acids - Dairy-Free Gym Supplement (450g - 15 Servings) (Vanilla)

I have been using this protein for a while now. I don't follow a plant based diet but I eat as clean as possible and find the ingredients in this to my liking. Low in fat, carbs and high in protein. The sweetners used don't add calories. The texture and taste are good and I make mine in a ninja blender usually with a banana added for additional nutrition and combined with the chocolate flavour it makes for a tasty drink. I also sometimes add creatine if it fits in with my workout schedule or I want an extra serving that day. I usually have one or two shakes daily but it depends on what I have done that day. I don't tend to use this as a replacement meal but purely for a protein boost after a workout. I find this digests well and I don't suffer from bloating or gas. Chocolate is my favourite flavour out of the three available.

I’ve cut out dairy to reduce my hayfever symptoms (it is helping!) and this is the second vegan powder I’ve tried. It’s really great. It tastes better than a whey powder with none of the full, bloated feeling. I mix it with collagen and creatine and it carries well. It doesn’t have that vile smell if you don’t wash the bottle immediately either. Will repurchase a bigger bag. This has all the right amino acids in for a vegan powder.

This non-lactose protein shake is made from soy. To be honest, if I had nothing else to eat, it’s okay — I could drink it. I’ve only tried it once, and it didn’t really appeal to me. It tastes a bit like raw potatoes or grains, kind of strange. I once thought about adding fruit to it, which would probably make it tastier. For situations where there’s no other food or time, it’s fine. Maybe I’ll get used to it, but for now it’s just sitting in the cupboard. Some people like it, some don’t — for me, it didn’t really hit the spot.

Great taste !

Value for money. Good quality. Blends easily and perfect taste...

Good stuff

I usually buy whey protein powder, but thought I'd try this as it has a slight higher protein to the scoop in comparison....and it was on sale. However, I am just about stomaching this due to the texture once mixed, it's like drinking watered down mash potatoe (not that I've ever had that). UPDATE: I tried this for little less than a week, and I'm starting to be physically sick with drinking it. Have now binned this purchase and ordered the normal whey protein powder I used to have.

Firstly, the taste is not bad to me at all. Ive seen a lot of negative reviews about this. It does taste a little chalky but its edible. The problem I have is that on the back of the packet it states 1 scoop= 30g. This is simply not true. I used the scoop they provided in the bag and measured it precisely. It came to 22g of powder. This means if you just assume the scoop is correct you are getting a lot less protein per scoop than you think. Now I measure the protein on scales to 30g. Bit of a scam really.
