    Default low carb/low sugar protein shake powder?

    Do you have one you like? DS and I drink a lot of protein shakes - me b/c I find they help with my weight loss and DS b/c he has some issues eating breakfast and "hearing" his body's hunger signals. The only one we've really liked in the past was the Aktins but we got some spoiled ones recently (so gross!) and it's made me a bit wary of them. Plus they are expensive locally and I buy them on Amz and always feel a bit guilty when they are delivered it's a heavy package (to say nothing of the excess packaging its self). So I'd like to check out some other options this summer.

    I love the Naked Nutrition brand. You can get on Amazon. It’s the only one I have found that has an option with no sugar or sweetener. Their flavored ones do have sugar. The Naked Whey is great... no taste, blends easily. You can get all the information on their website then order on Amazon. I also love their peanut powder.

    I like the Weight Watchers brand chocolate flavor; I use 1/2 of a scoop most days and mix with unsweetened vanilla oat milk and Vital Proteins collagen powder. I tend to get stomach aches from protein powder that has pea protein in it, but this one is okay. The last one that didn’t pass the stomach test was Orgain Organic; thankfully I bought it at Costco and could return.

    This is the one my gym recommends. I mix it with yogurt.

    I like PEScience. It's the one that has the least artificial sweetener taste for me. I often mix it with coffee to cut the sweetness. Not sure if you can buy it locally though, I've only ever bought it from Amazon.

    I like Prolific Isolate from GNC. It is sweetened with stevia and has a very clean ingredient list.

    Not a powder but we love Premier Protein and you can get it by the case at Costco. I like that it is just grab and go. No need to measure and mix.
    Only 1g sugar. I like chocolate the best.

Have had great improvement or total elimination of: migraines, bloating/distention, heartburn, cystic acne, canker sores, bleeding gums, eczema on elbows, dry skin and scalp, muscle cramps, PMS, hair loss, heart palpitations, fatigue. I'm amazed.

    At our house we just make our regular fruit/greens smoothie and add oatmeal for fiber and some protein. It's very filling! You could also add yogurt for protein (in place or or in addition to the oatmeal). That's what we do.

    My oldest loves the premier protein. I either grab an Atkins shake or I have Daily Harvest smoothies that I mix with Almond milk a little Stevia.
