My favorite protein!!

I have Eihlers-Danlos (EDS) which essentially makes me allergic to everything, incredibly skinny/ no muscle, and provides lovely flare ups that cause stomach, joint, and nerve problems. I've always struggled to keep on weight, especially healthy weight, so finding a good protein has been a decades-long endeavor. I'm happy to say that Sunwarrior is an absolute godsend! The unique nutritive mix as well as the bioavailability somehow don't cause me to bloat, and actually helped me to build muscle for the first time in my life! I use the classic plus as a post-workout drink and was able to gain 20 lbs of lean muscle after just four months of consistent exercise--something I was never able to do before! I'll occasionally try the new protein blends just to see if they work better for me, but the classic plus seems to be the best for my particular body.

LOVE!

I am a big fan of their Warrior Blend but this variety is excellent as well! It isn't as chalky as many other plant-based protein powders and adds a boost of flavor to my post-run breakfast shakes. I don't follow a vegan or vegetarian diet but I opt for plant-based proteins because they are generally easier to digest and are more filling than whey (in my personal experience). I actually find myself craving the light vanilla flavor and look forward to having my shake when I'm using this product. Please never stop making this blend! It makes my heart (and my muscles) happy!

Great clean protein that sits well with me

I've been using this protein for years now and I keep a recurring subscription. I had been looking for a good protein for a while and whey proteins usually made me pretty gassy but this protein sits the best in my stomach. I use the unflavored protein since I think it helps me blend it pretty easily into however I make it. I use it in smoothies, coffee, basic protein shakes, and I absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for a great protein supplement.

Great plant protein, but Clean Greens & Protein is better

Sunwarrior makes some great products. They taste great and ingredients are high quality (see photo, nothing sketchy). The classic plus was good, but if I buy again I might just get the Clean Greens and Protein which I find tastes better and is easier on the stomach (I eat that sh*t for breakfast!). If you’re looking for higher protein above taste preference, classic plus is for you..maybe try Warrior Blend too, which is thick and facilitates warrior gains.

Taste and texture are great with a strong macro profile to ensure a good serving of protein and minerals. The Natural flavor blends easily into whatever you want without any strong pea flavor like other vegan powers can have, and the texture is smooth and slightly creamy in smoothies or mixed into oatmeal. I usually put mine into smoothies but it also mixes well on the go in the shacker bottle (the vanilla is tasty for this more than unflavored in my opinion).

I really liked the Classic Plus! I didn't find the stevia taste to be overwhelming and feel like the overall flavor was pretty similar to other chocolate protein powders I've tried. The thing I love the most is how this protein powder doesn't leave me feeling bloated but is still a filling enough meal with some oatmilk and peanut butter.

The only protein powder that ever worked for me.

I am lactose intolerant so most of the dairy based protein powder did not work. In addition, pea protein, rice protein or other vegan protein source did not work for me as I got super gassy. This one said fermented pea protein so I gave it a go. No gassiness at all. It tastes great, filling with less than 100 calories, and it seems to agree with me. I like their other protein powder as well. If you had similar issues as me, give this a try.

Tastes Good

I used this during a short/focused training period. It tasted good and when mixed with egg whites was a great way to get some calories and protein without a ton of fat. I liked the collagen mix better, but this was cheaper, so it was a good option at the time. I'm no expert, but for a casual athlete, I'm pleased with this blend.

Great choice

I really enjoy Sunwarrior’s products in general. I like the vanilla, chocolate, and natural flavors. The natural flavor is really good if you don’t typically enjoy the taste of stevia. I know stevia is not for everyone. I use this as my daily morning supplement after morning workouts and I’ve seen great benefits.

Great Product

I've been using this protein powder for about a year now. It's an on-the-go breakfast for me or an ingredient in a dessert "milkshake". The nutrition content is impressive, and I appreciate the diverse ingredients. I use the unsweetened powder, which is without a doubt hard to drink straight. It's unsweetened. But with some cinnamon and a little maple syrup it's hard to beat for the power it packs.

Great Unflavored Option

I mix this with the Chocolate LEAN protein powder to get that extra bit of protein. It has a little more texture than the unflavored Warrior Blend, but I mix in a tablespoon of soaked chia seeds for a tapioca texture to negate the protein powder. It is a good alternate to the Warrior Blend because it has a different protein source.

Blends smooth and creamy

I usually use the 100% rice protein powder form Sunwarrior and was interested to try this blend to vary my sources. I was very happy with the quality of the product, it blends smooth and creamy, I've tried it on it's own, in a smoothie, and in oatmeal and all preparations work well. I will continue to alternate between the two. I prefer the plain flavor without added ingredients.

The unflavored "natural" formula doesn't have any stevia or overpowering flavor so it's perfect for the smoothies I make with frozen fruit, frozen greens, and a little honey. It blends well (I use a Vitamix) and is easy on the stomach. Also works great blended with half a frozen banana, a tablespoon of high quality cocoa, and a spoonful of peanut butter for what tastes like a milkshake.

Clean protein

Tastes great and mixes well. Very happy with the blend of protein sources, as I find that other single-sources can cause some stomach upset. The addition of aminos is great, and can cut out the need for additional BCAA supplements. I would prefer the small amount of Stevia to be omitted, but it's hard to find an unsweetened protein blend. Overall very happy with this.

tasty

I bought for the amino acids. Compared to the warrior blend, this one has a few more and more per scoop. I enjoy the way it tastes. Blends really well with any liquid. The vanilla flavor is very good, not fake tasing, no metallic aftertaste. This is good stuff.

I love the taste and texture of this product. I recently have started a diet that I don’t eat anything till 5pm except for a shake at noon and this protein powder has been awesome at noon. I lost 10 lbs in one week and I love knowing I am putting great things into my body.

Hearty Protein Powder

I really like this protein powder, one because it leaves me full and ready for my day and two, I like that I only need one scoop. I have used others in the past that require 2 scoops, and in my smoothies, I am really tight on space, because I add lots of tasty ingredients.

I tried the chocolate classic version and found the taste pretty good. I usually mix it with almond milk. It was a little grainy but still mixed together well. Will buy again and try out the other flavors. Seems like a solid option for plant based protein source.

Great, but the flavor and texture could be better.

I find that the powder only blends well with alternative milks. Additionally the chia seeds and flax that are in the protein tend to clump. Highly recommend the warrior blend over the classic plus.

Love the chocolate flavor!

I don't love all the other flavors from this company but will continue to purchase the chocolate! The vanilla tastes great in a smoothie and the chocolate taste great in a blender bottle. Thanks for making a great product!

I Keep Coming Back for More

I use all three flavors. It's organic and contains multiple fermented plant protein sources for a complete amino profile. Taste works for me, which obviously is personal, and will depend on what you mix it with.

Tasty vegan-friendly protein

I enjoy SunWarrior. I've tried a few other brands but I keep coming back to SunWarrior. Vegan-friendly and reasonable price make it a solid choice. During my active seasons, it's added to my smoothies every day

Solid Go To Option

Sunwarrior classic plus protein powder is far less gritty than two other brands of plant based powders I have tried. Although some days the flavor seems faintly bland, overall it tastes good and is not too sweet.

Unflavored Version

On its own or in a shake it kind of tastes like dirt. But mixed in with pancakes or waffles 50/50 with a big pinch of salt, it adds a great boost of protein without really impacting the texture or flavor too negatively.

Enjoyed This Product

This product sat well in my stomach, and is very clean ingredient-wise. The price point at the store I work for an organic protein powder is amazing. I would definitely use this brand again.
