 to my channel and welcome if you're new here. I'm excited about today's video. I have literally gotten hundreds of questions about what protein powder am I going to be using or powders since I've made a clean approach to WW. So that prompted me to do a lot of research and we're talking hours and hours of research going to the store looking at all the protein powders, looking at the ingredients, calculating the smart points, all the things to try to figure out what the best and the worst protein powders are as far as ingredients go on the market. So again, I spent a lot of time doing this. It was very eye-opening for me. Some of my favorite protein powders fell towards the bottom of the list where the worst protein powders were found. So that was a little bit disappointing but also very eye-opening. So I'm here today to share with you the best all the way down to the worst when it comes to protein powders and this is ingredients only. So this is where the ingredients that make up the protein powder will categorize them into the best all the way down to the absolute worst protein powder. Speaking of protein powder, I just finished Jazzercise so I'm working on my protein shake right now. So let's jump into the best to the worst protein powders. So again, we are going to start with the best protein powder on the market. Now, I want to preface this with the fact that I obviously didn't go through every single solitary protein powder on the market. I went to several stores, Costco, and even went to some of the protein powders that are sold online and I looked at the ingredient label. So based on the 32 protein powders that I looked at, I ranked them best to worst as far as ingredients go. So we're going to start with the best protein powder on the market. And the number one best protein powder that I found on the market is the Nutiba hemp seed protein powder. This protein powder costs $16. It has 15 grams of protein. One scoop is going to cost you one smart point. There are no additives. It's non GMO vegan and literally it is made with one ingredient and that is organic hemp seed. So you can't get any cleaner than that literally one ingredient in this protein powder and you can't beat one scoop for one smart point. Number two is one that I've actually never seen before and this is the Aloha organic vanilla protein. This protein powder is about $25. 18 grams of protein in two scoops and two scoops is three smart points. There is no artificial anything. 13 real ingredients. It's plant based, no stevia, soy or dairy and it's non GMO as well. It is also kosher and it only has 13 ingredients which are all good whole clean ingredients. So highly recommend. Again I've never heard of this before so I'm actually really excited to give this protein powder a try myself. So starting with protein number three we're getting into proteins that have maybe one or two in some of them a lot of not the most desirable ingredients. It's very unfortunate that I was only able to find those two proteins that were full of real clean ingredients. So we're gonna play a little bit of devil's advocate and we're gonna go from the best of the worst to the worst of the worst. So protein number three is one that I actually purchased myself based on the recommendations of a clean eating YouTuber that I follow and that is the less naked way in vanilla. Now I really really like this protein powder. It is really delicious. So let's go over some of the information about the less naked way in the flavor of vanilla. So it is about $22 on Amazon. I'll link it down below for you guys. 25 grams of protein. One scoop is going to cost you three smart points. So it is 100% grass fed which I love. There's no hormones, no soy, no GMO, no gluten and they cold pressed the protein powder instead of processing it at a high heat. Now anytime you process anything at a high heat it's not the most desirable. You're better off doing a cold press similar to oils. You always want to look for an expeller pressed oil because that means it's cold pressed versus processed with heat and chemicals. I also love that this protein powder has six grams of BCAAs which is amazing. That's actually what I drink in my beyond raw. I'll put a picture of that for you guys. But that's what I drink after I work out because it helps with recovery. So I love that this protein powder actually has six grams of BCAAs and what I love the most about this protein powder is the sweetener is organic coconut sugar. Now this is the best sugar you can possibly buy. We talked a lot about this in my sugars video. So if you haven't seen that I'll link that down below. Lots of great information in that video. But organic coconut sugar is the best of the best and this protein powder is sweetened with that. Now the one ingredient in this protein powder that made it drop to number three on my list was that it contains natural vanilla flavor. Now I've talked about natural flavors a lot on my channel but I kind of want to visit it really quickly. Natural flavors means artificial flavors. So when you see natural flavor on a label you're not getting natural anything. It is literally chemical artificial flavors. So just remember that when you're looking over your ingredient labels that natural flavor means artificial flavor. Now when it comes to foods or protein powders I would much rather see natural flavor than a lot of the other not so good ingredients that we'll go over a little bit later in this video. So that is number three on the best protein powders. Number four is the growing naturals pea protein. Before I give you the specifics on this back to natural flavors a little bit just so you guys know whenever a protein powder is flavored generally it is going to have natural flavors. It's very rare that you're going to find a protein powder that's flavored vanilla chocolate strawberry that doesn't contain natural flavor. So just keep that in mind as we're going through this list. So let's talk about this protein powder. This falls as number four because it is $18 15 grams of protein one scoop is going to cost you one smart point. It is raw non-gmo kosher and again they use coconut sugar as their sweetener which is absolutely amazing. The only thing that I don't like is it has natural chocolate flavor. So again because it's a flavored protein we're finding natural flavor but you know what if that's the only thing that's questionable I'll take it. Number five is the garden of life raw organic sprouted meal. Now when you think raw organic sprouted you're thinking holy moly this protein powder is top notch. Yeah it's pretty darn good. It falls as number five. This protein powder is going to cost you about $45 so it's a little on the expensive side. One scoop is two smart points and will give you 20 grams of protein. It is clean from legumes seeds grains and contains all sprouted ingredients which is amazing. As you know I love sprouted bread because it's just more in its natural state so I really like that about this protein powder. Now again the only questionable ingredient is it contains organic vanilla flavor and here's a caveat. Even though it's organic doesn't mean that because it has vanilla flavoring that it's natural. It is still artificial flavor it's just organic. Number six is from the same company as number five and that is the garden of life organic protein so this isn't raw and sprouted this is just their general organic protein. I took a look at the chocolate flavor of this protein. This is going to cost you about $30 it is 20 grams of protein and one scoop is going to cost you two smart points. Again it is clean from seeds legumes and grains. There are two ingredients in this protein powder that I'm not that excited about. Number one is it has natural flavor but number two it contains urethra tall. Luckily the amount of urethra tall in this protein powder is so minimal that it actually shows zero on the nutritional label so that made it kind of bump to number six over some of the other protein powders even though I don't like that it contains urethra tall it's such a trace amount that they don't even have to list it on the nutritional label. Number seven is a protein that I know a lot of you are going to be familiar with and this is the vega sport protein. I went ahead and looked at the vanilla flavor of this protein. What I like about this protein is it has 30 grams of protein in one scoop and one scoop is only two smart points. It is about $45 it is plant-based it has five grams of bcaa it's gluten-free non-gmo vegan and organic so all of that I love about this protein powder and again the one thing that's on the ingredient label that I'm not so excited about is that it also contains natural flavor to make it vanilla but again all of the seven that we just talked about worst case is it has some natural flavor which again is better than a lot of the ingredients we're going to be talking about in some of these other protein powders. Number eight is from the same company as number seven and this is just the vega vanilla protein so this is just their standard vega brand of vanilla protein this is going to cost you $25 there is 20 grams of protein in a scoop and each scoop is going to cost you two smart points it is plant-based and organic and again the only ingredient I don't love is natural flavor so that is number eight on the list. Number nine was a protein powder I've never heard of before it is called biochem and it is a sugar-free whey protein and I took a good hard look at the chocolate flavor of this protein this protein is about $22 so it's reasonable 20 grams of protein in one scoop and one scoop is going to cost you one smart point it is non-gmo there are no artificial hormones it is 99% lactate free so that is what causes stomach issues and people that struggle with milk product and what I love most about this is it is made from grass-fed cows so that is amazing I love that about this protein powder what I don't love is that it also contains natural flavors so you're seeing a pattern so starting with about protein powder number three to where we are right now we're really seeing the only questionable ingredient being natural flavors it's still not something I you want to see in a nutritional label but it's certainly better than a lot of the other ingredients so take note that we've seen a lot of natural flavors and that's what made these not in those top spots on our ranking number 10 is a brand I've never heard of either and this was purely inspired organic protein so I like that it does have organic in the title this protein powder is going to cost you $20 it has 22 grams of protein in two scoops and two scoops is two smart points it is dairy and soy free it is also vegan it is plant-based and it contains no sugar alcohols which I love but unfortunately in the ingredient list we see natural flavors but we also see rice syrup solids so I didn't really know what rice syrup solids was so I looked it up I'm going to go ahead and insert the definition of rice solid but basically it's a sugar that's going to affect your blood sugar level so it's just not something that ideally we want to see in a protein powder and that's what dropped this one down under all of the other ones that also contained natural flavors number 11 is another extremely popular protein powder in fact I have two of the flavors here at my house and that is the toned up organic protein powder I took a look at the one in chocolate that protein powder is about $32 it will deliver 15 grams of protein and one scoop is one a smart point it is a vegan non-gmo gluten-free plant-based and has no added sugars the bad thing is it also contains natural flavors once again we see natural flavors I don't know why companies especially if they're making a vanilla-based protein powder don't just use vanilla extract or chocolate-based protein powder don't just use cocoa or cacao powder to make their chocolate base listen at protein companies these would be much better if they didn't contain natural flavors so number 12 is similar to number 11 but this is the toned up protein powders non-organic so these are actually the ones that I have I have the coconut and one other flavor I think vanilla on hand at my house so this one is a little less expensive it's $27 it still delivers 15 grams of protein and one scoop is still one smart point it is plant-based vegan gluten-free and non-gmo the only difference it is not organic so that's where you're seeing about that five dollar price difference between this one and the organic toned up is because of it being organic so keep that in mind the only thing again with this protein powder that I'm not a big fan of is the natural flavors now once we start number 13 we're getting into the protein powders that have more not so desirable ingredients unfortunately and it's just going to get worse my friends before it gets better so number 13 is plant fusion in the chocolate flavor this protein powder is $32 you're going to get 21 grams of protein in one scoop and one scoop is two smart points it is plant-based gluten-free non-gmo vegan and I do like that it is free from the nine most common allergens so that is a nice feature in this protein powder now the issue with this protein powder is it has natural flavors but it also contains stevia leaf extract now you're thinking what's the big deal you said stevia was good in your sugar video yes I did but there is a difference between stevia and stevia leaf extract so stevia itself is extracted from the stevia leaf in its raw organic form now stevia leaf extract is what is extracted from the stevia plant using heat and chemicals so unfortunately if you see stevia leaf extract it makes it a little more questionable on whether or not that's a food item you would want to put in your body because it is so heavily processed and chemicals are used to get the stevia leaf out stevia leaf extract out of the stevia leaf so sorry number 13 that alone dropped you down number 14 was another protein powder I had never seen before and this is the mrm egg white protein powder interesting right that it's just an egg white protein powder so this protein powder is going to cost you 24 it delivers 23 grams of protein and one scoop is three smart points there are no artificial colors or flavors which I love and no dairy but do I love it am I speaking too soon because when I look at the ingredient label natural flavors I thought they said there were no artificial or natural flavors I'm on to you mrm and I also see stevia leaf extract and on a side note it's non-organic and I think buying an organic protein is always better than buying a non-organic protein so watch your ingredient labels don't be fooled by what's in print on your protein powder container I see you mrm number 15 is another protein powder that I've seen but I wasn't that familiar with and this is the designer way designer protein in chocolate now that's a mouthful so this protein powder is going to cost you $15 so very affordable 20 grams of protein and it is two smart points for a serving there's no added sugar no artificial flavors sweeteners or colors it is gluten-free and kosher but once again when we get down to the ingredient label I see natural flavors they just told me there were no artificial flavors and as we've talked about natural flavors are artificial flavors so again really watch your ingredient label not the marketing on the front of the container this one also contains stevia leaf extract again and is not organic so this one is tied pretty much with the other one we're just putting these in a consecutive numbered order from here on out number 16 is a common brand at a crowbar or a fred meyer and this is the simple truth way in the flavor of vanilla now this protein powder is going to cost you $13 so very affordable there is 18 grams of protein in one scoop and one scoop is one smart point but again are there because when I look at the label I find again natural flavors and I also see that this is not organic so those three are pretty equal as far as where they fall on the list and good versus bad as far as protein powders go because they all pretty much contain natural flavors in stevia leaf but now that we're over halfway through number 17 starts to get a little bit scary number 17 comes from the same one as number 16 and this is the simple truth brand again but this is their plant-based vanilla so you think plant-based this has got to be better than just their regular vanilla protein not so fast my friends this is going to cost you $23 it delivers 20 grams of protein in one scoop and one scoop is one smart point it is gluten-free soy-free vegan and non-gmo but wait until you read the ingredient label this protein powder has natural flavors natural chai flavor so two types of natural flavors and it has sunflower oil you never want to see an oil in any food like sunflower canola vegetable unless it is expeller press same philosophy as a stevia leaf extract when you see just regular sunflower oil that means that it's been processed very heavily by high heat which removes all of the good fat and turns it into more of a trans fat and they process a lot of these oils with hexane so you want to stay away from these unless it specifically says expeller press this one does not and lastly it is not organic number 18 is a brand we've all seen and we refer to this brand as a healthy brand and this is the bobs red mill vanilla nutritional booster so this is bobs red mill version of a protein powder it is going to cost you $25 it has 20 grams of protein and one third cup which is a lot is for smart point it is gluten free and it contains omega threes but when you see the ingredients i don't understand i really don't understand in bobs red mill the healthy name that we are all aware of you're going to find ingredients such as natural flavors natural flavored vanilla powder whatever that is and the weirdest ingredient of all is corn starch why on earth is there corn starch in protein powder and corn starch is heavily processed and made from gmo corn so you never even want to eat corn starch normally more or less in your protein powder what happened bob number 19 is the organ organic protein powder and chocolate fudge now organ is another brand of protein powder that we consider to be healthy it's one that we see a lot in the stores but unfortunately it's not what appears so this protein powder is going to cost you $19 so it's pretty darn affordable you get 21 grams of protein in two scoops and two scoops is three smart points it is plant-based and vegan great but what about the ingredients you are going to find ingredients such as natural flavor organic natural flavors and urethra tall but the problem with the urethra tall is it's five grams of urethra tall that is a lot in one scoop of protein powder the bill bar for comparison that entire bill bar has two grams of urethra tall so in one scoop of protein powder you're getting one and a half times that amount of urethra tall and urethra tall can have an effect on your gut and your good gut bacteria so i certainly don't want to see five grams in protein powder number 20 is a brand of vitamins that i've purchased myself i actually really like their sleep vitamins and this is the ollie or ollie i'm not sure exactly how you pronounce this but they make a plant-based protein powder it is going to cost you $20 it has 18 grams of protein in two scoops and two scoops is three smart points it is plant-based non-gmo and gluten-free but the problem again is we see natural flavors but in addition to natural flavor we see cane sugar cane sugar is white table sugar the worst of the worst when it comes to sugars again if you haven't seen my sugar video highly recommend you watch it it is very eye-opening again it is linked down in the description box so why couldn't they use a different sugar like a coconut sugar like some of our other top-notch protein brands that would have made it much better it would have put it way up on the list because all it would have contained at that point is natural flavors but cane sugar no number 21 is a very well-known brand of protein bar that is pure protein so they also make a protein powder so that makes sense they make protein bars and protein powders so this is their pure protein protein powder in french vanilla whoo another tongue twister this is going to cost you 20 it will give you 23 grams of protein one scoop is three smart points it is low fat and they say that there is no artificial flavors but the ingredient label tells us that there are natural flavors and on top of natural flavors they are putting in fructose and fructose is worse than cane sugar fructose is a very heavily processed liquid form of cane sugar we talk about this in the sugar video as well definitely don't want to see fructose in anything especially in a protein powder that you're paying a good amount of money for and this protein powder is not organic as well number 22 is a protein powder that is sold online through a multi-level marketing mlm and that is the shake ology protein powder this is their vegan protein it is going to cost you are you ready for this are you sitting down 130 dollars for a bag of protein it has 16 grams of protein so not even high in protein and one scoop is actually four smart points it has a low gi impact four to six grams of fiber which is great they have their proprietary superfruit blend which actually had some really amazing superfruits in it and it is their also proprietary vegan blend but when we look at the ingredient label my friends at shake ology we are finding not so good ingredients i see cane sugar again cane sugar you're putting this in a product that promotes weight loss and working out you're putting cane sugar in your protein powder i also see natural flavors and i also see stevia leaf extract and you're paying 130 dollars for protein powder that is not organic now all of you beach body people do not come for me i am strictly saying what facts i found on your shake ology website about your protein powder i put it in the mix at a little bit under halfway mark as far as worst and best protein powders so in my opinion i wouldn't pay 130 dollars for a protein powder that falls as number 22 out of 32 number 23 is another shake ology product this is their shake ology way protein so this is different than the other protein in number 22 this protein powder is also 130 dollars for a bag in that 130 dollar bag you're going to get 17 grams of protein so one more gram than the vegan and one scoop is three smart points so one point less than the vegan so again it has low gi impact four to six grams of fiber and their proprietary superfruit blend which i actually again really like what's in that superfruit blend but in this protein powder you're also going to be finding again cane sugar natural flavors stevia leaf extract and it's non-organic and it's 130 dollars so their two shake ology products are very similar in ingredients one's vegan and one is it but again 130 dollars i don't know guys number 24 is where a revisit to the pure protein brand of protein powder this is their superfood blend superfood blend in vanilla this protein powder is going to cost 17 dollars so it's pretty affordable 20 grams of protein in one scoop and it's three points it is plant-based non-gmo and they state that there are no artificial flavors or colors so when we flip it over and we look at that ingredient label we find natural flavor which is an artificial flavor so again incorrect information on the packaging cane sugar stevia leaf extract and now it's getting worse we have carrageenan and i talk about carrageenan in my ingredients video that went up recently carrageenan is a major inflammatory and should be absolutely avoided i avoided it out of my diet when i made this transition and you guys the difference is astronomical as far as joint recovery and not feeling sore and bloated and just inflamed i can't believe the difference of cutting carrageenan out i don't eat it at all it is made from algae and actually physicians use this to inflame patients for medical procedures so not good i don't ever want to see carrageenan in the fact that it's in a protein powder with natural flavors stevia leaf extract all the other terrible ingredients i definitely stay away from that one number 25 is our beloved w w protein powder my friends this falls at number 25 out of 32 now the w w protein powder is going to cost you 17 dollars it delivers 25 grams of protein and one scoop is costing two smart points it is gluten free and vegetarian but you guys the ingredients once again are natural flavors we also have stevia leaf extract and we once again have carrageenan oh my gosh why why do we have carrageenan i know it's an emulsifier but come on there are other options out there for paying a lot of money for protein powder it shouldn't have carrageenan in it and the weight watchers or w w protein powder isn't organic either now number 26 broke my heart a little bit devotion you guys might be loved devotion protein powder falls at number 26 on the list 26 out of 32 now devotion the price point on that is 40 it delivers 20 grams of protein and one scoop is anywhere from one to two smart points just depending on the flavor it is gluten free it does have two grams of mct oil which i love about that it also has no added sugar and it doesn't spike your aminos so those are great things about devotion but then if you flip it over and you look at the ingredient label it contains natural flavor which again all of the flavor protein powders that we've covered pretty much contain natural flavor it also contains sucralose which is another not good sugar sucralose is basically splendor and it's one of the worst sugar options or sugar alternatives that you can choose and they put that in there because sucralose tastes a lot like regular sugar and that's why devotion doesn't have any weird or bizarre aftertaste but sucralose really really spikes your blood sugar and should be avoided unless it's in very very small doses and only if you absolutely have to consume it there's also carrageenan in devotion why devotion why and it is not organic so as much as i love devotion protein powder i still have brownie batter in my pantry it's not a protein powder that i will most likely continue using once the stash that i have is gone i'm sorry to say devotion you know i love you number 27 is another protein powder that's it was in my pantry i actually just threw this out because not for one i didn't really care for it and for two it's number 27 on the list and that is the ghost protein in the fruity cereal flavor sounds delicious right it's going to cost you about 40 so it's pretty pricey it delivers 25 grams of protein one scoop is two smart points now the issues that i have with the ghost protein powder is that it contains natural flavor and it also once again life devotion contains sucralose and it's not organic so at the $40 price point it just doesn't make sense when there's less expensive protein powders out there that deliver much better ingredients at a much better price point number 28 is another brand that we all love and that is quest quest protein powder i know it's extremely popular i see it all over social media but you guys it falls almost to the worst of the worst when it comes to protein powder i reviewed the quest vanilla it is going to cost you 30 it contains 24 grams of protein and one scoop is a measly one smart point the issue with quest vanilla is it has four yes four ingredients that are not desirable natural flavor again it uses sucralose which is the splendor not so good sugar alternative and they also use stevia glycosides so basically what that is is once again it is from the stevia plant but it is processed down so it's less expensive for them to use it and it's about 300 times sweeter than white table sugar so not only are they using sucralose they're also using stevia glycosides which is a heavily processed version of stevia and in addition to that there's carrageenan so four ingredients none of which all of which i would say away from and unfortunately that's what makes quest protein powder one of the worst options as far as ingredients go for protein powders now number 29 was very interesting so this is three from the bottom number 29 is from another mlm or company out there called arbor and when i first looked this up i knew that they were a plant-based protein powder so i kind of expected their ingredients to be pretty darn good no no no no no no so arbor is going to cost you 77 dollars it has 20 grams of protein and it is four smart points for one scoop it is non-gmo vegan and contains 24 minerals great and then you take a look at the ingredient label of a 70 protein powder you are going to find cane sugar so once again raw white table sugar natural flavors of course you're also going to find stevia leaf extract worst of the worst sunflower oil it is not expel or press sunflower oil it is heavily processed gmo sunflower oil and again why arbor and if you're going to charge a premium price for a product it should contain premium ingredients it most certainly shouldn't fall three from the bottom of the worst of the worst as far as ingredients go of protein powders number 30 is another protein powder we're all going to be very familiar with at least visually and it is found at Costco it is optimum nutrition gold and it comes in that white or that red black and gold bag it is going to cost you 58 but it's a huge bag 24 grams of protein one scoop is one smart point oh my gosh you guys the ingredients on this protein powder these last three i was literally floored when i read the ingredient labels it has natural and artificial flavors so basically all artificial flavors sunflower oil once again it contains sunflower oil which is not expel or press so it's made from gmo corn and it also has maltodextrin now maltodextrin is a very very cheap byproducts of corn that they put in to products so maltodextrin is produced from vegetable starch so gmo vegetable starch it has an extremely high impact on your blood sugar level so it's really one of the things that should be avoided it can also cause stomach upset as well and in addition to maltodextrin there is also superlose so it has four not good ingredients it's not an organic protein powder it is pretty pricey granted you get a pretty large bag but oh my gosh you guys those ingredients no number 31 is a protein powder that i've seen but wasn't that familiar with and now i know why that is the mp protein powder from a company called muscle farm like pharmacy this protein powder is expensive it's $47 it contains 25 grams of protein and one scoop is two smart points it is gluten free that's the one thing that it has going for it because the ingredients are super scary that's what makes this almost the worst protein powder as far as ingredients go first there is rice flour rice flour is basically white flour should be avoided it is heavily processed oftentimes processed with bleach on top of rice flour and also contains sugar traditional white table sugar also it has other starches tapioca starch and corn starch once again it contains corn starch why also natural and artificial flavors and we're still going my friends it contains palm oil palm oil is the worst most heavily processed oil with hexane that you can possibly buy the only palm oil you should ever eat is red palm oil it's very expensive it's very hard to find it's very rarely in foods unless they're a premium expensive food so by them putting palm oil in here you're getting trans fat that you didn't even know that you were getting in a protein powder that's supposed to be healthy and number 32 the worst that i found as far ingredients goes the worst was from a brand called not naturally i believe it's naturally not charade pro p protein you guys oh my okay so this protein powder is going to cost you $20 it delivers 20 grams of protein and it is two smart points on the label it claims that it is a vegan 100% free of soy dairy it is gluten free it doesn't have any cholesterol that all sounds pretty good right then you read the ingredients and it's a laundry list of ingredients starting with multodextrin so once again we're seeing multodextrin in this protein powder we also have natural and artificial flavoring sunflower oil xylitol and urethritol so we're putting in two sugar alternatives xylitol is deadly to dogs and should be consumed at very very small amounts by humans and we all know that urethritol can cause a huge spike in blood sugar as well as stomach upset and they're putting both of these in this protein powder there is also stevia leaf extract and we're not done there's still one more ingredient and that is carrageenan so we have a laundry list of ingredients in this protein powder if you are going to avoid one protein powder on the market it needs to be this one there is nothing healthy about this it is full of ingredients that are going to spike your blood sugar cause stomach upset and also ingredients that your body really doesn't even know how to process and this is claiming to be a healthy protein powder all right so we went from the best to the worst when it comes to protein powder my goodness gracious you guys isn't it crazy how companies can advertise no artificial flavors on the front of a container of protein powder but in reality it has artificial flavors in it it's so crazy to me that the marketing companies of these brands can make it look so good and healthy from the outside but the minute you turn it over and really take a hard look at the ingredient label it's something that you don't want to eat so i recommend that you stick with maybe the top five to ten of the protein powders and stay away from at least the bottom ten of the protein powder but most definitely number 32 that one holy moly i could not believe that ingredient label when i turned that around so i hope that this helps you guys out when it comes to protein powder again i've been getting a ton of questions i do also want to end this video on this note this is my personal opinion based on the research that i did and by reading the ingredient labels of the protein powders that i'm finding at my local store health food store online some of these multi-level marketing companies and even at our w w workshops so my opinion is based on the information that i found on the ingredient label and that's where i ranked these protein powders of course feel free to do your own research it's highly recommended that you do your own research and make of course the decision on what products you want to consume that work best for you this is just once again my personal opinion and i wanted to share it with you guys because i've been getting bombarded with questions on protein powder and in fact i've been wondering what the heck am i going to have for protein powder i love protein shakes i love throwing it in my smoothies and my smoothie bowls so this was a really good educational video for myself as well so i hope you enjoyed and you took away some valuable information if
