MET-Rx Metamyosyn Protein Plus Whey Isolate and Casein Protein Powder, Great for Meal Replacement Shakes, Low Carb, Gluten Free, Vanilla, 2 lbs

I eat a lot of raw vegetables, salads, steamed vegetables and fruits. I rarely eat any meat, mostly on the weekends. I mainly use this as a supplement as opposed to a meal replacement.As you can see from my photo, I mix it with almond milk, frozen banana, mixed berries and flax seed. The combination of the mixed ingredients make this so enjoyable. 22 grams of protein and only 1 gram of sugar and 1 gram of carbohydrate makes this a very good product for diabetics like myself. This actually helps me control my blood sugar because I crave less sweets and bread, which is the worst thing for a diabetic. I definitely get more sugars from the frozen fruit than the protein itself.I lift weights, but I'm not a body builder or a pro athlete, so I couldn't tell you anything about muscle gain or body fat percentage, but I am a pretty lean guy and I am fairly active.I have tried several different protein powders such as Muscle Milk, Trader Joe's, Myoplex, etc. This my favorite and it tastes great. If you don't care for the taste, just mix a frozen banana with it. It makes a huge difference.

I tried this both as chocolate and vanilla. Not a bodybuilder, but it's great after a long day of yard work or biking or whatever to not be as sore the next day.Chocolate is denser and works best if you let it sit for 15 minutes or so after you mix it, then mix it again before you drink it. It also had a horrible, horrible fake sweetener kind of taste. So nasty I didn't drink it a lot when I should have because the flavor was just so nasty.Vanilla is fluffy but doesn't dissolve as easily as chocolate. I use a whisk to blend, and doing that turns my shake into a dense foam that reminds me of cake batter or warm vanilla soft serve. The flavor is much more mild and no artificial nasty chemical taste. Mixes much better with fruit, etc, flavor wise. This would be perfect if it just dissolved more easily.

LOVE IT!So, I never had taken proteins before as I was not into exercise and stuff, but now I'm 21 even though i feel definitely happy with my body, I wanted to start a healthier lifestyle and to build a little bit of muscles. After a loooot of reading and searching, I AM SO HAPPY I CHOSE THIS PROTEIN. First thing is that tastes fantastic, it's like a prize when you finish your workouts. Second and most important thing, I'm actually seeing results ant it helps with anxiety. I'm finishing my third jar and I just received the fourth one! I have no time to go to the Gym like very often because I have a full time job and I go to college, but I'm very religious with doing exercise at home no mater what time it is. I'm always trying to find effective routines to do at home. I don't believe in diets because to me, it's a waist of time, c'mon, you will spend 1 or 2 months killing yourself, starving to get skinnier and after that whole sacrifice YOU'LL GO BACK TO YOUR HORRIBLE HABITS, and that's the reason why you end up in an eating disorder!!!! Plus, when you work and study, most of the time, you don't even have the time to think on eating healthy. Therefore, I've tried to drink a lot of water (which I hate but is the best thing you can do for your body) and to be religious with my exercises.But this protein is the BEST! The shipment it's always on time, I just had a problem once and Amazon solved for me. So I definitely recommend this if you don't wanna be a bodybuilder, yet, you want to be on shape.

I use this to lose weight and find that I like the fact that the amino acids are gradually absorbed. The flavor is nice with no after taste. I make it using 1/2 skim milk and 1/2 water when not adding anything else to it. I use just water when adding fruit to make smoothies. I've always used protein powder at least once a day when dieting and I make sure to drink it for breakfast to kick start my metabolism. The product fulfills most of my expectations however I wish it would have a few of the important vitamins included as well, which is the reason for 4 stars rather than 5 stars. After my protein drink in the morning, throughout the day I eat about another 3-4 times, fruits and vegetables. Sometimes I'll make a very small protein drink if I'm feeling hungry but normally I don't have to do that, I don't get hungry on this diet. I've lost 10 pounds during this first week. I'm getting a little closer to my goal weight then I'll eat more normally but eat a low carb, low fat diet with the protein power as my breakfast as maintenance for awhile. That way I will keep the weight lost off. I has worked all my life so I'm glad to have found this powder with a good taste and amino acids but wish it had L-Carnitine to help with the fat metabolism. But this protein powder is very close to what I was looking for and the price was within my range plus it works well for me and would buy again.

Great

I've tried a few different protein powders, though I wouldn't say that my experience is comprehensive. The MET-Rx Protein Plus is the best I've tried. It has the right ingredients, is low in carbs, and tastes fantastic. I initially tried the chocolate flavor and it was decent. I avoided the vanilla flavor because, in my experience, vanilla "flavored" things tend to have an unpalatable chemical taste to them. When the local place I was getting this from was out of chocolate, I reluctantly bought the vanilla. I was incredibly surprised. This stuff really tastes good. Mixed with coconut milk, it actually tastes like a real vanilla milk shake. After doing that for a while, I made the switch to mixing it with straight water (in order to reduce the number of calories) and, while not as thick and rich as the coconut milk mixture, it is still quite good. Adjust the amount of water to adjust the thickness if you need to. I can't recommend this stuff highly enough.The only downside is that, for some reason or another, it takes two more days to be delivered than normal things I've ordered on Prime.
