HEALTH WARRIOR Superfood Protein Powder, Vanilla, 18 Servings, 20g Plant-Based Protein, Vegan, Non-GMO, Gluten Free, Paleo, Stevia Free, Low Sugar, Probiotics and Prebiotics

First things first: to compare this protein powder, you need to compare it to other sugar-free or low sugar (1-2g) powders. Will it taste the same as one of the brands with 10-20g of sugar per serving? Of course not. But you're also not eating 10-20g of sugar. So its really a question of how does it stack up to the other low-sugar brands. My usual go-to for protein powder is Vega Organic Protein & Greens from Costco, and sometimes Flexitarian's "Flex Vegan" power, so I was curious to see how this would compare to those two.Ingredients: Health Warrior wins this one handily. There's no stevia/artificial sweetners (Flexitarian & Vega both use Stevia), with HW using monk fruit extract. It's also the shortest ingredient list of the bunch, and truly "clean"Nutrition: HW wins on fiber, but doesn't have the "extra" vitamins like Vega does. Vega has Vitamin K, Folate, and a few more vitamins/minerals that HW doesn't, though the tradeoff is a longer ingredient list. All 3 brands have 20-21g of protein, and fiber is 2g with Flexitarian, 4g with Vega, and 5g with HW. HW is the only brand I've seen so far with probiotics, which is a nice touch. It's always possible that other brands may follow suit eventually, but for now this is the only non- or low-sugar brand I've seen with probiotics. Personally I prefer the probiotics to the extra vitamins Vega has since I already take a multi-vitamin, but it really depends what you're most looking to get out of a shake.Taste: I'll admit, I'm not a huge fan of the taste of any of the low-sugar powders. They all basically taste the same to me, though HW dissolved well. I could discern a bit of an aftertaste from the Monk Fruit in the HW powder, but it was definitely better than the pretty strong Stevia aftertaste from Vega or Flexitarian. The instructions said to add 8-10 oz of liquid, and I blended with unsweetened almond milk, but I found the flavor was too strong with 8oz -- I preferred 10 oz. If the flavor of any of the powders is too strong, you'll like it better in a smoothie. Blend this puppy with some fruit and almond milk, and it tastes great.On the whole the Health Warrior powder is a great option, it's the cleanest label I've found that also has 'best in class' protein and fiber, plus probiotics. The taste is fine (on par or slightly better with other low sugar options) and it dissolves really well without any of the clumps of other brands I've tried. I've included a few pics below of the three brands, and the Health Warrior nutrition label (blue) vs Vega (white).

So many products contain non-paleo additives. I've been looking for a non-collagen based protein powder for a long time, but had been unable to find one until I came across this recently.I've only ever used the vanilla and it has a very earthy, natural taste. I use it with coconut milk, blueberries, banana, or mixed berries, which is pretty tasty! My very food-picky partner even likes it! I also make a banana chocolate smoothie and the chocolate completely covers the taste, if you don't care for it.1/3 cup Thai Kitchen lowfat coconut milk, 2/3 cup water, 1 scoop Superfood Protein Powder, one banana, 3/4 cup berries. Or instead of berries, add several tablespoons of cocoa powder and a little monk fruit sweetener. It makes a nice, thick 'milkshake'!Overall I'm very pleased with this product and am happy to have a non-animal based protein powder.

My first time trying this product. I got the chocolate flavor and just made some with Vanilla flavored soy milk. It’s pretty good! Tastes similar to the chocolate protein drinks I buy for breakfast. The only downside is I was a tad disappointed to find the container is not full of powder. It’s not even 3/4 full of powder. It’s about half full of powder. I took photos as soon as I opened it to show what I mean. I figured some settling occurs but that seems like too much settling to me. Otherwise, I am looking forward to adding this powder to increase my daily intake of protein.

I LOVE this powder. And it NEEDS to be blended in a blender with unsweetened chocolate almond milk, 2-3 ice cubes, and 2 tsp natural peanut butter. It is delicious. A bit gritty but I like the texture. And it is not sweet and I do not taste the monk fruit. It makes a delicious meal replacement. I look forward to my shake everyday. Before I bought this I tried Fitmiss Protein Powder and it had too much crap in it! It gave me terrible side effects: headache, heart palpitations. Then I found this all natural and delicious. The chocolate and vanilla! I will be buying monthly!

It has an impressive list of ingredients but it is the worst tasting powdered protein I have ever tasted. If you simply don’t care how it tastes I would recommend it. But its bland flavor prevents me from giving it a higher score.

Just tried this product for the first time after realizing my stomach upset has been caused by another vegan protein powder. I checked out at least 30 other vegan protein powders before buying this one. I will definitely buy it again barring any unforeseen issues with it.The taste isn’t bad - doesn't sound like much of a selling point, but it is. I have tried to find a powder that doesn’t have any ‘gum’ in it (xanthan or otherwise) that doesn't sacrifice taste. This is the best I have found thus far, so when I say it doesn’t taste bad, that is a good thing. But no, it doesn’t taste like a vanilla bean.A plus for me, this has flax, chia and hemp seed in it. I usually added all three to my smoothies so now, this is a one stop shop for that.

Product only half full!!

Unsavory taste. Will clump with mixing. Tried both vanilla and chocolate. Would not order again.
