"Best" non-flavored protein powder?
Hey fellow VSGers ...
I posted in the main forum asking about whether I should drink cow milk (has carbs and protein) or soy milk (has more protein, less carbs, but also phytoestrogens, possible not good for man-boobs). People asked me why I was making shakes with either at all, and it's because I'm trying to get a protein boost.... getting in 70-100 grams a day is tough.
As a scientist, I often overthink things, and a few people told me to just add more protein powder in, duh. They recommended a non-flavored protein powder into my semi-solids like cottage cheese and yogurt to really get the protein up.
I hadn't seen unflavored protein powders before. What do you guys like? Isopure? Unjury? I know I can do a search and find something, but I like a 'fresh' look in case something new is out. Also, where do you buy them at a good price?

Syntrax Nectar sounds like it would fit the bill.
It's my fav unflavored & flavored.. no carbs.
Here's an email I got when I contacted them about samples.. the only one that they don't send is the unflavored.. I buy that in big tubs as I use it in my coffee..
eta: I prefer them diluted vs mixing them strong.. but they are very good.. mix with room temp water, then add ice. Don't use a blender, or blenderball.. just a shaker or small whisk..
