Excellent protein, especially for morning shakes!
For those who have decided to not consume whey proteins, this is an excellent vegan option. Because it does not contain fiber, it is an excellent choice to make a smoothie with first thing in the morning. I like using proteins that contain hemp, chia, and other fibers in them for later in the day or after a workout. But as a first thing in the morning with the Green Max Powder mixed in, this pea protein is great if you want a breakfast smoothie. I have read from various sources that consuming fiber first thing in the morning is not always best because it interrupts the cleansing process that the body is still undergoing from sleeping all night. This protein is a great way to get early morning protein, mix in powdered greens, some almond milk, and a serving of fruit in the blender and you can get some initial nutrition and keep the cleansing going until you consume fiber a little bit later. So the pea protein is best for the mornings, and then I like plant proteins like hemp and chia seed (life basics chocolate is awesome) for after workouts or later in the day.

Works like a charm :)
Tastes great, builds muscle, all natural, high volume/dollar ratio. What more can I say... this is the premier vegetarian protein out there, sold effectively by Swanson. Definitely reccomended A++

The best So Far!
I orginally was using a pea and brown rice protein mix that was running over $50 for 2 pounds. I started using this protein and love the taste. I mix in a blender with juice or with fruit and juice. I tried cheaper pea proteins that left me gaging on the power due to the protein not blending well. I'm sticking to this brand! I'm going to try to mix in Brown Rice Protein to build a better amino acid profile. Since using these shakes for breakfast and after and before workouts, my body composition looks MUCH better! Try this!!
