Jarrow FormulasWhey Protein with 18 g of Protein, 3.8 g of BCAAs, and Glutamine, Dietary Supplement for Muscle Function and Recovery Support, 32 oz Unflavored Powder, Approximately 38 Day Supply

Even before I was keto I was using this product. I always liked that it didn't have any sweeteners or extra carbs that serve no purpose for me gaining muscle. All I want is muscle...not just the weight. I had gotten away from taking protein at all, but was glad to see Jarrow's was still available when I returned to serious weightlifting. It tastes the same to me as before. Plain - it doesn't taste that good, but it mixes easily and now that I've experimented with Stevia and espresso, I have actually found a way to make this taste good.Double shot of espresso, double scoop of Jarrows, 1 packet Stevia, mix with about a cup of water and add ice. That is one healthful cup of iced coffee, great for preworkout. If later in the day I use decaf.Another note - I don't take this product every day. I only use it as a supplement if maybe I'm not that hungry and won't be getting enough protein through my normal diet...which I've mentioned is keto. Some days I'm already approaching 150g protein in my diet and taking whey would be just a waste.

I've used this for years, after deciding there had to be something better than the artificially flavored protein powders found at the big box stores. Best tip -- don't add this to anything hot, or you'll get tiny, unpleasant, cheesy lumps.I love it in my morning coffee but blend it into an inch of coffee in my mug plus a splash of cold milk. A battery powered frother works fine for that, and yes it will make great froth!.Alternatively, I'll mix it up in a big batch using my NutraBullet (3 scoops in 16 oz milk gives me about 1 serving of protein per oz). Mixing it the night before helps it dissolve completely and also gives time for the foam to settle.My dad is recovering from a hospital stay and having trouble eating, so we're putting this into every glass of milk. He likes the milk even better with the added whey protein, says it's creamier and goes down more easily. I've added it to instant pudding and even to jello (blend with the cold water before adding it to the hot water plus jello powder), and it's all gone over well.I haven't tried baking with it yet, but Dad's nutritionist suggested putting it into anything from cookies to muffins. I think as long as I dissolve it into a liquid ingredient before mixing & baking, that should work fine.Needless to say, it's great in smoothies. A scoop of the powder, 6 oz yogurt, 1/4 to 1/2 cup frozen fruit, and a spash of milk... even if he doesn't finish it, Dad gets enough protein to have it count as a decent meal. My seldom-hungry daughter will have a smoothie when nothing else appeals, also.One final note -- I appreciate the single source protein, since I've been told to avoid soy (breast cancer survivor), so most protein bars are "out" for me.As other reviewers have said, I'd give this six stars if I could!

The BEST unflavored whey protein powder!!! Has a nice mild taste, mixes well, no stomach issues!! SUPER sad that Jarrow is discontinuing their whey protein line!! I hope they read the comments here and bring it back!!

First off, this is the first protein powder that I have tried and I am mostly happy with it. Before buying any protein powder research the different types of powders and different brands. This is especially useful if you have any food sensitivity or allergy. I also recommend researching brands especially considering some can contain heavy metals or other chemical irritants, intentional or not. Check for recalls. I found Jarrow Whey to be a good, pure, and clean milk protein.The most noted comments I saw were on taste and solubility. Many proteins that say unflavored mean no artificial flavors like chocolate or vanilla, not tasteless. Based on reviews I prepared myself for it to taste like **** because I wasn't accustomed to it, but to suck it up because I needed the protein. I was pleasantly surprised, it kind of tastes like a weird, mild cheese. While not extremely delicious (I definitely would not have this by itself or in just plain water), it is masked by strong flavors into a sort of milky tasting liquid. I frequently make an instant coffee protein shake and it kind of just tastes like milky coffee. Sometimes I add unsweetened cocoa. I will note that when I do the coffee mix, rather than a smoothie in the blender, the protein gets clumpy and foamy, while not impossible to mix it is frustrating when running late. However given enough time the clumps dissolve and the foam dissipates.Other tips to enjoy whey protein. "I put that **** on everything" quite literally. I try to integrate this protein into 2 or 3 meals a day. -Its great in soups or chili, I would recommend adding a little extra liquid because it acts like a thickener. Corn chowder? Yum!-Hate greek yogurt? Add some protein powder to regular or non fat yogurt and get a more powerful snack. I recommend flavored yogurt or adding fruit, otherwise it starts to taste a little cheesy.-This powder tastes cheesy. Why not add it to comfort food and make super mac'n'cheese or super garlic mashed potatoes. Garlic in the mashed potatoes because the whey is not real cheese and makes the potatoes taste...well...not good.-Add some to instant oatmeal or regular oatmeal.If I try something new that is particularly tasty I'll add it, but there are plenty of recipes online if you are really committed to adding protein where you can.Also any change in diet, especially a drastic one, can cause GI issues. If new to protein powder or have had a consistent lack of protein in your long term diet try to ease it into your new diet, maybe half a scoop instead of a full scoop. This should ease some GI issues associated with fluctuations in diet. It is recommended to ask your doctor before use, stop use if your GI symptoms are severe, and definitely stop use if you appear to have an allergic reaction.I only gave the product four stars because it is under review, most likely for the customers reporting packaging issues, and I have to reorder this in a round about way, which means I will be out well before the product arrives- Happy EatingThe No Longer Protein Deficient Biomedical Engineer
