Whey Factors by Natural Factors, Grass Fed Whey Protein Concentrate, Aids Muscle Development and Immune Health, Unflavored, 2 lb

My Favorite Protein Powder!

I have been buying this protein powder for years, and I love it! It quickly and easily dissolves in liquids. The flavor is extremely neutral, making it very versatile in its use. Since it is truly unflavored, it can be added to a variety of foods or drinks to add additional protein without changing the flavor. I have been fairly disappointed when I have tried other protein powders over the years. Many are gritty, taste gross, or have ingredients I don't want to consume. Yes, there are some higher quality protein powders out there, but I don't think most of them justify the higher price tag. There are also cheaper protein powders out there, but then you begin to have some flavor and quality issues that I don't like. For me, this protein powder is a great balance of quality and a fairly reasonable price. **If you found this review helpful, please mark it as helpful by clicking "Yes" below.*

perfect chocolate

I have tried different protein powders over the years and Whey Factors' products are some of the best, if not the best I've ever tasted. My favorite is the chocolate, and I especially like Whey Factors' low sugar content. In the winter I use warm milk to make hot chocolate. In the warmer months, I blend in a frozen Sambazon Acai smoothie pack with the double chocolate protein powder for a cool treat that is absolutely out of this world

The Best Protein Powder There Is

This is it, the ultimate protein powder! After scouring around for proteins on two separate occasions, I came back to this brand. I bought it a while ago after doing some extensive research and had no problems, but maybe I didn't feel like I was gaining as much mass as I should have. Now I seriously doubt that any of my concerns about mass are from this powder, and I have gained a considerable amount of muscle anyway. On account of my misled belief, I looked around for proteins again. There are cheaper proteins on a $/gram basis, but good luck finding one of these proteins with the customer ratings of this protein or the consistent positive ratings on taste. On top of that, this protein is about as natural as it gets. It has none of the bad artificial sweeteners that some say will interfere with the protein. And as far as taste this stuff is delicious. With water it's fine, and with any type of milk it's like creamy flavored milk...any of their flavors are good. The best tasting protein powder I've ever had...maybe one of the best flavored milk mixes I've ever had! It's a nice light flavor, but you get the vanilla or chocolate flavor and no processed taste. So maybe you have to cough up a few extra bucks and it would be nice if there were a 5 lb. bucket...but you can rest assured that this is the best quality out there

Value delivered

I researched the market for whey supplements and selected Natural Factors. The cost advantage goes to the 32 oz. offering over the 12 oz. The product is rich in flavor. If I had one improvement it would be the availability of strawberry flavor in the 32 oz size. I have been using Natural Factors since July of 2010 and am quite satisfied with the supplement's composition and flavor. Natural Factors Whey Factors, Vanilla, 2-Poun

My Number One Choice for a healthy lunch!

It's astonishing how many "100% whey protein" products are NOT 100% why protein but contain soy as a major ingredient. I'm only one of millions of people who cannot have soy in my diet, so it was fantastic to find a product that lived up to it's advertising. Please don't change your formula, as some other formerly 100% whey protein powders have done. Please keep it the same for those of us who depend on it

The real deal in a confusing world of protein powders.

I once spent a lot of time comparing protein powders, not to mention a decade of tasting at least 25 different kinds. I'm palate-sensitive to proteins, and dislike all protein powders for taste, so what I was looking for was quality -- the most of best ingredients, the least of bad ingredients, the decency of fast blend, the highest protein amount for what you have to use of it. In the end, this brand won the quality comparisons hands-down. I've tried vanilla and unflavored. I might add that after all that, a chocolate 'syntha-6' brand was the best taste -- all these powders are vile to me, but it was by far the best I'd ever had -- but it has some crappy ingredients. This Whey Factors brand is the best 'quality' on the market period. Sadly it's pricey and I wish they had a 5# option for some $ discount, but it is what it is

The Best Yet!

I have used many different protein powders in my 80 years, but most have left me unfulfilled. It wouldn't take long until I'd feel hungry, defeating my purpose for using it as a meal replacement. Natural Factors whey protein leaves me completely satisfied. I bought the small container, because I didn't know if I'd like it. I LOVE it! Mixed with banana the chocolate is delicious and filling, I don't feel hungry for hours. As much as I like the chocolate, my next purchase will likely be vanilla, as it is more versatile. I read some say the flavors used synthetic sweetener, but not according to their web site. The chocolate uses Stevia. I would not have purchased it otherwise. I'm 100% sold on this company and their whey protein products. So happy to have found them. My granddaughter, who is an RN, said at my age I need a good protein. I concur

Expensive

Just to be clear this review is for the company and not the product. I buy this product on a regular basis. I made a mistake and selected this size, thinking it was the 2 pound container. I think because this company charges 30.00 for this 12 oz container which is a COMPLETE RIP OFF and I thought this was the larger 2 lb container. . I can get 2 of these 12 oz containers at Vitamin Shop for this price. Also look around on Amazon, you can get the 2lb container for the same price as this 12 oz. Again, my fault for not paying more attention but just a word of caution

This brand of whey protein is great for people with MTHFR gene mutation

This brand of whey protein is great for people with MTHFR gene mutation. It is undenatured, so it helps your body create glutithione that filters toxins in your body. Another plus is that is has no folic acid, so for those of us that need l-methlyfolate this is great. GMO free, hormone free, and no artificial sweetners I love this product. I drink the double chocolate with milk. Tastes great

Whey Factor

This is my first REAL use of any protein supplement product. I have used friend's supplements before (Muscle Milk) and that was fine, but I didn't like how much additional stuff was in it. I didn't want to be drinking a 400 calorie shake; that just doesn't make sense to me! When I found this product I was really excited because it is exactly what I need - pure protein, very low on sugar, and low on calories. I got it and it looks exactly like the picture. I got the Vanilla flavor, it tastes great! I use it every morning in my oatmeal and it is heavenly! The flavor is really rich without being overwhelming. And can I just state again, I LOVE that it is low in sugar! All in all, I think it is a good product. I don't really see why I would try anything else after this
