Ascent Whey Protein

Good stuff

I use this at work when I need to skip a meal. I work in procedures at a hospital and find myself missing meals often. This has been a lifesaver. A scoop of this in a shaker… then just add water and I’m good for a few more hours!

Satisfying

I needed a break from my vanilla vegan protein powders because I felt tired of the taste. So I tried this whey protein in chocolate peanut butter form. I make mine with one cup of unsweetened almond milk and one sliced frozen banana (and one scoop of the powder). It fluffs up nicely in my Vitamix and makes a totally combined beverage with the consistency near to blended chocolate milk. This is my early evening treat (or meal substitute) after a day with regular eating and good exercise. It tastes good and makes me feel relaxed and calm (not hungry). This is helping me wind down the day without cravings for evening snacking. This change alone has helped me get my weight loss (about a pound a week) moving along more consistently than it was before I started drinking this. I like that it isn't overly sweet. I like that it makes a creamy drink without strange background flavor like some other protein powders I've tried. I will order this brand again for sure.

Favorite protein powder

I always love Ascent (chocolate is my go-to) for the flavor, smooth mixing, and solid ingredients list. Tried the new fruity cereal flavor, and it tastes exactly like Fruit Loops when mixed with milk. It's a little on the lemony side with just water. Nice change of pace if you prefer fruity flavors to chocolate.
