In todays review I am going to be sharing my thoughts about Ripple Protein Powder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have been on a mission of trying lots of different plant-based protein powder to see what ones are the best out there. I’m here to give my completely honest opinion and have personally tried all the powders I have been talking about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It has been quite an experience and I’m becoming a bit of a protein powder expert!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So I’ve prepared a little checklist on what makes a good plant based protein powder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s have a look at that checklist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is it made from natural ingredients, such as real fruits, vegetables, grains, and superfoods etc<\/strong>? Or is made from synthetic non organic chemicals?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

You want a protein powder that is made with organic fruits and vegetables to ensure you are putting the very best ingredients into your body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can you pronounce all the ingredients on the label? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Simple, readable and preferably pronounceable ingredients is what I look out for. You don’t want 100’s of ingredients and no clue what any of it actually is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What kind of tests were run on the product to prove label accuracy<\/strong>
and ingredient purity?<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

 For example, heavy metals, gluten etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What kind of independent quality certifications does the product<\/strong>
have?<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is it USDA Organic, non-GMO, Vegan etc?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How does it taste?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is without a doubt the most important part surely?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You want to actually be able to enjoy it. A lot of powders can be a bit pricey so there’s nothing worse than spending money on something and wasting it cause it tastes disgusting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      The Ripple Protein Powder Taste Test <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      I was excited to try this powder as you can’t get it in the UK, so I had to have it shipped over from the USA. When it arrived I finally opened it up and did that all-important smell test.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      To be honest, it didn’t particularly smell of anything really, a lot of powders smell the same…..maybe a bit musty. But what did I expect from a vanilla powder?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      I like to taste test the powders in a shake, mixed with some unsweetened almond milk so that’s exactly what I did. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      On tasting, I wasn’t immediately in love and ‘wowed’ by the taste but then again it was my first sip! After I drank some more the taste did grow on me. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      After my taste test I thought the overall taste was mild and not overpowering. It did have a smooth creamy texture which is good with a powder as sometimes they can be bitty or chalky. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Also something I noticed was that there was no weird after tastes either! Some brands do because of the different types of sweeteners the protein companies use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      As someone who prefers a bit more flavor, this one isn’t my favorite. However, if you’re looking for a powder that more on the mild side and you just wanted to mix in with something (i.e porridge) without it taking over the taste then this would be a good choice. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Overall it’s still enjoyable, just not my favorite. Flavor is subjective so you shouldn’t base this whole review on what I think of the flavor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
