User questions & answers

Question:	I ordered the 2 pound container. I opened it and don't see a scoop and the powder only goes to about halfway up the container. Is this normal
Answer:	After you open it and take out the scoop, close the container an shake it up and down for about 10 seconds, it will fluff back up to about 3/4 full.
Question:	Does this product work well for losing weight
Answer:	If you lift weights and are simultaneously cutting weight and trying not to lose too much muscle along with the fat, then absolutely yes. I'd even say substituting out other calories for a couple scoops of this a day is almost mandatory on a weight cut for lifters trying to maintain strength. You can use this to substantially raise the % of your calories you're getting from protein so that you eat enough protein while eating fewer total calories. One scoop of this stuff is 120 calories and 24 grams of protein. That's 96 calories from protein our of 120 total, a massive 80%.
Question:	If I were to make protein shakes with single serving size portions about 5 days/week, how long do you think a 2 lb container would last me? 5 lb? THX
Answer:	2lbs = 29 servings. Roughly, 5 days/week with a 4 week month is about 20 servings (excluding weekends). That leaves you with roughly 9 servings for the month left. I work out everyday but only take a shake after a workout. 2 lbs lasts me about a month. 5 lbs = 75 servings. For me, a 5 lb tub would easily be 2 months maybe 2.5. If you plan on staying with ON, it's more cost-effective to purchase the 5 lb tub depending on the vendor. Hope this helps.
Question:	Will consuming more whey (protein) help my rotator cuff tear heal
Answer:	I'm currently sitting here with a second surgery on my shoulder. First time was labrum tear and second was latarjet. I can say with 100% confidence drinking this will not help heal your rotator cuff. You posted this in 2013 and it is 3 years later, if you haven't seen a specialist and it hasn't given you problems that you are one lucky SOB. If it's still giving you problems, see a specialist or do PT. You probably need surgery depending on the tear. You don't want to live with that un-repaired the rest of your life haha.

User questions & answers

Question:	Did the worm/bug issue get resolved
Answer:	I haven't experience that with my product. I'll double check. First time I heard about this worm and bug issue. ðŸ`€
Question:	I'm amazed on how people focus on describing the taste. please, any commentary on real progress? muscle/strenght gain
Answer:	As long as you're getting enough protein from various sources, supplementing with any whey protein isolate will help with overall muscle gains as well as soreness. For example: my husband is drinking one shake a day made with this product and he is building lean muscle quickly (like hes nearly ripped after 7 weeks, ridiculously fast!). Though he is a beast and his body type has a lot to do with the way he builds muscle. I however, am drinking a different brand whey protein isolate (because I cant stand the sucrose taste of Dymatize). I am building lean muscle as well, but I am a woman. My body is more susceptible to storing fat. At the end of the day, there are a ton of really good protein options out there, people should enjoy their supplementation which is why taste is so important.
Question:	What is the best flavor? Looking for my husband
Answer:	I've only had the choc peanut butter but i love it! Best tasting protein shake I've had honestly. Looking to get more now, thinking of trying the cookies and cream. I mix the choc peanut butter with milk for reference.
Question:	What's the return policy? I opened mine to try it and not a fan of the bday cake. Can i still return it
Answer:	Why are people ganging up on the OP asking the question? There is a reason that most retail companies selling on Amazon and why Amazon themselves have return policies. It's called customer satisfaction. If you aren't satisfied with a product, for whatever reason, and the return policy guarantees your satisfaction, then you have the right to return it. How many people order food in a restaurant, and it isn't to their liking, it was cooked wrong (like asking for a medium rare burger and getting well done), or just didn't enjoy it? They tell the server, and just about 100% of the time, they are offered another dish or a refund. Yet protein powders shouldn't come with the...um guarantee that the main page of this product promises? Plus, this is Amazon. They have about the most liberal return policy imaginable. Look, me personally? I am with Serge Stiles in that if a protein powder, meal replacement, or other edible supplement tastes really bad, I suck it up and eat/drink it anyway. So long as it's healthy. Ha! Anyone who thinks these newfangled supplements taste bad, I would love to put you in a time machine and have you drink some of the most vile and disgusting tasting protein powders you can imagine! They smelled bad, they tasted worse, oftentimes it was like drinking liquid chalk. And the protein bars back then?!! Yuck!!! YUCK!!! But I ate 'em anyway. Stuff by EAS, MetRex, GNC powders (possibly the worst!) were terrible. But I wanted the amino acids, good calories, macronutrient profiles, proteins, and other built-in supps. Hahaha you people today don't realize how amazingly good even the WORST TASTING protein powders are today, compared to the sewage-tasting crap I used to run to the stores and buy over and over again, because they were effective! :)

Question:	I see few people have asked the same question: Does this have lactose? I'd like to add that on the back it says product contains milk, so

User questions & answers

Question:	Why does the scoop only give you around 22g and not 31g as the label states
Answer:	In the 'Directions' section of the label, one serving is described as a rounded scoop. That's the same as a heaping scoop. Flattening out the powder on the scoop provides less.
Question:	What is the difference between vainilla and naturally flavored vainilla? im looking for a mild flavor so i can add a fruit or a orange seltzer
Answer:	Although I don't know what's the exact ingredient difference, I can definitely say the following: vanilla tastes good, but the naturally flavored vanilla tasted horrible to me (especially a weird after taste). I purchased the naturally flavored vanilla, but had to return it because of this.
Question:	There are so many different flavors. What are your favorites and why
Answer:	Vanilla ice cream is disgusting - too sweet! Double rich chocolate is my absolute favorite. Not too sweet and goes well with everything.
Question:	Is there a reason why the 5 lb is so much thicker than the 2 lb? i tried the 2 lb, liked it, and order 5...outside of jug seems the same
Answer:	Get something like an "AMIR 500g/0.01g Digital Kitchen Scale". They're twelve bucks & quite accurate. I suspect the powder is compressed, making the scoops a bit heavy. Measuring by weight instead of volume should provide more consistent results.

Product description

Certified Grass Fed Whey is designed to refuel and repair muscles. Intensive training and exercise breaks down muscle tissue and then the body repairs and rebuilds to make them stronger. Our premium quality, clean Certified Grass Fed Whey is not only free of hormones and antibiotics, but we are also very proud to have the ONLY Non- GMO Project Verified Whey. Due to these third-party certifications, Certified Grass Fed Whey is also NSF Certified for Sport and Informed-Choice for Sport Certified. You can rest assured there are no athletic banned substances in this clean whey protein.For Garden of Life to launch an animal protein, the entire system had to be different from other “so-called grass fed” protein. We needed a holistic approach to our protein that started at the farm and traced every metric straight through to the tub. Although many whey protein products may call themselves “grass fed,” our research showed this wasn’t truly the case. Almost all dairy farms still used animal feed full of soy, corn and GMOs. Why? Typically, there are too many cows to feed year-round on grass. Our search ultimately ended in Ireland with a coop of 4,800 generational family farmers whose herds feed only in green pastures.

• CLEAN WHEY PROTEIN: Truly Grass Fed Certified, Non-GMO Project Verified, Gluten free, Soy free, NSF Certified for Sport and Informed-Choice for Sport Certified, with No added hormones, No antibiotics, No added sugars

User questions & answers

Question:	What could I mix with this in a blender to make it a good meal replacement shake? Looking to replace b.fast and lunch with shakes
Answer:	I put one scoop of protein in about 1 and 1/2 cups of milk(I drink Lactaid) then I put one or 2 Tbsp of a cocoa mix like Ghiradelli- mix on high in my Vitamix blender and it makes a wonderful protein shake. Good amount of protein and tastes good!! I forgot to say I also add a frozen banana as well and you can buy powdered peanut butter and add that too!
Question:	Since most now sports products are low quality and made in china (creatine for example) - is this also made in china
Answer:	This comes directly from NOW foods website: https://www.nowfoods.com/now/nowledge/sourcing-high-quality-ingredients-around-world Read for yourself...you can bet your bottom that if the cheapest source of a particular ingredient comes from China, that's where they're getting it! "Manufactured in the USA" usually just means mixed or packaged here, and it's legal to label as such.
Question:	It says microfiltered, but is the whey filtered under low temperature
Answer:	Yes. Now is a very reputable maker of many products. I have bought from them for about.....15 years or so. This particular protein has no flavor, but that doesn't mean it tastes bad. It just tastes, well, bland. I just put two scoops with cold filtered water, shake it in my bottle and down it. If u want flavor, I just add some of my kids strawberry Quick. I like no carb protein and this is it. Very high quality and not all the fancy price and advertising.
Question:	What is the creation process? It says isolate, microfiltered, but which technique
Answer:	Hi Ron! We contacted the Product Info Dept. at NOW, and this is the answer they provided: Whey protein isolate is manufactured from sweet dairy whey using cold micro-filtration and ultra-filtration membrane technology. The product is then gently spray dried and "lecithinated" into a free-flowing powder that can be easily dispersed in water. This results in an non-denatured whey protein that is highly soluble over a wide pH range and has a very clean, bland flavor.

User questions & answers

Question:	What is the difference between whey and whey isolate
Answer:	Whey Protein powders come in 3 forms - Concentrate, Isolate, and Hydrolyzed. Whey Concentrate is the least filtered, and contains lactose, which can cause gas, bloating, and diarrhea for some individuals. The percentage of protein is generally lower than the other two types, and can be as low as 25% to 80% or so. Whey Protein Isolate undergoes additional filtration and has virtually all of the lactose removed, so it presents no digestion problems for otherwise healthy individuals. It also has a higher concentration of protein, usually 90% or higher. Hydrolyzed Whey Protein is filtered to an even finer particle size, which not only removes all lactose, and brings the concentration of protein to 90% or higher, but also increases its assimilation in the body just a tad more. Obviously, the real measure of any protein powder is how much of it is actually absorbed and utilized by the body. This measure is referred to as its "Biological Value" or BV. Egg Protein is considered to have an amino acid profile which is closest to and nearly identical to human muscle. It has a BV of 100. To provide you with a better idea of the difference in effectiveness between the three Whey Protein types, Whey Protein Concentrate has a BV of 104; Whey Protein Isolate has a BV of 154; and Hydrolyzed Whey Protein (aka Whey Protein Hydrolysate) has a BV of 164, which while great for marketing purposes, is fairly inconsequential, with no difference actually being noticed in real world results compared to isolate.So, with Whey Protein Isolate, you get your greatest bang for your buck, being one of the most effective and efficient forms of protein supplementation, while eliminating any possible digestive issues. Whey protein is a highly assimilated form of protein which is absorbed rather quickly in the body, being assimilated within about 90 minutes or so. This makes it ideal for supplementation immediately prior to and after ones workout. If you're looking for a form of protein to provide up to 8 hours worth of delivery to your muscles, such as during sleep in order to remain in a catabolic (muscle growing) state, then you would be better off with a protein blend containing Whey, Casein, and Egg protein. Many bodybuilders use both an individual Whey Protein supplement and an additional Protein Blend supplement for these separate and distinct purposes.
Question:	Is it still from Germany
Answer:	Yes
Question:	Does the added Amino Acids come from synthesized human hair, duck feathers, cow horns or pig bristles
Answer:	There are not any added amino acids in this product. The amino acid panel you see are the amino acids that are bound within the protein itself.
Question:	Any Amino spiking
Answer:	No, we do not add any amino acids to this product. The amino acid profile and protein content come directly from the grass fed hormone free whey isolate. We have also had this product independently tested by labdoor to verify there is not any amino spiking. If you go to their website, you will see this is the highest quality grass fed, hormone free isolate they have ever tested.

Product description

Pure Unflavored Grass Fed Whey Protein Isolate!

Our natural grassfed whey is guaranteed to be the highest quality and purity of any whey protein powder anywhere. Why? We start with the best raw milk from grass-fed, hormone-free Wisconsin cows. We utilize cold processing and pasteurize the milk only once at the end of the process at 163° F for 15 seconds. Our major selling point is the nutritional value still in our whey that only comes from doing things the best way in every step of the process.

How Is Your Whey Made?

Conventional whey comes from corn/grain fed, caged, unhappy cows. This process results in a lower quality whey protein with less health promoting omega-3's, more inflammation promoting omega-6's, and tiny levels of beneficial CLA's. Conventional whey usually undergoes multiple pasteurizations, heatings, and acid treatments that damage the amino acids and nutrients in the final product. By the time it's ready to go in your body, conventional whey is nothing more than a damaged, diminished fraction of its former self. Because of this process, conventional whey pales in comparison to undenatured whey protein made directly from raw milk.

Don't settle for low quality damaged whey protein! We are so proud of our grass fed whey protein powder we tell you how it's made on the bag. Best of all...

100% Money Back Guarantee - Add it to your cart now and feel the difference!

• PREMIUM PROTEIN POWDER - Our grass fed whey protein is unflavored and we truly mean it. We don’t add any sugar, sweeteners, preservatives, colors, or flavorings. The lack of a distinct taste makes it ideal for people who don't like flavored protein powders.

Low-temperature drying techniques give it a better taste and texture compared to ordinary whey protein.

User questions & answers

Question:	Will you be coming out with a Vanilla version I would definitely buy it
Answer:	We don't have plans for a vanilla version but I'll start looking into this now. Thanks for the comment.Greg
Question:	Difference between isolate and concentrate whey
Answer:	Our whey concentrate is cold processed from raw milk. The whey isolate is made by putting the concentrate through membrane filtration of finer pore sizes (from larger to smaller) to isolate the protein to 90% or more by dry weight. This is a cool process and does not involve heating the product. The isolate is then spray dried with sunflower oil derived lecithin to instantize the powder (allowing it to mix easily.) Our whey protein isolate powder yields more protein per 30 gram serving (27g vs 24g.) The isolate is also lower in lactose making it easier to digest for some people.
Question:	You say your whey is made using a gentle processing method. How exactly does it become an isolate? How is that process different than whole whey
Answer:	Our whey isolate is cold processed from raw milk. It only gets pasteurized (at 163° F for 15 seconds) once at the end of the production process. This gives it a far superior amino-acid profile compared to most whey proteins, which are pasteurized twice. The whey is then separated by going through membrane filtration of finer pore sizes (from larger to smaller) to isolate the protein to 90% or more by dry weight. This is a cool process and does not involve heating the product. It is then spray dried with sunflower oil derived lecithin to instantize the powder (allowing it to mix easily). Our whey protein isolate powder is undenatured and very high in whey protein fractions, including immunoglobulin, lactoferrin and glycomacropeptides.
Question:	does it come in a larger size? I love it
Answer:	It comes in 1 pound and 2.5 pound sizes. We also offer 10% off for buying 3+ items. The discount is automatically applied at checkout.

User questions & answers

Question:	What is the difference between isolate and concentrate
Answer:	Simple answer would be isolate has less lactose easier to digest, little more pure than concentrate less carb and fat naturally but of course they add a little to make it taste good
Question:	Is this cross-flow microfilteres whey isolate
Answer:	I believe that is the process for creating the whey isolate.
Question:	Where do the 3g of sugar come from? "0 carb, 0 added sugar
Answer:	The isolate form of whey further reduces the carbs over regular whey (), but some carbs/sugar naturally occurring in milk are still present. Milk naturally contains some sugar -- lactose -- which accounts for its faint sweetness.
Question:	Does this product contain sucralose or any other artificial sweeteners
Answer:	The Unflavored only has pure (grass-fed) whey protein isolate. The flavored versions do not contain sucralose. The Nutritional facts image (in the image section) shows all ingredients.
