Looking for the best vanilla protein powder?
Drink Wholesome makes the ONLY vanilla egg white protein powder with 100% real food ingredients. Other protein powders are NOT made with real foods; they are made with protein concentrates or isolates and food additives.
Other protein powders contain food additives. Although food additives are not necessarily bad for you in small quantities, they can add up quickly, especially if you drink a protein shake every day. At higher quantities, food additives can cause nasty side effects.
For instance, because highly processed food additives look nothing like real food, we have trouble digesting them. As a result, the trillions of bacteria in our guts have more time to eat and more time to release gas. This gas can cause bloating and stomach pain. Accumulating evidence suggests that food additives also disrupt regulatory pathways in the intestine and can result in the development of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and systemic inflammatory disorders.
As a rule of thumb, if you cannot pronounce it, it is a food additive. Not sure what to look for? Here are some of the most common additives in protein powder:
acacia gum, acesulfame potassium, artificial flavors, aspartame, carrageenan, cellulose gum, dextrin, dextrose, erythritol, gellan gum, guar gum, gum arabic, inulin, locust bean gum, “natural” flavors, maltodextrin, rice syrup solids, soy lecithin, silica, sucralose, sunflower lecithin, xanthan gum, xylitol
You may have noticed that this list includes several artificial sweeteners. Recent research suggests that artificial sweeteners are particularly bad for the stomach because they alter the composition of our gut microbiota.
Other protein powders also contain protein concentrates or isolates, foods chemically and/or mechanically stripped of everything but the protein. Unlike real foods, protein concentrates and isolates are missing the nutrients (healthy fats, complex carbohydrates, etc.) that make food taste good. If your protein shake has a chalky aftertaste, you know what I am talking about.
Protein isolates are listed on the ingredient list as “whey protein” and “soy protein” as opposed to “whey” and “soybeans.”
Sick of protein powders that upset your stomach? Sick of protein powders that taste like chalk? Switch to Drink Wholesome. Our vanilla egg protein powder is better for you and better tasting. Happy customers include athletes of all ages, pregnant and breastfeeding mothers, people with lactose intolerance, and people with sensitive stomachs.
Why egg whites? Egg whites have a lot going for them from a nutritional standpoint. First of all, egg whites are a complete source of essential branched-chain amino acids. This means that they contain all of the amino acids that the body needs, but cannot produce on its own. The bioavailability egg white protein is also as good as it gets. Bioavailability is a measurement the ability of the body to absorb and use a dietary protein. The higher the bioavailability, the more bang you get for your buck.

Finally, a protein shake that actually tastes good! It mixes well and all the ingredients are good for you. I’m using the vanilla and I often add other ingredients: banana, peanut butter, cocoa, fruit jam, etc. You guys are doing a great job – thank you!!!
Kimberly Valpey –

The best vanilla protein powder I have ever had. It tastes like a vanilla milkshake. I love it and the ingredients! I wish it came in a bigger bag!

It takes like smooth vanilla milk! No after taste; no chalkiness; just pure milk. It mixes easily without clumping. I use it in smoothies and, my new favorite snack: I put a serving of the powder into Greek yogurt, add a little milk or water, and mix it up for a flavorful and super high protein treat.

So far great! Personally I have always been ok with eggs and I am tolerating the product without issue. I have a really sensitive stomach and have been bouncing between mostly vegan varieties of post workout protein supplements. Please fix the sample, it’s confusing. It’s a partial serving meant for tasting, but that’s not clear.

I can’t have most protein powders and this is the cleanest out there. Tastes great too.

Thanks for including the scoop, it makes it much easier to measure a serving. I can’t wait to get my grandsons onto this. They may go for a different flavor but hey, all good. Thanks for being so accommodating to my needs. I love your service…and the product!
