## Description

With BCAAs 25 G Protein NOW® Whey Protein Isolate is a high quality protein that is both bioavailable and easily digested. Whey protein has naturally occurring branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs). NOW® Whey Protein Isolate is ideal for active individuals. Whey protein is considered to have the highest biological value (BV) of any protein source - superior in essential amino acid content to beef, milk, casein or soy. Natural color variation may occur in this product. This product is sold by weight not volume.

Review: Easily the best protein powder on the market - Great formulation, reliability, and price. Per gram of protein this is a better deal than many higher quality whey protein concentrate powders. Mixes easily into liquid with a whisk. Easy to digest on an empty stomach. Taste is great, like vanilla cake. However, it is easily diluted. I recommend using only ~4 oz of water. The typical 8-12 will water it down so it tastes bad, completely different. I have to assume that's where other reviewers' complaints about flavor come from. It tastes great with the right amount of liquid.
Review: Now Foods and this protein are great! - I bought the 1 lb. size to try out the taste, etc of this protein. I'm no nutrician and am choosing not to offer a lot of information on the health benefits of this product. There are already other great reviews that I strongly agree with written by people that know much more than me. Now Foods appears to be, from everything I've been able to find/reseach on-line, a very good quality company that produces top notch, bio-active products that are worth spending a few extra dollars on over much of what the copetition has to offer. Whey Protein Isolate is the best, most pure quality of protein available. This particular protein appears to have been made in a way that preserves more of the bio-active nutrients (proteins and amino acids) than how some/many/most other manufacturers process their protein powders. This protein does not seem to have anything in it that is not natural. In other words, all the bad stuff, artificial flavorings, etc have been left out of this product. This protein does clump some. It does have some mild taste that is easily masked by my morning cereal or whatever you mix it with. The taste does not rival that of a chocolate shake, nor does it taste bad. It specifically does not in any way shape or form appear to be foul smelling or tasting to me. It is also hard for me to imagine how anyone could suggest this product would smell or taste foul. (I mention this only because another reviewer mentioned taste in their review.) Though to be fair, taste is a very subjective thing. For how well it dissolves... I put a scoop in my morning cereal. By the time I have made it half way through the bowl, the protein powder has completely disolved on its own. I have no negative comments to offer. I do plan to try Allmax IsoNatural Whey Protein Isolate. It is the only protein powder I've been able to find that could possibly be better than this one from Now Foods. The IsoNatural is more expensive. The two products are so close in terms of their perceived quality and nutritional content that I may opt for Now Foods in the end simply because it is cheaper. This is my two cents worth. I hope you find it helpful. Highly recommended!! ***UPDATE 3/29/11*** I tried the Allmax IsoNatural Whey Protein Isolate. Here's how they compared. I like the taste of the Now Foods whey a little better. Neither was offensive. While they were very similar, the Now Foods tasted slightly sweeter where the Isonatural (especially if you got a clump of it in your mouth) tasted a bit like (for lack of a better word) goo. The Iso natural had a slightly higher content of protein by 1 gram. (Note: Their labels use different serving sizes. So, you have to do some math to equal things out.) The Now Foods whey seemed to disolve a little easier. If you are buying small quatities (1 or 2 lbs), they are very similar in price. If you are buying 5 lb. containers, the Now Foods whey is much less expensive. I give the nod to Now Foods!!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the creation process? It says isolate, microfiltered, but which technique?**
A: 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.

**Q: Since most now sports products are low quality and made in china (creatine for example) - is this also made in china?**
A: I spoke to NOW customer service on 6/20/22.  The very kind rep informed me that all their whey protein is sourced from cows in Wisconsin and always has been.  The people on here saying their whey is from China are very incorrect.

**Q: It says microfiltered, but is the whey filtered under low temperature?**
A: 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.

**Q: the package looks like a large plastic bag? Are their 2  five pound containers inside the bag?**
A: The 10 pound package is just a large bag with the protein powder in the bag, no other containers.  I keep a smaller container from a previous purchase and refill it when I get the 10 pound bag.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent protein powder that eaily mixes and arrives on time!!
*by C***L on November 18, 2025*

My hubby started ordering this months ago after my last stomach surgery. I have MS and I have had dietary issues and swallowing issues. My hubby has been worried I haven't been getting enough protein, or eating heathy. So far this is the best protein powder that is flavorless and mixes well in smoothies! We add it to frozen fruit, yogurt, and orange juice and my pills that we grind because I have issues swallowing. Easy!! I feel great, makes feel energized and feel like I have eaten a good meal that lasts through out morning until later in the day. Not expensive, and comes right away. Big size and has more in container that most brands!!! Would definitely recommend this!!
