Antler Farms - 100% Grass Fed New Zealand Whey Protein Isolate, Vanilla Flavor, 2 lbs - Pure and Clean, 4 Ingredients, Delicious, Cold Processed

I have been using Jay Robb protein for a few years. After an article on heavy metals and contaminants in name brand proteins came out I did a little research into Jay Robb. Unfortunately they do not publish their heavy metal or contamination report anywhere. Antler Farms was listed as a very clean protein without contaminants (but expensive according to the article. It’s still less than Jay Robb though). So I thought I would give them a try. Jay Robb has also been in some kind of strange soul searching. He now wears a weird bandana on his product marketing. Does he want to be a biker, a guru, a rockstar? I’m not really interested in financing his mid life crisis especially if I’m unsure about what is in his protein. Speaking of what is in the protein, I will say that both are whey isolates with high protein value per scoop, low cholesterol, very easy on the stomach and sweetened with Stevia (both were vanilla flavored). Taste: I would give Jay Rob a 9.5. Antler farms an 8.5. Good but not quite as good as Jay Robb. Mixability: Jay Robb 10, Antler Farms 8. After my bike rides I would usually use my cycling water bottle, fill it up half way, drop in a scoop of Jay Robb and shake it maybe 15 -20 times and it is totally dissolved. The Antler Farms takes more work and I’ve gone to a shaker bottle with the little springy metal ball inside to help. With that it totally dissolves in about 15 - 20 shakes. Antler Farms is very very good and I think I will keep using it unless Jay Robb can convince me that they do testing for lead, cadmium, etc.

I have been trying so many of the protein powders since I started my weight loss journey. I was basically trying all of the top rated vanilla whey protein isolate powders by reading reviews and seeing what checked the box. It was beginning to get daunting as many of the brands do not offer small batches. I found a guy named James Kremmer “Protein Review Guy” recently after reading a review on Naked Whey. He has a background in sports nutrition and gives comprehensive review on powders. He listed Antler Farms as a top 3 in grass-fed protein that is actually from New Zealand. The taste is on point with this one and we can count on New Zealand having way more strict farming regulations than the US. It mixes really well. No Stevia aftertaste and is smooth. This is the second powder that I tried that I wish was a little creamier/thicker but it’s an isolate so it won’t be as rich as a concentrate and I am assuming it’s a sign that the company is using less thickening agents, as they can cause GI upset. Overall, I am very happy with this isolate despite the price point. I am consuming this everyday so I think you have to accept higher prices with protein to verify what you’re consuming is potent and free of anything harmful. I am going to try Earthfed Muscle after this and probably stop sampling unless something else comes out in Vanilla with a solid reputation. I hope this helps someone. I rely so heavily on reviews and try to give back when my 3 year old will allow!

I’ve tried a dozen brands, but this is hands down the cleanest. Knowing it’s 100% grass-fed from New Zealand makes a huge difference to me. Only 4 ingredients and no junk fillers—it’s exactly what I was looking for. Highly recommend for anyone who cares about what they put in their body!

Expensive? Yes, Worth it? Yes. I have tried dozens of whey protein powders over the years. All sweetened with stevia. This vanilla flavored whey by Antler Farms is hands down the best whey protein isolate I have ever tasted. It's not too sweet, no funny smell, mixed well with my ingredients and I had no stomach upset. My NEW go to protein powder. I highly recommend.

This is the best protein powder! It’s honestly the only one I have found that does not cause me hormonal acne. It doesn’t disrupt my hormones, probably because it’s clean! The flavor isn’t very strong, but it’s still not bad- the biggest win is that it doesn’t mess up my hormones. I’ve bought this several times now.

Hello, I just wanted to write a quick review out of pure appreciation for this protein powder, I'm not being paid at all to write this. Its rare I come across a protein powder that doesn't give me headaches or make me feel dizzy. This antler farms powder has been everything I've been looking for. It gives me a good pump, as in good blood flow to all of my muscles. I've noticed it helps speed up recovery time when working out a new muscle group (helps speed up the soreness period). And I have also of course noticed more gains. The taste is amazing, I would compare it to a vanilla milkshake from an ice cream shop like Cold Stone. I have perfected my protein shake recipe with this powder, and I will share it with you all: 3/4 Cup of old fashioned organic Oats. 1 Cup of organic whole milk. 1 Scoop of this Antler Farms new zealand vanilla whey isolate protein powder 1 Tablespoon of organic creamy salted peanut butter 1 organic dark chocolate peanut butter cup. 4 ice cubes. I hope someone tries this! Thanks for reading

At 70+ years old I know how important it is to consume enough protein to retain muscle mass. I have found the Antler Farms Whey Protein Isolate to be perfect for this purpose, especially for breakfast meals. I add a scoopful to my smoothies or iced coffee and it's delicious. However, I've learned that it doesn't blend well with liquid unless it's whisked in a small amount of liquid (or placed in blender) first. That said, those 26 grams of protein keep me full for hours without adding a lot of extra calories. It's a great product in my opinion and worth the higher cost for its high quality and excellent taste.

I LOVE this New Zealand whey protein isolate!! I have purchased Antler Farms® 100% Grass Fed New Zealand Whey Protein Isolate multiple times and this product has never let me down. It is by far the best tasting 100% grass fed New Zealand whey protein isolate on the market! And I’ve tried so many protein powders, there’s too many to count. Not only does it taste delicious, this product is also so PURE & CLEAN!! This whey protein isolate is made in New Zealand, from 100% grass fed cows, and with NO harmful hormones, antibiotics or chemicals. I absolutely love this product and it will stay on the top of my list!
