The ULTIMATE Vegan Protein Powder Review (Top 19 Tested!)

[@sadiedavenport]

Honestly though.... I think heavy metal testing is the most important thing. I'd rather have a protein powder that tastes completely gross but is safe than one that's delicious and contains lead.

[@TheVeganGym]

Yep!! Agree 100%!!

[@EviEhvee]

Which one do you think is the best? I can’t find good studies on which vegan protein has the least metals. Any suggestions?

[@sadiedavenport]

@@EviEhvee you know.... I haven't looked into it. I suppose I'd follow up with the brands that are willing to be transparent about their test results and see what they've found. I think protein powder can be really handy, but I myself have actually been adding beans to my smoothies. I know it sounds wacky, but I can't taste them. They just make smoothies thicker and they have the benefit of being a whole food, plus they're super economical! I cook a big batch in my instant pot and keep it in the fridge. A cup of beans (granted this is for a huge smoothie. You can also use silken tofu.) plus a serving of hemp seeds, and that's just about 25 grams of protein! It's not as simple or portable as protein powder, but it's way cheaper and I don't have to worry about heavy metals. Goodness, that was a long response. I hope that's helpful.

[@EviEhvee]

Johanna Bisceglia thanks for the tips! I’ll look into everything you mentioned haha

Thank you so much for this video. I'm 23 and on October 29th of this year (2019) I got diagnosed with stage 2A Hodgkins lymphoma. My first round of chemo was the day after Thanksgiving and my second round is tomorrow (once every two weeks for 5 months). I've been trying to change my diet. Slowly, but surely and vegan protein powders were on top of my list. So I appreciate the amount of effort you guys put into this for us. Thank you, thank you, thank you. 😊

[@TheVeganGym]

Wow, Alexia, thank you for sharing your journey toward veganism. I also went vegan after a cancer diagnosis at the age of 22 (in 2013). I know this might sound crazy, but I believe cancer is the best thing that ever happened to me. I'm now happier, healthier, more fit, and my life is filled with purpose. Stay strong. You'll get through this and you will learn a lot about life and yourself through this journey. Please DM us on Instagram or Facebook (or send me an email) with your address and I'll send you a copy of my book. And don't hesitate to reach out if you ever have any questions. Much love, Leif

[@theveganmusclemommy]

THANK YOU! Finally a Vegan KZbin(s) who are COMPLETELY honest about how VIVO Life tastes!😂

[@theveganmusclemommy]

Also what is your opinion about the heavy metals found in Vega's protein powders? Normally I would have thought that it was some kind of "anti-vegan" agenda, but Mic the Vegan made a video a while back saying that Vega really needed to clean up their protein.

[@TheVeganGym]

@@theveganmusclemommy Thanks so much!! We'll always tell it like it is :-) Vega was acquired by Danone S.A. (Dannon if you live in the US) a few years ago. Their quality has noticeably dropped since then. We reached out to Vega and they told us that the Clean Label Project testing was wrong and misleading, but they wouldn't share their third party heavy metals testing results. That's just absurd. We only use Vega if we're in a pinch and there are no other options (or if we're doing a protein review haha). Thanks for the support!!

[@FullyAdamatic]

@@TheVeganGym wow! I am glad I found this... I recently got suspicious after seeing Coffee Vega at Costco 🤔. I've been using it since the super gritty original.

[@JohnDoe-my8kj]

Vivo protein is more of an acquired taste, and due to the nature of their (natural) ingredients, each batch can taste slightly different from the previous one, just like raw fruits and vegetables. The strong taste can be attributed to the the turmeric, which is why you should mix more than 10 oz of water to dilute it properly. -I find that ~16 oz of water works best. When it comes down to it, there simply isn't any other vegan protein that comes close to Vivolife. Some might taste "better" because of the artificial flavors and sweeteners, but Vivo beats them in overall quality. It should also be noted that Amazon was selling some really old (foul) batches that were well past their "best buy" date for quite some time. Try to buy direct.

[@drewschiefelbein5471]

@AmpEdition well I'm kind of confused because Vivo has the heavy metal results on there website. I think these bros just forgot about Vivo in this test accidentally

This is SO great. Thanks for taking the time to go through all of this! I cannot tell you the amount of hours I’ve spent trying to investigate all the things most people know nothing (aka couldn’t care less) about. ***Question for ya though: I know you guys don’t consider Stevia as an artificial sweetener. However, as someone who definitely has a sensitivity to it, I was wondering if you guys found any of the protein powders tested that did NOT have stevia in their ingredients?

[@connorr605]

The Naked Nutrition pea protein powder does not have stevia. It uses organic coconut sugar. I haven't tried the vanilla yet, but I thought the chocolate one was decent when mixed with oat milk. At least it tastes better than hemp protein powders that I've tried in the past. I like how both the chocolate and vanilla flavors only have three total ingredients (pea protein, coconut sugar, and cacao or vanilla flavor). And the unflavored version is just one ingredient, pea protein.

[@Jonathan-ht5jl]

I have used true nutrition for years and they never fail. What I love about them for my vegan friends is that you can actually add essential amino acids into the mix along with a multivitamin into the protein powder along with many other customizations. Sure I admit its not the best tasting, but you know exactly what is in it and it is literally the cleanest protein.

[@LuceroDelgado-ip3oi]

But they didn’t disclose their heavy metal analysis or did they?

[@KILLAMENJARRAssWORLD]

I use the Naked Nutrition Pea Protein Powder with no flavor. I found that one to be the best because I can easily mask the chalking taste with the fruited and veggies I use in my smoothies. But I will definitely try the other vegan powders that scored the top 4 from your list.

Vega Sport (vanilla) is my holy grail 🙌🏼 I’m so hyped it made it in your guys’ top 5 😂 I also wanted to note that I am not vegan, but, I find plant-based protein powder to be much more pleasant as it makes my body feel great after a good workout, in comparison to the traditional Whey protein most of my gym buddies chug. Plant-based has made a huge difference in how my body feels and I’m hoping I can slowly transition to lessening meats and animal products I consume to really give my body the proper nutrients it needs in a much healthier way! Awesome video, guys! The taste-test reactions were hilarious to watch. 😂

You guys are so funny! I have had 9 of these and agree with your assessments on every one.. My wife disagreed with a few but taste can be personal.. She loved Vivo - it made me almost gag... We were using Vegan Smart for awhile as it tastes amazing. But I am super stoked right now on KOS Chocolate and Chocolate / Peanut butter... It is the first one that i have found tastes amazing using just water and not almond milk.. For whatever reason I found nut milks like almond left me bloated and gassy, so being able to drink one with just water as the liquid and have it taste amazing has been huge. Hope you guys get a chance to try it.

After reading and watching reviews, I decided to try Blessed. First of all, it''s pretty expensive and one scoop, compared to other powders, is huge. So, in comparison, ir is much more expensive per serving. It is very chalky and since I am sensitive to stevia, there is a pronounced after taste. I was also disappointed that the jars are only half filled. That is such a horrible waste. For a comoany who sells vegan products, I would expect you be to be more conscious of waste and packaging. I will use what I have ordered, but I highly doubt I will reorder.

Saw a comment regarding guar gum added in the Plant Fusion protein powder. Does anyone know whether guar gum is an ingredient we should avoid?

[@nahaagg4444]

It comes from a bean and it’s used to make things thicker I’m don’t know to much about it but I think it’s safe

Very thoughtful and informative video. I just have to put it out there that I really like the taste of Vivo Life protein powder and the Salted Maca Caramel is my favorite flavor. I was shocked by the taste tests here! I've been vegan for 7 years and have tasted so many vegan protein powders, including many included in this video and Vivo Life tasted better than them all in my opinion. Of course, everyone has different tastes, and some people won't like it, but I just wanted to add my opinion here since I'm seeing people comment that it's mainly famous youtubers/influencers who are hocking Vivo in order to make money. Their banana cinnamon flavor is also really tasty too😋

[@TheVeganGym]

Thank YOU for sharing your thoughts! As we've mentioned in other comments, we were ABSOLUTELY SHOCKED to discover our ratings for Vivo Life protein. Based on all the amazing reviews we've heard, we were very confused. But a few other commenters have noted that they felt the same way after trying it. I guess the only logical conclusion is that the taste is highly polarizing. Some people love it and some people hate it. That's pretty strange in my opinion, but I have no other conclusion. Despite our poor taste ratings, they still placed fairly well among the competition and we very much admire the mission and eco-friendliness of the Vivo Life company. Thank you for your comment! With gratitude, Leif

[@jamesjasonallen4168]

The Vegan Gym I could be wrong but how eco-friendly is Vivo’s protein really, considering they are sourcing ingredients from different parts of the world though? Taking the transportation of these ingredients into account

[@mona-checkoutmychannel7656]

I also like Vivo but I think they choose a weird flavor for this video lol I haven't tried the flavor they tested tho

[@hughjass6119]

Clean Machine is my absolute favorite. Not only does it taste amazing, but it is loaded with some of the highest nutritional value available. You guys should get in touch with Geoff Palmer at Clean Machine and do an interview/podcast - I’d love to hear what you all have to say conversationally. He’s a super nice guy and is doing what’s absolutely right for the vegan movement! Thanks for the videos and I love the podcast!

[@tanianjeri1210]

Nice video.😊kindly your views on scitec vegan protein?

[@Lin_Deng]

Vivo state on their website they’re tested for heavy metals... wonder why they won’t share their analysis then :/

[@wewiveslifechats5157]

Awesome video with great information and fun, thank you!

[@TheVeganGym]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@nataliearciniega2103]

I died laughing when Anders gagged! Taste is sooo important. Im surprised some of these didnt rank higher in taste...

[@TheVeganGym]

Hahaha some of them were REALLY GROSS!! And yeah, we were really surprised some of these didn't rank higher in taste too. Thanks for your comment and view Natalie! :-)

[@mimib5913]

As long as you can stand to drink it, taste is prolly the least important criteria. You can hide the taste.

[@nataliearciniega2103]

@@mimib5913 not for me, taste is really important... I already struggle as it is to get enough calories in, i need to enjoy it or i literally skip meals. Smoothies/shakes are my least favorite type of meal, ive had to make other protein snacks so i dont waste my money :/

[@miafacey1522]

Thank you so much for this! I am a new vegan and needed some help! Have you guys tested/tried the Ambrosia Planta? I've seen good things about it, although some flavors have sucralose and some do not. I was wondering how you would rank some of the flavors against these? Thanks!

[@TheVeganGym]

I'll check it out!

[@radikaul]

Thoughts on the heavy metals in Vega?

[@lovelylibra7349]

Exactly! Because out of the study done Vegas the one that’s one of the highest metals

[@AboodVlog]

I have ulcerative colitis.. What is the best protein powder vegan for me???

[@wingiethewise5058]

Why no KOS review? Tastes better than all of those.

[@TheVeganGym]

We've added it to our list for the next round! Thanks!

[@jmui852]

The Vegan Gym when will u guys do the next round? Will u compare them to the winners of this round? Thanks!

[@MrTmenzo]

@@TheVeganGym check out Dr forest raw organic protein too.

[@BlueSky-ps1ig]

You guys worked really hard on this. Thanks for all the info and effort!

[@TheWasup1994]

Great video guys, I appreciate all the work you did to put this together. I think at the end of the day, the taste is the most important. How many people are gonna stick to a vegan protein powder if it tastes like sand 😂

[@TheVeganGym]

Very true!! There's not much benefit to having a protein powder if it just sits in your pantry haha :-P

[@josephschreur1963]

which powder got the best overall scores? not including taste

[@starkiller6740]

So does plant fusion have metals or not

[@samiraarshat7891]

no 15:22

This was so helpful. You guys are awesome.

[@mj9483]

Great vid guys. Did make me laugh on the taste test of vivo life. Considering how heavily that one is pushed by all the top you tubers 😂

[@TheVeganGym]

Haha thanks man!! We appreciate the support! Yeah, we were REALLY surprised by Vivo Life. We were both expecting that to come out on top in the taste test with all the glowing reviews we've heard. We were SHOCKED when we looked at our ratings after the taste test.
