Product: Rainbow Light Protein Energizer - Chocolate

I bought this protein powder because it had no added sugar and it was one of the few that also had high fiber, 7 g per serving. Unfortunately, the fiber comes with carbs, 8 g per serving in this case. And even though it has no added sugar, all of the other ingredients bring the sugar rating to 1.3 g per serving. But if you are aware of the carbs and sugar you may be able to fit it in within the allowed servings to add the necessary fiber to your diet. Complete nutrition info can be found by clicking on the title above. I made this as usual in my "bullet" blender with a little crushed ice and water to make 8 oz. I also added 2 tsp of Benefiber to add even more fiber so the final carb count for MY drink was 12 and the fiber count was 10. The texture was a bit of a pleasant surprise, it came out more like pudding so could be used as a sugar free mousse type dessert with a spoonful of whip cream on top.

Pros: high fiber, lots of  "green" food ingredients
Cons: carbs, sugar
Cost: $11.99 for a 1 lb pkg (about $.80 a serving)

Product: Spiru-tein Simply Natural Unsweetened Protein Powder

I tried two more flavors of this in the last couple of days, Peaches & Cream and Strawberry. Both had great flavor and texture. As with my other protein shakes, I mixed them in my imitation bullet blender with crushed ice and water to make 8 oz. Now, these are unsweetened so I add stevia to taste to the blender. Both of these have the same nutrition info. They are a little high in carbs at 5 g per serving so you will have to count it as a serving but if you want to get away from the usual vanilla and chocolate flavors, these both have pretty true fruit flavor.

Pros: flavor, unsweetened

Cons: counts as 1 carb serving

Cost: $1.19 for 1 serving envelope

Product: Solgar Whey To Go Protein Powder Natural Vanilla Bean Flavor

Click on title above for nutrition info. Mixed this in "bullet" blender with crushed ice and water to make 8 oz. Unfortunately, my imitation bullet blender malfunctioned. The rubber gasket sealing the lid on the jar broke and part of the contents leaked out. Still, I don't think that much leaked. Even though this is rated at 1 g sugar, it was not sweet at all. It was also a bit too watery and had weak vanilla flavor.

Pros: Price

Cons: little flavor, lacks richness

Cost: $.97 for single serving packet

Product: Spiru-tein Simply Natural Chocolate Unsweetened Protein Powder

For nutrition info, click on the title above. This product is from Nature's Plus, same as the Keto slim protein powder. I mixed this as I did with the Keto, crushed ice and water to make about 10 oz. in my "bullet" blender. It is unsweetened and after tasting I added about 1/4 tsp of Sweetleaf Stevia. It was still not as sweet as the Keto shake and, unlike the Keto vanilla shake, seemed a bit watered down. Package directions called for 8 oz of liquid, same as Keto, but Keto tasted great and had a rich texture, even with the extra water. Next time I will stick to the 8 oz and see if that makes a difference. If you like it sweet, you will want to add more than the 1/4 tsp stevia. This product also had 5 g of carb so is right on the border of being one of your carbs for the day. This was much lower in protein than the Keto (23 to 14).

Pros: cost, unsweetened so you can add your choice, 1 g fiber

Cons: not as rich and flavorful as Keto vanilla, lower protein, higher carb grams

Cost: $1.19 for single serving envelope

Product: KETOslim® Vanilla Shake with Critical Keto-Nutrients

I spent a couple hours over at my local health food store the other day reading labels on all of the (seemingly 1000's) of protein products. Many were anything but healthy sounding after reading the fine print. I came home with several single serving sizes, mostly in vanilla flavor. I will review each of them as I try them. I have one of the imitation bullet blenders and mixed the KETOslim with crushed ice and water to make 8 oz. It came out a bit too frozen to drink so I added another 3-4 oz. of water to liquify it a bit more. It still had plenty of flavor and seems to be chocked full of all kinds of good things, including probiotics. Be sure to check out the nutrition info at the link noted in the title above. I'd definitely drink this again and might even try adding cocoa powder to it.

Pros: good flavor, not gritty

Cons: contains FOS (please read comment)

Cost: $1.89 (single serving envelope)
