Well, well.. to say it’s been a minute since my last blog post is a huge understatement! I definitely suggest subscribing to the Cat Lady Fitness (formerly the True Health Trifecta) YouTube channel for weekly videos – including occasional bonus videos during the week!
Don’t worry, because it’s not just cat stuff. I am beginning to share more home-based workouts, life/kitchen hacks, and recipes. Actually, the whole month of September I will be putting out a mid-week, real-time workout showing you different Tabata-style circuits you can do which require only a timer and NO gym equipment! Not to mention – the workouts will be super effective and only 4 minutes long.
All of September’s workouts are good for all exercise levels – so I do hope you decide to subscribe and join the Cat Lady Fitness family!
If you’re looking for more personalized coaching – whether it be online training or a one-time health & fitness consultation – you can learn more about working with me here!
Now as for protein powders – and, specifically, plant-based or vegan protein powders… A question I get very often is: which is the best out there?
For years now, my go-to protein powder has been S.A.N. RawFusion Plant-Based Protein. If you already own my best-selling book – The Best Plant-Based Protein Bar Recipe Book – then you already know that RawFusion is used as one of the exclusive ingredients in the recipes!
It’s no secret that the vegan and plant-based eating community is growing at a fast pace. Of course, this means that more and more vegan and plant-based foods have become available – including protein powders.
After I had three clients in one week ask if I still recommended RawFusion as the best option (in terms of price, nutritional profile, taste, texture/mixability, and aftertaste), I figured that now would be a good time to test out any other kind I could get my hands on to see if there was a new potential favorite plant-based protein powder in town!
After a couple of months of tasting and trying (you guys know how much I value accuracy and time in research!) I finally filmed a thorough review of the 10+ different vegan protein powders I tried :)
Check out my two-part video review here, starting with Part One:
And here is Part Two (which has the brunt of the reviews):
Here’s a list of the different protein powders I review in the videos above:
- VeganSmart All-In-One Nutritional Shake
- Whole Foods Plant-Based Nutritional Shake
- Trader Joe’s Organic Pea Protein Powder
- PlantFusion Complete Plant Protein
- OLLY Plant-Powdered Protein
- OWYN Ultimate Wellness & Energy Protein Powder
- My Fresh Blends Energy Protein Booster
- Amazing Grass Protein Superfood
- VEGA Organic Protein & Greens with Antioxidants
- VEGA Protein & Greens (original)
- VEGA ONE All-In-One Nutritional Shake
Since putting these videos up, I’ve gotten a handful of suggestions for other plant-based protein powders to try out – so I will definitely have another review video in the future.
Do you have a favorite plant-based protein powder that I didn’t include?
If you can suggest additional options for me to try, please leave it in the comment section of either video because I’d love to keep adding to the list for a future review. In the meantime, I do hope you are all enjoying the end of your summer and I look forward to continuing to bring you as many useful and interesting videos, healthy insights, and helpful resources as possible!
