Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I screwed up. I dumped one packet (like the one above) into 16 ounces of water, and realized after, that the suggestion was to use 8 ounces of water.
Instead of re-doing it, I just added another packet. The calories in this About Time protein are so low, that it's only 200ish calories for two servings, and 50!! grams of protein.
What I have now, in front of me, is a Strawberry + Birthday Cake Protein Shake (two separate flavors) made with 16 ounces of water and nothing else. I typically go with just. water. when I am trying to review a protein powder, because I like to doctor my shakes up after I get the gist of what they are Meant To Be on their own.
The smell of each flavor, before adding to water was merely sweet, no real pungent protein smell at all. Dumped into my cup, it's a very fine powder with no clumps. Mixed with too much water, it was very thin, and not at all sweet. Mixed CORRECTLY, it's slightly creamy, but not at all thick. There was no foaming even when I shook the crap out of the cup.
Mixed, it's a slightly thinner than a typical artificially sweetened protein powder, but still thick enough that it's not like a clear protein powder base. Since I mixed two flavors, I can't really tell you if the Strawberry is great by itself, however, I CAN taste the vanilla from the "Birthday Cake" flavor, so the two mixed is YUMMY. My only complaint is a slight dry lip feel afterwards, like most other whey proteins, but it's not really feeling that way IN my mouth.
One serving would have given me 102 calories, ZERO CARBS and 25 grams of protein. Since I'm having two because of my mistake, I'm have 204 calories, ZERO CARBS and 50! grams of protein. That, my friends, kicks protein ass.
This product is sweetened with Stevia, a natural plant based sweetener, and I can't tell. Had you said it was sweetened with anything else, I wouldn't know.
If you're looking for super low carbohydrate protein product that is naturally sweetened, "About Time" Protein is one to try. After weight loss surgery, it's pretty imperative that we keep the carb level low and the protein level high, and two servings of this product would hit close to the minimum protein requirement for most early post ops. I find that it's easy to sip, and not leaving any aftertaste, so as a new post-op, this would have gone down smoothly I bet.
