What Protein Powder Do Nutritionists Recommend?

Since I’m certified by the ISSN, NSCA, and Precision Nutrition, what protein powder do nutritionists recommend? This is a common question people in the health, fitness, and strength and conditioning fields always ask.

The issue is that those recommendations only come from personal experience (or affiliate marketing). So here’s my full disclosure…

Every product I review is tested personally. I don’t just rely on online research; I use these products daily. This hands-on experience ensures that my reviews are based on actual, practical usage, not just specifications and claims.

The products I choose to review are selected based on reader requests, market relevance, and personal interest. I’m not sponsored by any brands featured, which allows me to provide impartial evaluations without any external influence.

I believe in transparency. It’s important to note that my posts may contain affiliate links. Rest assured that these links won’t cost you any extra, but we may receive a commission if you purchase them. I am also not affiliated with any protein company.

What Should I Look for When Buying Protein Powder?

“What should I look for when buying protein powder?”

That’s a common question I routinely receive when I train clients in person. Let’s be honest: There is much information to research before selecting a protein powder.

• Health and fitness goals
• Dietary restrictions
• Allergies and intollerances
• Budget constraints

I started this passion project during lockdown. I wasn’t expecting to do monthly protein reviews. In the beginning, I had my original protein powder criteria grading scale.

My review criteria evolved to stay current with industry changes and product updates, ensuring the most accurate recommendations.

How to Choose a Good Protein Powder?

Choosing a good protein powder has now become difficult. There are too many options, too much research, and not enough time in your day to select a “good protein.”

This is the reason why I do this.

To help people out.

I hope this helps current and future readers select a protein powder to reach their strength and weight loss goals. At the same time, selecting a quality protein powder can save you money.

Reviews are updated monthly to reflect the latest market offerings and research.

• The month and year the protein powdered was reviewed
• Hyperlink to the protein review
• Final review score of protein powder
• The most recent reviews will be at the top
