Summary

This plant-based protein powder contains a moderate level of processing with a few additives, including natural flavors and xanthan gum, which are common in flavored protein products. The use of stevia as a sweetener is a positive aspect, avoiding artificial sweeteners. However, the presence of natural flavors without transparency can be a concern for some consumers, and the overall formulation lacks the high-quality protein sources found in top-tier products.
