At a glance
Summary
This soy protein powder contains soy protein isolate, which is a highly processed form of soy with a less favorable amino acid profile compared to animal-based proteins. The use of natural flavoring and xanthan gum introduces some processing concerns, though these are relatively minor. The inclusion of natural sweeteners like stevia and thaumatin is a positive aspect, as they avoid artificial sweeteners. Overall, the product is moderately processed but lacks major harmful additives, making it a reasonable choice within its category.
