Kaizen Naturals Product Review
Kaizen Vegan Vanilla Protein
I am just obsessed with this vegan protein. I seriously feel it is the best tasting LEAST chalky vegan protein I have tasted yet! The ingredient list is super simple & the nutritional breakdown is pretty perfect! 140 cals 3F|7C|25P (all from plant sources & NO SOY).
Taste
This vanilla protein actually tastes like vanilla and not like dirt or plants. It isn't overly sweet either which is nice & it doesn't leave that overly sweet - hurt your teeth - fake aftertaste which is AWESOME!
Smell
The smell is a bit earthy but still sweet! It doesn't smell bad when opening which is also a huge plus!
Texture
AMAZINGGGG texture. If you add it to a shake it doesn't clump at all & the mix-ability is so amazing you can literally put it in a bowl, add some water, stir and it whips up into a pudding texture in seconds! I have used it for chia pudding, proats and in smoothies so far and it all tastes great & mixes perfectly!!! When mixed up with a small amount of water it literally tastes and feels like you're eating pudding! 10/10 on texture FOR SURE.
Kaizen Unflavoured BCAA
Taste
I tried the unflavoured BCAA's and they taste like nothing & blend in easily with smoothies. However when drinking alone with water they do taste a bit...salty maybe?
Smell
I almost died when I opened up the packaging. I was expecting it to smell fruity and sweet(like most BCAA's) because I didn't realize they were unflavoured. To be quite honest it was a pretty horrible smell, but Daniel went and tasted them and said they tasted nothing like how they smelt & once mixed with water you couldn't smell it anyways! So then I tried it and the flavour wasn't bad either! But I definitely think I will stick with flavoured BCAA's from now on!
Texture
Mixed very easy like most BCAA's do!
