Garden of Life Goat Protein Powder - Goatein Pure Goat's Milk Protein Powder, 13g Complete Protein & 5g Carbs per Serving, Gluten Free, 22 Servings, 15.5 Ounce

I have moderate allergies and sometimes get stuffy sinuses. Besides making a smoothie with this stuff and a frozen banana in the morning, whenever I get stuffy I mix a batch of this stuff with some water or some almond milk or whatever and it blasts the stuffy nose better than decongestant drugs. Even if you avoid milk, read up on RAW milk (which is hard to buy because of regulations) - and then try some of this. Cold-processed and organic PLUS goat's milk has smaller molecules and doesn't trigger allergic reactions.Also managed to get my Crohn's under TOTAL management by using this stuff. I know people who've had their lives ruined by Crohn's. And the cure is worse than the disease especially with Crohn's. This stuff made mine go away. Simple as that. Now I can eat whatever the heck I want and it's like I never had the disease.

Ok, on the bottle it says not to use with children but I did it anyway. My 1 year old was still bottle feeding at the time and we were weaning him off of formula into cereal using bottles. So we were making cereal bottles (half cereal/half milk or water). He was having a lot of tummy issues with the regular milk even watering it down so I got this on a hunch and mixed this in with the water and the cereal and he never had an issue drinking it or digesting things after that...We also did not use a whole scoop...we used about half a scoop...The vanilla flavor in it also helped with the taste...

I like the taste and results.

I like goat cheese, so I was not put off by the smell. If you do not like goat products, this will be an acquired taste. I first tried to add it to some cottage cheese as I was at work and did not have many options to mix it with. It was not good, because it has vanilla and a mildly sweet flavor. I would rather it did no have this vanilla taste, as I could mix it with more savory options. I have not tried mixing it with water and do not have any interest to do that, as I do not like drinking milk or milk like drinks. I only have milk with cereal. However, I like eating it mixed with water and a spread similar to Nutella (a less sugary version with organic this and that), mixing it with this reminds me of a childhood cookie flavor. I spread this mix on rice cake or eat it by itself. I have noticed it helps me feel full throughout the day, I do it twice a day, not the full dose each time, just a teaspoon.

Goatein is a great way to go, if you are wary of dairy issues. You can also avoid those issues through high end wheys like a whey isolate, but this is another way as well. I have no problems with goat products versus other dairy products. The same goes for me with the higher end whey protein products that contain isolates, etc. Pretty good tasting as well.

I'm allergic to dairy so this is wonderful. Mixed with either water or soy / almond milk and frozen fruit it tastes good. I put my Vitamix on low and add the powder so it mixes well and isn't gritty.If I use water,I use warm water so it blends better then add the other ingredients. I add Fiberwise and ground flax meal as well. On its own it's ok tasting.

I made up a smoothie this morning with our new Goatein. I used Almond Milk, Goatein and some berries. The initial taste was fine, but then the goat taste settled in. Maybe it's just our lack of experience with goat products, but I'm telling you the taste was exactly like the smell of our goats and it's not a pleasant smell... Probably a great product if you can't handle any other milk products, but we'll pass on this! 4 people in our house tried it and couldn't stand it. I tried and tried to finish my shake hoping I would get used to it, but I had to give up.

This is the best protein powder I have ever used. I use this every day and this product does not bloat your belly like whey protein does to me. This is why I tried this product and just love it.
