Sun Warrior Chocolate Protein, 2.2-Pound Bottle Review

First of all, Amazon has this priced $6 cheaper than the actual Sun Warrior website, which is fabulous.

I am a triathlete and have always struggled with protein powders and supplements because they were so full of sugars and artificial ingredients and so forth.

This raw rice protein supplement is awesome! My boyfriend is still stuck on his Syntha-6 powders from bodybuilding.com (which does not carry Sun Warrior, but should start!), but here is how Sun Warrior Chocolate compares to Syntha-6 Mochaccino:

Calories per serving (44g):Sun Warrior - 160, Syntha-6 - 200
Total fat: Sun Warrior - 2g, Syntha-6 - 6g
Saturated fat: Sun Warrior - 0g, Syntha-6 - 2g
Trans fat: Both brands have 0g
Cholesterol: Sun Warrior - 0mg, Syntha-6 - 55mg
Total carbs: Sun Warrior - 10g, Syntha-6 - 15g
Fiber: Sun Warrior - 4g, Syntha-6 - 5g
Sugars: both brands have 2g
Vitamin A/C: both brands have none
Calcium: Sun Warrior - 12% of DV, Syntha-6 - 10% of DV
Iron: Sunwarrior - 40% of DV, Syntha-6 - 1% of DV

Protein: Sun Warrior - 30g - Syntha-6 - 22g

I'm sorry, but no matter how you slice it Sun Warrior comes out on top in terms of pure nutritional value AND protein content per serving. Serious athletes should consider Sun Warrior a formidable brand in the market!

P.S. Sun Warrior does not taste as good just mixed with water, but I find that blending 2 scoops of the chocolate with water/soy milk + frozen banana + spinach + flax seed oil tastes like a healthy milk shake and the spinach is totally undetectable.

Sun Warrior Ultimate Raw Superfood Protein ~ Vanilla 2.2lbs Review

I really wanted to like this, because of the reviews, and because their website makes it sound like the best choice in rice proteins, but I just couldn't take that stevia taste.I normally have a hard time drinking anything with artificial sweetener, but I was hoping it wouldn't be so strong.Unfortunately it's hard to miss, and mixing it with anything that adds natural sugar only makes it worse, so the only way I could even chug it while holding my nose was with water.I guess if you're used to drinking diet sodas and such, it may not bother you so much.

Now, while the vanilla and chocolate both have stevia, the "natural" flavor does not.I would have liked to have tried it, but honestly I picked up some "Nutribiotic" brand vanilla rice protein for less than half the price that I think tastes pretty good, and has about the same amount of protein and amino acid profile, with less calories.The only factor that I would say the Sun Warrior brand beats Nutribiotic at is that it is less gritty/chalky, so it mixes better.So, if I was willing to spend the money again, I would feel confident that the natural flavor would be top notch.

I don't understand why companies use sweeteners like stevia.If I wanted to add a little sweetness to my smoothie, I could just add a little honey or agave nectar, or sugar.A half a teaspoon of sugar is only 7 calories, and sweetens plenty.
