What is the Difference Between Flavoured and
Unflavoured Protein Powder

• There are many flavours of protein powders in the
  market today. Selecting the right product for you
  depends on your choice. Some people like flavours
  and taste, while others look at the cleanliness
  of the product. It depends on the priority. Some
  things to keep in mind about flavoured products
  is that they contain more additives than the
  unflavoured ones. Some additives are artificial
  colours, artificial flavours, and artificial
  sweeteners (INS 950, INS 955, etc.) These
  additives are actually chemicals, and many of
  them are not good to consume daily and in the
  long run.

• In terms of effectiveness, both unflavoured and
  flavoured products are the same. You still need
  to check the ingredients. Some products contain
  more whey concentrate than isolate (less protein
  content, and more carbs). Check the product for
  the amount of protein per serving, the kind of
  protein, etc. For more information on protein

• If opting for unflavoured options, there are many
  ways you can have it shakes, smoothies, and
  other ways. You can find creative ways to make it
  tasty and also escape artificial sweeteners and
  other additives.
• Each persons protein requirement also differs
  based on their age, weight, activity, diet, etc.
  Instead of following something you read online,
  always check with your nutritionist about how
  much supplement to take daily (scoops, etc.) some
  people take protein supplements with water while
  others take with milk. Milk can make you put on
  weight and can be hard to digest since it already
  has a lot of fat and carbs.
