Truvani Organic Protein Powder Sample Reviews Summary

Flavor

Pros:

• "It tastes like chocolate, but not ‘protein powder chocolate,’ just chocolate."
• "I tried vanilla blended with unsweetened almond milk, tastes great."
• "Blended thoroughly with almond milk and frozen fruit—scrumptious."
• "It tastes exactly like a Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup! So yummy!"
• "This is the best tasting protein powder I’ve tried."
• "Tastes amazing, can really taste the difference between this brand and other brands full of gunk."
• "I love having this protein in a smoothie first thing in the morning! The flavor by itself is not my favorite, but I still rated it 5 stars because it tastes great blended with almond milk, bananas, and peanut butter and has clean ingredients!"

Cons:

• "The chocolate flavor is something that you do not want to experience with just cold water."
• "I got the vanilla flavor and it tastes faintly like vanilla? A very artificial flavoring taste."
• "It’s WAY too sweet with no other flavors. It’s so gross."
• "However, the taste of the banana cinnamon flavor sucks. It leaves a chalky aftertaste."
• "Wow, the vanilla chai is just sickly sweet to me."
• "It tastes like chalk."
• "The taste of this product, unfortunately, leans toward the chalky side and falls quite short of providing the satisfaction I had hoped for."

Texture

Pros:

• "If you let it sit for just a minute after blending then the chia starts to gel and you don't feel like you're drinking gritty powder."
• "The texture was really great, but the only thing I think it was lacking was flavor."
• "It's smooth; no lumps; no grainy texture; just smooth heaven."
• "It dissolves quickly and well and tastes nice."
• "Just blended up the banana cinnamon protein pack with a frozen banana, a few blueberries, and a lite pistachio milk. It's so yummy and easy to blend."
• "It tastes wonderful and we love the texture."
• "I don’t notice a gritty texture at all."

Cons:

• "It was SO GRAINY STILL."
• "Even after blending the peewiddly out of it into a smoothie using a Nutribullet, it's still quite sandy/gritty when drinking it."
• "The powder was also very gritty and chalky."
• "It has a super chalky after taste and it’s like drinking dirt or sand."
• "I’ve done everything to make it not so gritty tasting and nothing works."
• "It is so thick, gritty, and chalky it is impossible to mix into any liquid and drink it without it become a sludge at the bottom."
• "Very disappointed after mixing with water for a shake today.. The protein powder is super grainy."

Ingredients & Health

Pros:

• "I love the ingredients are limited compared to most on the market."
• "There is no stomachache involved and I feel full for many hours."
• "This product is great because, not only is it plant based, but it only has 5 INGREDIENTS."
• "I love that it has very few ingredients and that those ingredients are not only all recognizable food ingredients, but organic as well."
• "It's organic, it only has 6 ingredients, there's NO dairy, soy, gluten, stevia, flow agents, gums, emulsifiers, and it's NON-GMO."
• "I eat clean, so what’s not to like about this… organic ingredients, non gmo, no gluten, no soy, no dairy… and climate change friendly!"
• "I love protein powder’s with just a few ingredients. This brand delivers!"

Cons:

• "I’ve been using protein powders for years. I’ve tried them all and this is by far the worst!!"
• "I've never had stomach issues with vegan protein powder, but Truvani upsets my stomach."
• "This protein gave me horrible gas and I was bloated all day long after trying just half of a serving."
• "I have been having stomach issues and could not figure out why."
• "I was writhing in pain for 3 hours after taking one scoop."
• "Thinking I could trust a plant-based product but of course it says in the back packaged with dairy and a bunch of other things."
• "There is a warning label on this product that says…WARNING: Consuming this product can expose you to lead."

Price & Value

Pros:

• "The price is a bit high for the amount of servings you get. But I'd rather pay a bit more for a higher quality product."
• "Their products, in general, are truly superior, albeit pricier. But they are worth it."
• "It’s more costly, but well worth it to me."
• "Although this is pricey, I do believe it is worth it when it comes to your health."
• "I understand that quality costs more and fortunately I can afford it."
• "One great thing about Food Babe's products is that you can trust the quality - only the finest ingredients are used."
• "I understand the cost of such a product, but for someone who needs a lot of protein like I do - I have to drink three of these a day just to hit my minimum protein goals (200g a day)."

Cons:

• "I agree with some others that it is pricey."
• "I do love the taste but the price has gone up almost $10 in the last month so I will not be buying another bag."
• "Oh, and it is around $25 at our local food cooperative. So check to see if you can get it in a brick and mortar before paying $45 for it."
• "This is my preferred protein powder, but I always buy it begrudgingly as it is just so expensive."
• "I am spending around $100 per month on this product, which is very expensive, but I am unable to justify it with these lingering questions."
• "The only thing that really sucks is the servings compared to the cost."
• "I think this is priced slightly high and more people would be likely to buy it on their own if it was 10$ cheaper."

Customer Service

Pros:

• "Edited to add: Truvani customer service rocks. After being frustrated by my initial attempts to return or be refunded under the 30-day satisfaction guarantee, Truvani came through and did give me a refund through Amazon."
• "I tell all of my friends about this product! I have purchased many times the last year."
• "They are incredibly delicious for protein powder, and they blend far better than ones I've used off the shelf at stores."

Cons:

• "I emailed them thrice and still no response."
• "I’ve contacted customer support and no one has gotten back to me."
• "I tried contacting customer support several times via email and never got a response."
• "No response from my phone call to company. No refund no response."
• "I am getting pretty damn tired of getting sent the wrong product that I cannot return and don’t love."
• "They told me lead is naturally occurring in food etc., but they ghosted me when I asked them about the prolonged use of lead."
• "The only thing I can complain about is the ceiling mechanism did not work on my bag."
