Analysis

The powder provides 20 g complete protein, enough to contribute meaningfully to daily intake. Its grass-fed positioning is stated, but the exact whey form and processing are not supplied.

Nine grams of carbohydrate is relatively high for the protein delivered, while potassium is low. Sodium is modest, but the formula offers little direct support for the specified heart-health goal.

Core nutrition facts are provided, yet inactive ingredients and whey type remain absent. Those gaps make it difficult to assess sweeteners, flavoring, lactose content, and overall formulation quality.

Who is it for
  • Adults seeking grass-fed whey
  • Users comfortable with moderate carbohydrate
  • People without milk allergy
Best for
  • General protein intake
  • Protein-enriched snacks
  • Routine post-workout shakes

Pros

  • Provides 20 g complete protein
  • Uses a grass-fed whey source
  • Keeps sodium modest
  • Includes some calcium

Cons

  • Carbohydrate is high for the protein amount
  • Whey form is not identified
  • Potassium is low
  • Inactive ingredients are missing

Warnings

  • Whey protein should be avoided by people with a milk allergy
  • Users sensitive to lactose cannot judge suitability without the whey form
  • The 60 mg cholesterol serving may matter to people tracking dietary cholesterol

Nutrient quality

77 High impact

A substantial complete-protein amount provides the main nutritional strength. Unspecified protein and mineral forms plus limited heart-specific design reduce confidence in quality and intended-use fit.

Ingredient transparency

66 High impact

Protein and basic nutrition totals are clear enough to judge the main serving. Missing source ingredients, mineral forms, full directions, and non-active ingredients prevent complete label assessment.

Customer satisfaction

68 High impact

The supplied average is strong and supported by moderate response volume. No comment-level evidence is available to assess repeated complaints or alignment with the intended use.

Value for money

62 Moderate impact

A substantial complete-protein serving provides practical nutritional value. Incomplete source disclosure and weak heart-specific utility limit the quality case at the stated category cost.

Report overview
Sodium · 100 mg OverallScore51
D Active Ingredient Quality & BioavailabilityC- Dose, Safety & Label TransparencyD+ Value

The sodium amount is too low for strenuous exercise, and both sodium and potassium forms are undisclosed. Potassium offers limited supporting coverage, with no magnesium or buffering compound identified. The relatively high serving cost and larger carbohydrate load make this protein powder weak value as an electrolyte source.

Potassium · 110 mg OverallScore34
F Active Ingredient Quality & BioavailabilityD+ Dose, Safety & Label TransparencyF Value

Food-derived potassium is present at a little above the standard low dose, but its chemical form is unknown. The stated amount likely reflects elemental potassium without identifying the source compound. A high serving cost offers poor potassium-specific value.
