As strength training goes mainstream and interest in lean muscle for metabolic health and longevity continues to grow, protein’s current moment feels inevitable. Daily recommendations for the macronutrient are higher than they once were, and now everything from popcorn and breakfast pastries to lattes and wellness shots is getting the protein treatment. (Though it’s always best to source your protein from whole food sources rather than processed foods when possible.)
Of course, there are times when hitting our protein goals with whole foods alone just isn’t realistic, which is where powders, shakes, smoothies, and protein-infused snacks come into play. Unfortunately, many of the creamy whey-, pea-, and other protein-packed supplements on the market require a blender to avoid that dreaded chalky texture. Plus, they also tend to be more calorie-dense, which can be an obstacle if you’re in a calorie deficit.
