Seeking Health Optimal Prenatal with Plant-Based Protein, Vanilla Flavor, Vegetarian Protein Powder with Prenatal Multivitamin for Women, Gentle Formula for Digestive Comfort, 15 Servings

I've used the chocolate powder for about 3 years now, but when it was out of stock, I chose to order the vanilla. I normally only use 1/2 a scoop and even then it's intensely sweet. I mix it with spinach and frozen fruit and it literally tastes like ice cream. That said, I personally don't want to wake up and eat/drink ice cream everyday, so it's a bit of a deterrent for me. Also, I can mix the chocolate version with water and drink it easy, but I can't do that with this one due to the flavor. On the flip side, my kids LOVE it and now that it's hot, I'll just start using it to make afternoon smoothies for us all.

I don’t love the flavor but it’s pretty easy to disguise in a smoothie.

WHY I CHOSE THIS PRODUCT: I have recurring miscarriages and was diagnosed with two blood clotting disorders, MTHFR (Heterozygous A1298C) and PAI1. After doing much research and with approval from my doctor, I have began taking this prenatal powder daily, L-methyl folate & B-12, probiotic, DHA, CoQ10 (Ubiquinol), and a baby aspirin. My diagnosis means supplementing with the highest quality of biologically available folate- this powder contains methylfolate as well as folinic acid. I truly believe this is the best brand. I urge you to research for yourself and look into Dr. Ben Lynch. He spent four years developing this blend. I choose the protein powder over the pills because I am very forgetful when it comes to taking 8 pills a day if they aren’t all in the morning! I also needed to consume more protein. I also very much enjoy smoothies/blended protein drinks. THE SMELL & TASTE The smell is bad. Okay. Don’t smell it! If you can just blend it and not smell it you will be fine. It does NOT taste like fish. It tastes like minerals with protein powder. Ask yourself, can you drink one 12oz chocolate or vanilla vitamin beverage a day for the sake of your health? For me, the answer was a no brainer. After having two back to back miscarriages- I will drink these for the rest of my days...pregnant or not...to make sure my body has the proper nutrition. I have also completely eliminated toxic man-made folic acid from my diet and have made a complete lifestyle change. { MTHFR means your body can’t process and break down folic acid (essential for conception and sustaining a pregnancy), detox, or process heavy metals... among other things. } HOW TO MAKE: I started by blending with unsweetened vanilla almond milk, oats, almond butter, vanilla, flaxseed, and some honey. Honestly, I didn’t need to mask the taste of the powder. If you do need to mask the taste, try the above and add a banana. Now I drink it blended with 12 oz of cold filtered water. I actually crave the taste of this drink constantly and look forward to drinking it while I get ready in the morning! WHAT I WOULD CHANGE: I wish it came in a bigger tub for the price. OVERALL: Amazing product. I will continue to purchase and recommend to everyone I know! I have tried both the vanilla and chocolate and they both are delicious. I prefer the chocolate and I think if you are hesitant about flavor I would choose chocolate.

Overall, this protein powder is acceptable; however, the taste leaves something to be desired.

This is the best prenatal ever. I’ve been taking it for several months, I am now pregnant and feeling great! My only wish is they had a version without sugar.

The value for money is not all bad, but I wish there were more servings given the ounces

I was hoping that the reviews about the product being too sweet were inaccurate. But it is too sweet! I will keep taking it because of all the beneficial vitamins.
