Protein Shakes w/Out Artificial Sweetener

Can anyone recommend a protein powder, or nutritional shake that doesn't have artificial sweetener?'

A few people have told me about adding these type of shakes to their diets and how great they feel/look but everytime I ask for the name of the product and look it up, there is artificial sweetener in there Chat Icon and I can't have that.


Any suggestions? Vanilla or Chocolate flavored?

TIA

Here is a list of protein powders from the Food Babe. Haven't tried any of them.


My husband likes this protein spirulina powder.

Trader Joe's also carries protein powder.

I just make them myself-- I mix berries, coconut/almond milk, banana, greens and either peanut butter, almond butter or greek yogurt depending on my mood (and sometimes, cocoa, coffee, vanilla, etc.). The protein content is not as high, but I figure it is getting some extra fruits and veggies in along with enough protein to keep me full. Also, I can't stand protein powder. Chat Icon

Sun warrior and garden of life protein powders. Orgain has protein shakes but I buy only vanilla as the chocolates ones have carrageenan in it.

ETA: Ughh..don't buy sun warrior or garden of life. Just found out garden of life protien powder has been contaminated with heavy metals. When I was doing research on healthy protein powders, this came highly recommended. I made my DH drink this for months before switching to orgain shakes. I am sick of spending money on expensive things only to find out they are not so healthy after all.

Garden of life and Orgain.



Unfortunately, it was recently discovered that Garden of life products have heavy metals in them. I bought these for my DH last year..he was drinking these everyday for months. We switched to orgain about two months ago. Orgain has brown rice protein which is known to have heavy metals. I am hoping an independent lab will test Orgain too.
