100% Whey Protein Powder

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 5 ingredients to avoid

Premier Protein 100% Whey Protein Powder scores 5/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. Per serving it carries 1g fiber, 30g protein and 1g sugar. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Premier Protein 100% Whey Protein Powder lists 11 ingredients, starting with Whey Protein Isolate, Whey Protein Concentrate, Cocoa Powder, Processed With Alkali and Sunflower Lecithin. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

150 kcal per serving, or 366 kcal per 100g. Calories are only part of the picture — Tallow scores Premier Protein 100% Whey Protein Powder on what the ingredients are, not how many calories they carry.

At 5/100 Premier Protein 100% Whey Protein Powder scores worse than most protein powders we have scored. A higher-scoring option in protein powders is VEGA Pea Protein Powder Chocolate at 100/100.
