Best-in-class- How does Fast Protein taste?
Enjoying a protein powder doesn’t mean you have to deal with excess carbs and fat. For some companies, the taste of their protein is the only thing they have. They load up their protein formulas with cheap proteins that are easy to flavor and then chase that with a load of flavoring in the form of sugar, carbs, and hydrogenated fat. We believe that you shouldn’t have to sacrifice taste for results at Fast Protein. That’s why our research team works closely with some of the top protein-flavoring professionals in the world, and each flavor of Fast Protein is tested in internal taste tests. The result is a great-tasting formula that doesn’t pack the extra sugar and carbs you’ll see in other protein powders. This gives you more protein per scoop and a better overall macronutrient profile. We recommend taking protein powder with unsweetened almond milk for a more mouthful experience.
How much sugar should I eat each day?
According to the American Heart Association (AHA), the maximum amount of added sugars you should eat in a day are Men: is 150 calories per day (37.5 grams or nine teaspoons), and for Women: it is 100 calories per day (25 grams or six teaspoons). Fast Protein has only 2g of sugar (natural sugar with no added sugar). Our unflavored whey is sugar-free.
Can You Take Whey Protein on the Keto Diet?
The answer is absolutely yes. Let's first explore the critical aspects of the Keto diet. The ketogenic (keto) diet is a high fat, moderate protein, low carbohydrate. As you drastically reduce your carbohydrate intake and replace it with fat, the goal is to enter a state of ketosis. Whey Protein does not kick you out of the Ketosis diet.
