Is this whey concentrate or isolate?

It is whey concentrate, the least processed form of whey. That keeps more of whey's native nutrients but also more lactose and fat than an isolate.

Does it contain added sugar?

No. It is sweetened naturally and lists no added sugars, soy, gluten or artificial ingredients.

How does it compare with a whey isolate?

Concentrate is less filtered, so it has more lactose and fat and usually less protein per scoop. Isolate suits lactose-sensitive or macro-strict users better.

What does it taste like?

A mild natural vanilla bean flavor. Most find it not overly sweet, though sweetness is a common point of disagreement.

Can I use it in baking and recipes?

Yes. The vanilla flavor works in oats, pancakes and smoothies, though heat can affect texture.

Is it suitable if I'm lactose intolerant?

Concentrate contains lactose. Lactose-sensitive drinkers often report discomfort, so an isolate or lactose-free whey may suit better.

Our take on the Levels Grass Fed Whey Protein Powder, Vanilla Bean

Levels Grass Fed Whey is a whey concentrate powder flavored with vanilla bean extract and sweetened naturally, with no added sugar, soy, gluten or artificial ingredients. Whey concentrate is the least processed form of whey, so it keeps a fuller nutrient profile than isolate-heavy rivals, though it typically carries more lactose and fat per scoop. It suits everyday lifters and smoothie drinkers who want a short ingredient list over a stripped, ultra-filtered isolate. Reviewers generally rate the taste and ingredient transparency highly, while some find it less mixable and lighter on protein per scoop than isolates.
