When to Choose Legion Whey+ Grass-Fed Whey Protein Isolate
Health-conscious lifters who want grass-fed isolate with natural sweeteners and full transparency
Legion Whey+ combines grass-fed Irish whey isolate with a clean, naturally sweetened formula. Labdoor A+ rating and published lab results provide strong purity assurance even without NSF certification. The taste is consistently praised for a natural-sweetener protein.
Strengths
- Naturally sweetened with stevia and erythritol — no artificial sweeteners or dyes
- Grass-fed whey isolate from Irish dairy with full label transparency
- Labdoor A+ rated with published independent lab test results
Limitations
- Not NSF Certified for Sport — relies on Labdoor independent testing
- Stevia-erythritol blend sweetener may have a slight aftertaste for some
- Slightly more expensive than comparable isolates at $1.67/serving
When to Choose Ascent Native Fuel Whey Protein
Athletes who want Informed Sport-certified native whey with clean, natural ingredients
Ascent differentiates with its "native" whey process — extracting protein directly from fresh milk rather than cheese manufacturing. Informed Sport certified with zero artificial ingredients makes it a strong choice for clean-label athletes. The native whey distinction may not justify the premium over standard isolates.
Strengths
- Informed Sport certified and uses native whey isolate processed from fresh milk (not cheese byproduct)
- Zero artificial ingredients with only natural flavors and sweeteners
- 25g protein per serving with strong amino acid and BCAA profile
Limitations
- Native whey process marketing may overstate benefits vs standard isolate
- Limited flavor range compared to larger brands
- Pricing at $2.00/serving is mid-range but not budget-friendly
