When to Choose Naked Whey 100% Grass-Fed Whey Protein
Minimalists who want single-ingredient grass-fed whey with zero additives
Naked Whey is the ultimate minimalist protein powder — one ingredient: grass-fed whey concentrate. Cold-processed and additive-free, it scores highest on ingredient purity. The lack of major third-party certification is the main drawback, though they do publish some lab testing.
Strengths
- True single-ingredient protein — literally just grass-fed whey concentrate
- Cold-processed to preserve natural whey proteins and bioactive compounds
- Excellent value at $1.25/serving with 76 servings in the 5lb bag
Limitations
- No major third-party certification (no NSF, Informed Sport, or Labdoor)
- Flavored versions add organic coconut sugar, increasing carbs slightly per serving
- Uses concentrate rather than isolate — slightly higher fat/carbs per serving
When to Choose Gainful Everyday Whey Protein Powder
Consumers who want Informed Sport-certified whey with customizable flavor options
Gainful offers a unique approach with its customizable flavor system atop a clean, Informed Sport-certified whey base. The ingredient quality is high and the certification credible, but the premium pricing and smaller portions make it one of the more expensive options per serving.
Strengths
- Informed Sport certified with batch-level testing for banned substances
- Clean ingredient list with no artificial sweeteners, colors, or fillers
- Customizable flavor system with separate stick packs for flavor variety
Limitations
- Higher cost per serving at $2.79 due to smaller container sizes
- Unflavored base requires purchasing separate flavor sticks
- Less widely available than established brands — primarily direct-to-consumer
