When to Choose Raw Grass Fed Whey Protein
Purity-focused buyers who want single-ingredient whey with published heavy metal COAs
Raw Organic Whey differentiates through published batch-level COAs that verify heavy metal and contaminant levels. The single-ingredient cold-processed formula is as clean as protein gets. No major certification but the transparent lab testing provides strong safety assurance.
Strengths
- Single-ingredient 100% grass-fed whey with published third-party COAs for heavy metals
- Cold-processed and undenatured to preserve natural protein structures
- Published batch-level certificates of analysis for heavy metals and contaminants
Limitations
- No NSF or Informed Sport certification — relies on published COAs instead
- Unflavored with a mild grass-fed dairy taste — not for flavor seekers
- Basic packaging and smaller brand with limited retail presence
When to Choose Vega Sport Premium Protein
Plant-based athletes who need NSF-certified vegan protein with recovery ingredients
Vega Sport is the premier NSF-certified plant-based protein for athletes. The multi-source blend provides a complete amino acid profile, and added recovery ingredients like tart cherry give it functional edge. Plant-based heavy metal concerns and premium pricing are the trade-offs.
Strengths
- NSF Certified for Sport with 30g plant-based protein per serving
- Multi-source plant blend (pea, pumpkin seed, sunflower, alfalfa) for complete amino profile
- Added tart cherry and turmeric for post-workout recovery support
Limitations
- Some Consumer Reports concern over heavy metals in plant-based proteins generally
- Strong stevia taste can be polarizing for some palates
- Premium price at $3.00/serving for 20 servings per container
