Compare protein types

Five protein categories, side by side. Protein per serving comes from each product's stated scoop; cost per serving is that product's entry size divided by its servings. Where the flavors in a category differ, the column shows the full range rather than the flattering end of it.

TypeProtein / servingCost / servingLactoseVeganWhat it is
Whey Isolate25g–26g$1.47–$1.57at 2 lbTrace — filtration removes most of itNo — dairyWhey filtered past concentrate, so most of the lactose and fat is gone and what is left is a higher percentage protein by weight. One protein source per tub, with no concentrate blended in behind the flavor.
Whey Blend23g–24g$1.50at 2 lbYes — concentrate retains itNo — dairyWhey concentrate and whey isolate in the same scoop. Concentrate keeps more of the milk fat and lactose, which is where the thicker mouthfeel and the lower price per gram of protein come from.
Casein24g$1.69at 2 lbYes — milk-derivedNo — dairyThe slow-dissolving protein fraction of milk, separated with the casein micelle intact rather than processed into caseinate. It mixes thick — at half the usual water it is closer to a pudding than a shake.
Plant Protein24g$1.76at 2 lbNone — no dairy in the formulaYesA pea and brown rice base, ratioed so the two sources cover each other's limiting amino acids. Nothing in this category is dairy-derived.
Clear Protein20g$1.96at 1.3 lbNone — spec'd lactose freeNo — dairyHydrolysed whey isolate flavored to mix clear and thin, so it drinks like a juice rather than a shake. It is fat free, and it wants cold water only.

Cost per serving is calculated at each category's smallest size. Every product drops below the figure above at its larger tier — a bigger tub is never more per serving than a smaller one.
