So. I've been considering switching to a new brand of protein powder since I usually use Optimum Nutrition and that shit gets real expensive. Somebody recomended this site to me, [url=http://truenutrition.com/p-1126-custom-mix.aspx ]True Nutrition[/url]. They let you make your own protein blend, and apparently the cinnabun flavor is amazing. Gave me some code for 10% off or something. KYR104, for anyone that is interested.
Well, I was scrolling through their list of protein options and other than whey concetrate (Milk), their Soy Free Non-GMO Pea Protein is the cheapest.
A few reviews I read online say it is healthier and more effective than whey concetrate, while a couple others argued it is slightly less effective as while it has a comparable amino acid profile to whey, it lacks a couple that whey has.
Anyone have any experience with Pea Protein powders? Does it mix well? What brand do you use?

I've taken a stint of protein. It didn't do anything for me. I weight train every other day while doing running in between lifting days. I do full body, collegiate level workouts and have been for 2 years now. And my gains have been impressive for not taking any supplements. My diet does it all for me.
