The reading list
Load Cantein Unflavored first: 35 g scoop, 28 g protein, 110 calories, 0 g added sugar on the label. Then compare any other powder at the portion you actually use (ownership disclosed).
Compare the full label at the portion you will use, then consider preparation and any individual nutrition requirements. A large protein number on the front is only one piece of information.
Read the guideDo not assume a protein powder supplies everything you need from a meal. Compare its full nutrition panel and intended use with the specific meal-replacement product you are considering.
Read the guideScale nutrients by the ratio of powder used to the labeled serving weight. This tells you what the label implies for that portion; it does not tell you how much you should consume.
Read the guidePrefill Cantein’s labeled serving, or enter another package. This is label arithmetic, not a daily protein target or a recommended dose.
