MyProtein Protein Pudding


 Protein Pudding

Overview
Here’s what MyProtein have to say:

Protein Puddings are delicious, high protein desserts perfect for a sweet tasting snack to increase your daily protein intake throughout the day. Easy to put in your bag or lunch box, these great tasting puddings are a fantastic addition to anyone’s diet.

Protein Puddings are vanilla flavoured offering a smooth and velvety dessert. To add to the great taste they also boast an incredibly thick and creamy texture, making them perfect for a high protein indulgent snack at whatever time of the day.

These Protein Puddings provide 15g of protein per serving, sourced from milk protein which will contribute to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass.

These Protein Puddings are particularly ideal for anyone looking for a high protein snack that is also low in fat and sugar. They are perfect for an evening protein snack or throughout the day to increase daily protein intake and are best served cold, straight from the fridge.

For what is supposed to be a treat this is a pretty amazing breakdown. The fats and carb content is low enough to be fit in most cutting diets. 15g of protein is fairly low but this is more of an addition to your diet rather than something you’d plan into it.

Taste
It only comes in Vanilla but that’s fine because it’s delicious – it’s surprisingly good a bit like angle delight in its consistency and taste. It’s not very big pudding but just enough o satisfy a craving.

Side Effects
None

Price
£8.99 for 8 pudding pots.

Results
I say it quite a lot but I love supplements that help you keep on a diet. These pudding pots taste great and have a much better nutritional profile than the taste would have you believe. They are pretty cheap, convenient to keep in the fridge for when a craving strikes and have I mentioned that they taste great? A few more flavour choices would be nice but the Vanilla tastes good enough to forgive that. I expected the carbs/sugars to be triple what they are which was a very pleasant surprise – it means that I could have these even on a low carb day which saved my diet more than a few times.

Treats like this fall under the non-essentials bracket, yes they are great but if you on a budget you’ll want to focus on the more important supplements. They do serve a purpose though they allow you to break the diet without doing any real damage to it. If you suffer from constant cravings for a dessert or struggle to keep to a diet then why not give these a shot, they just save you from yourself. 9/10
