Finally found a product fit for my fitness training and regime. For years I've been on and off with whey proteins but having found something without ruining the components of the ingredient is just amazing. I know people might not like the taste of the hemp but what I do is after workout, I make a shake using blueberries, banana, milled chia, flaxseed, spinach and a scoop of this with oat milk. It's yum! I'm not a vegan or changing my diet to vegan but I love incorporating supplements which are made with high quality engriedents, certified organic and raw. My digestion isn't usually good when I try out new whey protein products but since I've tried this (and also I have the Nuzest Protein which is another truly amazing!!) my tummy takes it really well. It would normally make me feel gassy (and sorry to have to write this but my fart smells funny with whey protein) but this just really refreshes my digestive system. I know it's a little pricey but better this than the other alternatives which doesnt provide healthy outcomes.Thank you very much for making this product Vivo Life! I just wish this never discontinues EVER!

I've used Whey for years and it's never sat well in my stomach. I'm in the 1st week of using Perform (Vanilla). I mix with various things (kale, spinach, raw cacao, banana, MCT oil) in my nutri-bullet so can't comment on the flavour/texture neat. However, whilst there is definitely a different flavour/texture coming through I've found it to be pleasant and the smell is great, no gut issues thus far and the knowledge I'm consuming good ingredients. It's expensive but for natural ingredients, no crappy sweeteners and no bloating it's worth paying the extra.. I'm not in it for muscle gain so again can't comment on its effectiveness. I'm an endurance runner so I use for recovery/repair - hopefully it'll do the job!

Tastes revolting.

5.0 out of 5 stars FINALLY! A vegan supplement that is totally raw plant based and isn't stingy on the protein.

FINALLY! A vegan supplement that is totally raw plant based and isn't stingy on the protein. For so many years I've dabbled with training and putting on a bit of muscle etc but have always found it a grueling balancing act with little results, lots of bloating and unpleasant side affects from supplements (and Ive tried a lot!) and crashing physically (as I need to have enough energy and strength to lead many classes a day as a Yoga teacher.)I am so pleased with this product. So easy to mix, not chunky bits, no bloating/ annoying side-affects, full of natural goodness to help recovery. Ive been using for a few weeks no since re-joining the gym and working with weights again and I recover soo much faster from sessions and also use the shakes as a little boost during busy days when I struggle to get in enough healthy food. Lets see how it goes in terms of muscle gains as continue on.Will definitely be getting a second lot soon!

4.0 out of 5 stars Not bad, but expensive, and I'm struggling to get used to the flavour

Nutritionally, this seems like a great option and I'm keen to support companies making good vegan protein supplements. The flavour and cost are issues for me though. This flavour *almost* tastes great. The vanilla part of the flavour is yummy, but I'm not at all fond of the hints of fennel and turmeric, even if these additives are supposedly doing good things for me. They lend a weird tang to the mix, which clashes with the fruits I usually use to make my smoothies. The flavour may be better if you just mix it with water or a non-dairy milk, and I'll admit I haven't tried that yet, but I like to use my smoothies as an opportunity to boost my fruit intake, as well as my protein. This brings me to another issue--the cost. I usually buy unflavoured vegan protein powders by Pulsin for half the price, and these blend much better with the fruits I use as my smoothie base. These Vivo Life PERFORM powders do contain more protein (in particular the BCAAs) per portion than the plain/unflavoured Pulsin powders I usually use, but the fact that the flavour is a bit too overpowering and they're twice the price does go against them. I might get used to the fennel/turmeric/peppermint tang but if not, I'm going back to the cheaper and simpler option!

5.0 out of 5 stars Vegan protein powder

Great product, tastes really good and keeps you full for ages compared to the whey protein I was using. I highly recommend if you are looking for a Vegan protein powder. It is a little expensive compared to the unflavered, low carb whey protein called total protein from myprotien that ibwas using before. This was also good, however i was hungry an hour later and had bad breath and fated loads which stank.This new protein is still low carb, and has no nasties compared to other protein powders I was looking at.I like to enjoy this product with half water and half unsweeted almond milk.I will definitely buy this product again.

This was always my favourite proten powder, high protein and no sugar .However when I reordered this time it tastes awful , smells bad and when I drank it I was sick .I noticed my last bad it started to smell badly quickly but thought it was stored wrongly .I’m really disappointed and trying to seek a replacement .The bags also do not seal any more ,.

3.0 out of 5 stars Great nutritional profile, awful taste

Perform has great macro's, probibaly the best of any vegan shake I have seen including vega, and also some great added ingredients you don't get in other shakes. I have only given it 3 stars as it is one of the worst taisting proteins I have ever tried! (Smells good though). If the other two taste any better then it could be my go to shake.
