Chocolate Naked Shake

Updated to add that I recently bought the pumpkin spice and this flavor is by far my favorite!! Not overpowering and makes a phenomenal pumpkin smoothie and iced pumpkin coffee! I really like this protein powder. My primary concern is the clean ingredients and amino acid profile but honestly the taste isn’t bad. I’ve had the chocolate, which is my favorite, I use the vanilla for my overnight oats, and the unflavored for smoothies. It’s pea protein, so it can be a bit gritty so I find using a ninja blender and some ice and water the best way to go with this. Post workout, I use two scoops of chocolate, 1/2 frozen banana, 2 TBS of PB powder, 1 TBS chia seeds, ice and water and it’s really good! I do find the vanilla flavor a little overpowering in general, so if you’re going to have vanilla, expect to taste only that even when mixed with other things like yogurt or berries in smoothies. If you are transitioning off of pre made shakes like “Atkins” or whatever, give yourself some time to adjust. These will be watery compared to those because you don’t have all the artificial junk making it “creamy” and it may not be as smooth textured as you’re used to but eventually you won’t even notice anymore.

Absolutely love this shake! Fairly clean ingredients and tastes so good. Very filling! I just use water and its great.

Naked protein is amazing. I love the flavor. It mixes well. I have allergies to egg, dairy, soy and I have celiacs. This fits the bill and allows me to get some added protein in my diet. I would give the product 5 stars except I have purchased 3 tubs of chocolate peanut butter powder and all 3 I have had to use a power tool to cut open because the lids are unable to open. I’ve bought other flavors and this was not an issue. Very odd.

False advertising. I received the protein powder and when you look at the nutrition facts, it’s only 15 g of protein for 140 cal now vs. as advertisedin the picture online it says 20 g of protein per serving 140 cal. What happened to the extra 5 g of protein? In addition the protein powder chocolate flavor doesn’t have a strong chocolate taste pretty chalky. Honestly, for the price, the false advertisement, the taste not worth it. I would definitely get a refund if I could why is the company trying to get away with reducing the amount of protein and reducing the quality while still promoting the old product?

I really love how clean the Naked protein powder is and I like the Naked shake even more! If you want to drink this plain mixed with water/milk, get this one. It’s just the right amount of sweet and less chalky. Do not get the plain protein powder unless you want it to be chalkier and zero sweetness. All up to personal preference!

I have a young adult daughter with ARFID. She doesn’t typically have a problem with calorie intake but she does struggle with getting enough protein, so Naked Shake is great for that. The taste is chocolatey but not too sweet and not fake tasting. The powder blends very smooth, especially if she makes her shake in the blender. Naked Shake is soooo much healthier than purchasing pre-made nutritional shakes - most of them have harmful garbage ingredients. On the days where she isn’t eating much and needs a calorie bump, she just adds in a scoop of Naked Mass to her Naked Shake.

This is the absolute best protein powder I’ve ever had! I spent so long looking for a protein powder that was sweetened with real sugar or coconut sugar, and this checks every box for me! I will say, I’ve only tried the chocolate so far, but I’m taking the leap and getting the vanilla so I can use it in other things, such as pancakes or muffins. I’m so glad I found this and I make a smoothie every morning with it. It’s really helped me step up my protein game, as it’s difficult for me to get enough protein with breakfast because I’m egg intolerant. It upsets my stomach to have a heavy meal in the morning, and this doesn’t leave me feeling queasy. My base is the powder, 3T peanut butter, 8oz almond milk, and ice. I add either 1/2 a banana, frozen strawberries, or both. There have been a few times I haven’t had fruit so I just mix the base ingredients and one thing I will say is I’ve realized the grittiness is more noticeable when there’s no fruit in there. It doesn’t bother me at all, though. I’ve never tried one single protein powder that was not gritty, so I don’t understand the reviews slamming it for being gritty. It’s smoother than most other powders I’ve had.

I typically buy the Truvani protein powder in chocolate, but I ended up spending so much money on it every other week. Instead, I bought this in the chocolate flavor. It still has the chalky taste just like Truvani or any vegan protein powder I’ve tried without all the fruit and whatnot I add into it, however it’s still got clean ingredients in comparison to the Orgain or other brands out there. You get more for your money in comparison to Truvani which I also appreciate.

You might ask these questions; Am I gritty? Yes! If mixing with water shaking it for however long your arm can stand will be beneficial. I've found that all pea protein is gritty btw and there is no pea protein shake out there that is not gritty. If grittiness is a problem then mixing with other fruit/veggies ice cream whatever will take that away. Do I taste good? Yes it tastes pretty good. I like chocolate so chocolate shake tastes like a water downed chocolate milk. If you add it to milk/milk alternative I'm assuming it would taste like chocolate milk. Heavy metals? Here is the thing I question the most. A lot of vegan/pea protein shakes will have heavy metals because the protein like in pea picks up metals in the soil. I like that this company talks about heavy metals and they do independent testing on their products. Now I have not gone to a natural path, to have my blood tested but if I don't want to put whey in my body then some heavy metals I will consume I guess. I also want to mention I like the added mtc from coconut which is important to add to your diet especially if you are vegan/vegetarian. Also, low in sugar. I'm type 1 diabetic and this does not effect my blood sugar. I like to keep my sugar intake around 20gr to keep candida low as well. Canadian company with most ingredients from Canada. .

Excellent protein!! It even tastes great, imagine that!

I'm a big fan of Naked Rice and Naked Pea protein powders so I thought I'd give Naked Shake a try. Im not happy with it. It claims to have no artificial sweeteners, but it tastes like it does. If you take Naked Pea powder and add your own cocao and a bit of sugar it would taste nothing like this Naked Shake powder so something is going on. Stick with the other Naked single ingredient products and just mix them with your favorite drink. I think the "shake" line goes against the Naked brand messaging.

Good tasting. Blends well. I mix it with a banana and milk for a sweet taste when I need to reach my protein goal for the day.

doesn't mix well to create a shake. it's like drinking water/milk with chalk
