Protein powders are concentrated sources of protein that fall somewhere between food and supplement. They’re usually fortified with vitamins, minerals, and fiber, and are an alternative way to add protein to any diet. Protein powders are usually based on soy protein, whey protein, egg albumen, rice protein, or other sources.

Varieties

Protein powders are available in canisters in plain and flavored varieties—the plain varieties are bland and nearly tasteless, making them easy to incorporate into foods. Natural varieties with no artificial ingredients are also available.

Buying and storing tips

Look for protein powders in the supplement section of health food stores, or in the specialty foods section of some supermarkets. Store protein powders in a cool, dark location for 6 to 12 months.

Availability

Protein powder is available year-round.

Preparation, uses, and tips

Combine protein powder with yogurt, raspberries, and almonds in a blender and purée for a quick breakfast. Add unflavored protein powder to cooked oatmeal, cereal, breads, cookies, or other baked goods for added protein.
