7 Best Clear Whey Protein Powders

Whey protein is one of the most popular sports nutrition supplements, but sometimes the thick, creamy texture of a traditional protein shake is hard to stomach.

Clear whey protein drinks still have whey protein as the main ingredient, but it’s been hydrolyzed so it’s finer and lighter. The result is a powder that creates a refreshing (usually fruity) drink that tastes more like juice.

While this is still an emerging category—and there aren’t as many options as regular protein powders—we tested some of the most popular brands available. Here’s what we found.

Strava Fitness App Review

Strava is one of the most popular fitness apps, as it can track over 30 workout types with an emphasis on endurance. It’s also earned a spot in many of our roundups, including the best health apps. However, while it may be popular and well-deserving of its place on our best-of lists, that doesn’t mean it’s the right app for everyone.

With so many fitness apps out there, it’s important to choose one that supports your goals. While Strava is a fantastic app for various purposes and training styles, it’s not the best fit for everyone. In this in-depth Strava Fitness App review, we will share our expert testing notes as new Strava users to help you decide if this is the right app to help you reach your fitness goals.
