Mix Holland & Barrett grass-fed plain protein powder into water or milk, or blend it into a smoothie. Adding the liquid to a shaker first can help prevent lumps; you can also stir it into yogurt or porridge.
Grass-fed refers to the diet of the cows that provide the milk used for Holland & Barrett grass-fed plain protein powder. It does not, by itself, mean the powder has more protein or is definitively healthier than other whey powders.
Holland & Barrett grass-fed plain protein powder works with either milk or water. Milk makes a creamier, richer drink, while water keeps it lighter. Because the powder is plain, fruit or another ingredient can add flavor.
You can take Holland & Barrett grass-fed plain protein powder after exercise, but there is no requirement to use it at that time. It can also fit into another meal or snack when you want to add whey protein.
Yes, Holland & Barrett grass-fed plain protein powder can help you meet protein needs that support muscle growth. Building muscle also requires resistance training and adequate overall nutrition; taking the powder alone will not build muscle.
Holland & Barrett grass-fed plain protein powder is whey-based, so it may contain lactose; “grass-fed” and “plain” do not mean lactose-free. If you have lactose intolerance, do not assume this product is suitable without confirming its lactose content.
Yes, you can add Holland & Barrett grass-fed plain protein powder to pancake batter, baked goods, or porridge. It may change the texture, and stirring it directly into very hot liquid can cause lumps, so mix it with cool liquid first.
Add fruit, cocoa, cinnamon, or nut butter to Holland & Barrett grass-fed plain protein powder to give it more flavor. Since it is the plain version, it does not have a flavored-protein taste built in.
Holland & Barrett grass-fed plain protein powder is described as whey from grass-fed cows, while “regular whey” does not specify that feeding practice. Grass-fed sourcing alone does not establish a meaningful difference in protein content or how the powder works.
Keep Holland & Barrett grass-fed plain protein powder tightly closed in a cool, dry place. Avoid introducing moisture with a wet scoop, which can make the powder clump, and follow the storage directions on the package.

Holland & Barrett Grass-Fed Plain Protein Powder is an unflavoured whey protein powder made from milk sourced from grass-fed animals. Its neutral taste makes it easy to add to drinks and recipes without imposing a strong flavour, whether you want a quick shake or a boost to a meal.
Mix it with water or milk, or stir it into porridge, yoghurt or a smoothie; berries, banana or cocoa pair well with its mild taste. It is high in protein, with 75 g per 100 g, and has relatively little carbohydrate. Choose water for a lighter shake, or milk for a creamier one, and adjust the amount to suit how you plan to use it.
High
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Low
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
