anyway, im not necessarily a vegan, but tried both the plant based and dairy base orgain protein.. they are both good, except for me, the plant base is much harder on my digestion than the dairy.. by "harder" i mean it takes longer to digest so i stay full much longer. this is not necessarily a bad thing, but i need to eat small frequent meals, so it doesn't work too well for that purpose.
either way this is a great deal for a very good quality protein.. much better than 99% of those protein shakes out there.. i wish this was around 5+ years ago when i worked out regularly since it wws difficult to find protein powder without a ton of unnecessary ingredients.
Oh wait, glyphosate!
My valuable opinion would remain the same regardless.

Stevia Safety
The Acceptable Daily Intake (ADI) is the amount of a substance that people can consume in food or beverages on a daily basis during their whole life without any appreciable risk to health. Several regulatory authorities have rigorously evaluated more than 200 peer-reviewed studies on animals and humans examining the safety of high-purity steviol glycosides. Based on this evidence, JECFA has established an ADI that applies to adults and children. The ADI is expressed as steviol equivalents of 4 mg/kg of body weight per day.7 This equates to approximately 12 mg of high-purity stevia extracts/kg of body weight per day, using a conversion factor of 0.33. This ADI was established using a safety factor of 100, which includes a 10-times factor to account for potential differences between humans and animal species used in toxicological testing and a 10-times factor to account for potential differences within the human population, such as between children and adults. Thus, any potential increased susceptibility of children compared with adults to steviol glycosides has been addressed in the establishment of the ADI. For example, to put the ADI for high purity steviol glycosides into perspective, a 150-lb (70-kg) person would need to consume approximately 40 packets of a table top stevia sweetener that contain 21 mg steviol glycosides per packet daily for a lifetime to maximize the current ADI. Here is the calculation: A 70-kg person consuming the ADI (12 mg/kg per day) would consume 70 × 12 = 840 mg steviol glycosides per day. If a tabletop packet contained about 21 mg steviol glycosides, this person would need to consume 840 / 21 = 40 small tabletop packets per day to maximize the current ADI.
In the United States, high-purity stevia leaf extracts are considered GRAS (generally recognized as safe) by the US Food and Drug Administration. For more information about the Food and Drug Administration GRAS process, see http://www.ncbi.nlm.ni
Stevia has been shown to be safe in more than 200 studies, and JECFA has established an ADI of 4 mg/kg body weight per day, expressed as steviol equivalents, to guarantee this safety to consumers.

"And while they have conducted more than 40,000 clinical studies on stevia and concluded that it is safe for human use, there is a general lack of long-term studies on stevia's use and effects. All in all, stevia's sweet taste and all-natural origins make it a popular sugar substitute."
My opinions are 100% perfect for me, and it is better for anyone to be safe than sorry.
"When did doctors recommend smoking?
In the 1930s and 1940s, smoking became the norm for both men and women in the United States, and a majority of physicians smoked. At the same time, there was rising public anxiety about the health risks of cigarette smoking."
My prediction for 10-20 years in the future:
"In the 2020's, although it was obvious that artificial sweeteners, even those some falsely labeled as "natural" are not a good idea given the side effect and malaise experienced by many who took them, some still insisted they were healthy. At the same time, there was rising public anxiety about the health risks of stevia and other sweeteners."
Kidney damage.
Gastrointestinal symptoms.
Allergic reaction.
Hypoglycemia or low blood sugar.
Low blood pressure.
Endocrine disruption.
Does stevia cause health problems?
There's concern that stevia herb may harm your kidneys, reproductive system, and cardiovascular system. It may also drop blood pressure too low or interact with medications that lower blood sugar.

Also why do you keep mentioning glyphosate when we are talking about stevia? You do realize that steviol glycosides and glyphosate are two completely different things right?
That you choose not to use Orgain because there were higher levels of glyphosate at one time found in the product is fine. But I completely fail to understand why you keep mentioning glyphosate - an herbicide - when I'm talking about Stevia.

You don't need to understand anything, but you really should stop pumping stevia into your already lesser system.
