Where should you start with protein in Singapore?

The best place to begin is to list your needs, like calorie goals, additives you want to avoid, and any lactose concerns. Then narrow down your options by reading ingredient lists, checking for credible sources, and comparing taste profiles. This makes it easier to find a great fit.

Protein shakes are in general more expensive than powders, but make up for it in convenience and taste. You can just grab and go, and usually pre-made drinks are nicer than powdered ones because the manufacturer can better control the quality and aroma of the final drink.

That’s the simple roadmap. Next, we’ll show you how different brands measure up according to various influencers and reviews.
