Our take

CleanPlate review

Whey blend sweetened with stevia and monkfruit

Tata 1mg Whey Protein (Vanilla Bean) is a whey concentrate and isolate powder with natural vanilla powder, a digestive enzyme, probiotics and stevia and monkfruit sweeteners. The pack is 1 kg in 28 sachets of 36 g.

CleanPlate scores it CC2. The C for nutrition is middling: 66.7 g protein per 100 g. The C for ingredients reflects mostly refined or industrial ingredients (led by whey protein concentrate, whey protein isolate and natural vanilla powder), with additives that cost points: steviol glycosides. The 2 for risk is low: sodium, free sugar and saturated fat are all modest (free sugar 0 g and saturated fat 1.9 g per 100 g; sodium is not printed).

Claims vs reality

What the pack says, checked against the ingredient list and nutrition panel.

  • On the pack

    “No thickener, anti-caking agents, added preservatives, amino spiking or other pesky chemicals”

    Holds

    None of these appear in the list; stevia and monkfruit are sweeteners, which the claim does not mention.

  • On the pack

    “Made With Natural Flavour”

    Holds

    Natural vanilla powder is the only flavour listed.

  • On the pack

    “Digestive Enzymes & Probiotics”

    Holds

    DigeZyme and a probiotics blend are listed, and the panel gives 30 billion CFU per sachet.

Common misconceptions

Myth: "Probiotics make whey a gut remedy"

The pack gives a CFU count only, and its label says it is not a substitute for a varied diet.

Myth: "Natural flavour means no sweetener"

Stevia and monkfruit sweeten it, which is why added sugar is 0 g.

How often, and how

  • Healthy adultsA scoop a day at most, if food protein falls short
  • ChildrenNot needed
  • Diabetes or prediabetesFine in moderation

Smarter ways to eat it

Stick to one sachet

A sachet is 36 g with about 24 g of protein; the label allows up to 2 a day.

Stir it into curd or a smoothie

Fruit and curd add the fibre the powder lacks.
