The best protein I have tried, in terms of taste and solubility. I have been taking it for years. Unfortunately, the last container I got is probably a problematic batch, it has very poor solubility resulting in a shake full of clumps. Unheard of for this protein, I hope it is the exception.
Very good product, I just finished the first box. With workouts 4 times a week and one scoop before each workout, I have already noticed a difference in my muscles. Just don't get the cookie flavor
Well, it is the best protein out there because I have tried many, this is the most effective. BUT UNFORTUNATELY the cookies and cream flavor is very strange with water, you can barely drink it, but with milk it is quite nice. I will definitely buy it again, but honestly the flavor loses a star because it shouldn't be called cookies and cream since it has nothing to do with it; it's more like frappuccino
I hadn't taken it for a while and it seemed to me that it doesn't have the same solubility as before and also the double choco flavor is less intense than before.
Very satisfied, without flavor it's a bit... but I prefer without additives. With almond milk it's filling. For results, it will show, but it obviously depends on the exercise.
Since the flavors never left me satisfied from any company I tried protein from, I decided to try the Unflavored version from Optimum Nutrition and it really is very good, it has no "weird" taste or smell, I put 2 scoops in half a liter of milk and it’s like drinking regular milk with an extra 48 grams of protein. The only negative I found is that it doesn't dissolve very well and leaves some small chunks unless you mix it for about 5 minutes
Very nice taste. It reminds me a lot of light Milko. Dissolves very easily. So far I can say that I feel less fatigue after the workout, time will tell of course.
With whatever I have mixed it, it is superb. Nice taste without bubbles. Whether in water or in milk, in yogurt or even with instant cream of yogurt, it gives a wonderful taste
Do not buy it, really the worst. Where to begin, 10% lecithin, low-quality sweeteners that later cause problems in the liver and kidneys. Search more for another brand. I recommend Dymatize
It is a quality protein without many additives such as vitamins, flavors, coloring agents etc. which does what you want as a dietary supplement to help you before or after the gym.
First, we are interested in the quality and the extra that we ask for as a meal without expecting magic.
The result will be very natural and without exaggeration.
Anyone who wants exaggerations goes to other products.
I chose the unflavored one and it tastes very nice.
It leaves a light taste/aroma, Milk and Vanilla powder.
It dissolves easily but taste-wise it's the worst protein I have ever tried, I was disappointed. I expected something much tastier for this price, but it's worse than proteins that cost half as much. Don't be swayed by the many reviews
For connoisseurs: we only take unflavored Whey protein, without a ton of sweeteners and artificial flavors, we are not kids to drink milkshakes, but athletes with goals! It dissolves easily, it's light like drinking water, no bloating.
Cookies and cream, I have never tasted a worse flavor, it doesn't remind me of cookies at all. As for the solubility, it is very good, but if it's not drinkable, what can you do with it?
I have tried most flavors of Gold Standard 100% Whey by ON, and I have the following to say:
- One of the highest quality on the market.
- The taste of the shake depends a lot on the liquid base. For example, I use almond milk (creamy texture like regular milk with 1/4 of the calories. Alpro Almonds no sugar 15kcal/100ml diluted for those trying to lose weight) and the taste differs slightly from the shake made with regular milk or vegan milk (oat, almond, etc.) or water. With water, the taste is average, without body, but water has 0kcal/100ml. With regular milk, the texture is full-bodied with a rich taste. In the cookies and cream flavor, it is not very noticeable, but in the banana cream flavor, with milk, the taste is truly like banana cream (melted banana ice cream), while with almond milk, it leans more towards banana smoothie, meaning it has a creamy texture but you can feel the banana as a light flavor every time. At least, that's how I feel when I dissolve 30g of protein in 200ml of almond milk (all measured with a scale).
- I noticed that the flavors with chocolate are more intense and "heavy" compared to the ones without. In other words, after having a shaker with a chocolate flavor, I needed a glass of water to cleanse the "chocolatiness" from my throat. With flavors like banana cream, I didn't have this need, they were much lighter.
- For those who haven't tried it, I recommend starting with double rich chocolate, which is quite safe as a first choice (or extreme milk chocolate, which reminds me a bit of lacta). If you quickly get bored of the taste, go for a 2lbs quantity to start, around 29-30 scoops, so you can continue with a different flavor.
- I don't know if it's a placebo effect or not, personally, I saw various improvements in my strength and in weight loss with maximum fat loss percentage. For those on a diet, I recommend having a conversation with your nutritionist for proper moderation of your diet.
5 stars for the best protein! I have tried several! It is the only one that dissolves so easily, just a simple spoonful, and it doesn't cause me any stomach issues
In one year moderate results.. I was swayed by the positive reviews.. I have tried several flavors with the best being strawberry.
The issue is that it comes out like water, if you put in 200mg and pay almost one euro per scoop.
While with others you get a delicious mix at 300 to 350mg.
You pay for what you pay for, at least you should be able to enjoy it and not just take a shot!
If you want something better, go for the one with the red box.
I use the unflavored ON protein for daily use in food, etc. for years. Pure protein without chemical additives and always after training I use the Dymatize ISO 100 Hydrolyzed Gourmet Chocolate, which although it contains sucralose (like all flavored ones), for 5 times a week it does not affect the normal functioning of the body.
I decided to try the Optimum Nutrition Double Rich Chocolate, which is the equivalent of Dymatize Gourmet Chocolate, after recommendations from friends and because Dymatize reached 90€.
As for the taste, if I compare it to Dymatize, it is worse and you can tell it is an artificial flavor, but that doesn't bother me since I don't act like a baby like most people do about the taste aspect.
What bothered me is that after training, once I take this specific protein, I feel tired and recovery lasts 1.5 days. After a week of use, I switched back to Dymatize and saw that fatigue and pain after training disappear the same day.
I did not expect this result, although I understand that I am comparing Hydrolyzed with unfiltered, I really did not expect such a difference. I have not tried any other Hydrolyzed after training so I do not have all the information to understand if the fact that it is Hydrolyzed plays a role or if ON simply does not work for after workout. It is worth noting that Dymatize has more amino acids than ON, so that definitely plays a role.
They could have been cheaper as they used to be at some point. Nevertheless, they are perhaps one of the best protein powders... I have been using it for many years... Now I finally get the unflavored one which has no taste or sweeteners.
I have read various comments about this specific protein. It is the first time I am using a dietary supplement of this kind as I have always been somewhat negative and cautious about supplements in general. I was recommended this one as a very good and clean supplement. To start, I tried the ice cream flavor as it was a safer choice for the taste issue. I can say that I had no problem and the taste was great. Then I proceeded to try the cookies flavor. When you smell it inside the box, it gives the impression that it smells like coffee. However, in terms of taste, it is great, at least for my own taste buds. A friend gave me to try the double rich chocolate which also left a very nice taste sensation and I will try it sometime.
For the month that I have been using it, I have not experienced any side effects from what I have read here. No bloating, no gas as some people write. Let's not forget that each organism reacts differently. So far, I have not encountered any problems. Yes, I would recommend it to someone to try it.
Double Rich Chocolate... Amazing protein.
Second time I'm getting the same one.
Fantastic taste, dissolves very easily, even with cold milk.
Personally, I use a shaker and shake it well there for 10-15 seconds and it's ready.
I put one scoop in about 250-300ml of milk. For those who are afraid, it's literally like cocoa, no difference, sweet taste, you enjoy drinking it.
That's it and happy shopping.
Attention, do not mix it with a mixer like a blender, my brother made a mistake when we first got the protein and it turned out terrible, there were literally huge chunks left inside, it went straight to the trash. Better to use a shaker or a blender.
I have been using the Dymatize iso100 for a while, so I decided to try this one in cookies flavor for a test. I don't know how to say it, but the iso, even though it made me bloated for a little while, this particular one gave me better results than the iso
It gave me stomach pains which other powders do not but my boyfriend was fine, so I can't recommend it for everybody.. maybe try a sample first. It tastes fine, very very sweet if you like that.
I think it's top in its category. It dissolves very easily and the double rich chocolate flavor is amazing. With almond milk, it's like cocoa and in yogurt, it's like chocolate pudding. If you want a strong flavor, you can mix it with water. I used to mix it with 100-120ml and it dissolves just as well.
So when it comes to taste:
The chocolate hazelnut one is my favourite one so far. It’s like drinking a chocolate out in a cafe with a hazelnut taste. I also tried the double rich chocolate one from a friend and it has an awesome taste too.
The cookies&cream one is disgusting…I tried it with water and milk (with milk it’s a little less disgusting). Unfortunately I bought the 908gr and I had to consume it so I added it to crepes and brownies (bc you can’t taste it that much).
Anyway, it’s a good protein and you can easily mix it in water. Just stay away from the weird ones such as the cookies and cream one.
