5.0 out of 5 stars Double Rich Chocolate Review, April 3, 2012
This review is from: Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Gold Standard, Double Rich Chocolate, 5 Pound (Health and Beauty)
When it comes to a no non-sense protein powder, one that has extras such as glutamine and BCAA's, and at the same time has a minimal amount of fat and carbs...this is the protein to get. This isn't a meal replacement or should be used as one, if that's what your looking for try muscle milk which is high in protein but also other calories as well.

This is your post-workout protein shake plain and simple. I always add one banana either in the blender or just eat it separately, and when I'm in bulking phase I'll also add one tablespoon of peanut butter and bam, you have yourself a meal replacement too if that's what you prefer. Not to mention, its freaking delicious with the peanut butter!

One simple thing I have been adding to for help in the gym is an amino acid called Beta Alanine Bulk Powder 100 Grams. This... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Why This is the one of the best Protein Supplement in the Market, A critical analysis from a Bio technologist, August 28, 2011
This review is from: Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Gold Standard, Double Rich Chocolate, 5 Pound (Health and Beauty)
As a fitness enthusiast and a Science guy, I am always curious to find the real value of a supplement. What works and what does not work. More importantly, I believe the analysis of a product should be based on strong scientific knowledge base, combined with good old fashion practical use of the product, and only then one should come down to the final conclusion.

This product review and analysis was conducted based on 3 parameters

A. Constituents: What comes in the box, the real value of the product
B. Assimilation: How does this product goes down in your system, how much of it will your body absorb
C. Usability : Long term usability and and effects.

I believe this is one of the best supplements available in the market today. The Question is Why?

1. The Quality of protein. Since its manufactured by Glanbia (who owns Optimum nutrition), this product is coming straight from the manufacturer. This is a BIG factor, 90% of the protein... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars This is the best Whey Protein!, May 15, 2011
By 
This review is from: Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Gold Standard, Double Rich Chocolate, 5 Pound (Health and Beauty)
I've used Optimum Nutrition's Whey Protein for many years and always loved it. Occasionally I have tried other brands and always come back. The price is right and the flavors are usually great. Double Rich Chocolate tastes alright. I'm not going to lie, it doesn't have the best taste. It used to taste quite a bit better but over the years the flavor has changed. Not as good as it used to be but the ingredient list has been improved. With 24 grams of protein and 5 BCAA's, yet only 3 carbs, you can't go wrong!

The powder mixes easily in any shaker bottle. I usually mix it with water, but it tastes better if you mix it with milk and/or some fruit. Goes down easy with a few ice cubes.

Again! This is the best protein on the market for the price! Sure Optimum Nutrition Hydrowhey is a more refined product that can be digested a little better, but for the price you can't beat this Gold Standard.

I have also tried a couple other flavors. Double Rich Chocolate... Read more
