Customer Reviews

casein4
Casein is a great, long-lasting protein, perfect for right before bed as its aminos are release more slowly than whey. Casein, in general, is bland (think no fat, no salt, cottage cheese), and harder to mix than whey. Optimum Nutrition has here a decent casein, that is not too bad tasting and mixes better than most every other casein I've tried. The price is ok, but I'd like to see it cheaper (who wouldn't?). I mix it with whey and use it throughout the day. I have tried and rejected the chocolate flavor.

Excellent Product5
If you have looked into protein supplements then you are familiar with this type. Taste good for the most part, a little hard to mix with a spoon or fork but that is to be expected.

I have not tried any of the other Casein products.

Very tasty4
This may be the best tasting supplement ever. There is no funky protein taste or after taste. I mix it with water and it tastes like very good chocolate milk.
I couldn't give it perfect marks because it is a little hard to mix. I use a shaker and always have at least a little clumping. But the taste is so good that I don't really mind.

lumps3
tastes bad,mixes even worse. no matter what,there will be lumps. even if you use a blender ther will still be some irritating lumps.I tried to heat up the water a bit and it mixes better, but smells bad and i read somehwere that it messes up the proteins.
Again, this does not remotely taste like banana, more like some chemical taste.

Whey Powder5
My son has colitis, and has lost almost 50 pounds. He's on the Specific Carbohydrate Diet, and he can't have foods with gluten, dairy, starch, or sugars (other than natural). We use the Whey powder and mix it in his food to help gain weight. It's slowly helping him to gainhis weight back. I know the whey is a dairy product, but the process removes the lactose, so he can stomach it. Since he's really sensative to dairy, and sugars, other whey products have failed in the past. This one appears to work

Customer Reviews

Great in so many ways5
This is the protein for me, I'm sold. It's better than its own advertisements. Yes it really is absolutely tasteless (it does have a very pleasant but mild aroma - kinda reminds me of strawberries, but I only notice it when I first open up the jar), so you can add it to anything with a stronger taste than water and not know the difference. Yes it really is "instantized" unless you start trying to mix it at a thicker than recomended rate. I've taken it staight with nothin but water or milk, in hot and cold chocolate, in cereal, in oatmeal, in my O.J., I've toyed with putting it into my scrambled egss but what would be the point? Anyways, I've thrown together my own little protein drinks a half a dozen different ways already and I haven't scratched the surface. But wait there's more! Optimum makes no claims about this whey's other fantastic properties and I can't for the life of me figure out why.

I emailed them and they responded the same day to say that the stuff is virtually ("90%-98%") lactose free, which is a big relief since I have allot of lactose intollerance in the family.

The stuff is made in the USA. 17 grams of protein per serving, there's 60 servings in a jar. That's 1020 grams of the absolute best protein on earth. Amazon's price: $21 per jar. That's what? two cents per gram of protein/ 35 cents per serving?!? Somebody check my math, I'm not sure if that could possibly be right. Compare that to other protein blends- I need to do more checking but I'd bet that's a comparable $/gram of protein to even the cheapest of the multitudes of new and improved snake oil enriched super fantabulated suplemental mega bloat mixes. Then compare that to your average starbucks bill. Shoot, compare that to what you have to put into vending machines to get what rolls out.

If you aren't sold/bored yet then consider this: Whey proein as compared to all other protein types (egg, standard milk, soy, etc) is the best across the board and should (and usually does) have a cost to match. It is the easiest on your stomach, fastest into your system, and best for muscle tissue gains/ weight maintenance (it's what doctors have used to get HIV and wasted chemo/radiation patients to hold the line and even re-grow). It has immune system enhanceing properties that make it almost medicinal. It has anti cancer properties beyond its immune enchanceing ones, but especially for those who are about to undergo radiation/chemothereapy (I can't explain the mechanisms but it selectively puts the cancer cells frontmost when the treatments are taking place so that they are the first to die and easiest to kill) Carefully and expensively processed Whey proteins (whey protein isolates) should cost even more than the standard concentrates. But Any whey doesn't cost hardly nothin', what gives?
Now... search for a protein supplement, of any kind, that doesn't come with that wonderful and ever palatable "NEW CHOCOLATE BANANA PEPPER FLAVOR!" Or have any fat. Or any carbohydrates (well actually it does have 1 gram per serving). No sugars, no sugar alcohols, no indigestible sugar substitutes, no taste (no, wait, that's a good thing!), and one that can be measured into any recipe of any kind for an endless variety of ways to be used. 60 servings-17 grams per serving-21 dollars.
The stuff's good enough to inspire me to peck away for an hour now to sing it's unsung praises. Now I think I'll go have a high protein bowl o' whey-augmented dreario's so my poor finger muscles have something to regrow with.

Good Stuff5
I looked for a whey protein on the market that did not have artificial sweeteners and was about to give up until I came across Any Whey by Optimum Nutrition at GNC.

It tastes pretty good if you ask me. And it has the same whey protien isolate as the more expensive brands with all the artificial sweeteners, which I am trying to avoid because I have been told they are not good for you.

Very good product and about time some manufacturer released something that is not loaded with either Nutrisweet, Aspertame or acesulfame potassium (search for this last one on the internet if you want a good scare).

FANTASTIC!!!5
I recently had weight loss surgery, and had to take protein shakes for a few weeks. I tried all different types of protein products and they were AWFUL, until I came across ANY WHEY. This product is a wonderful!! I can mix it with any liquid and it is virtually tasteless!! I have also mixed it with foods also to add the extra protein that I need in my diet. I still make shakes for breakfast and one for a snack in the evening using this product. I give it 5 stars!!

Others are poorly assimilated by the body. Protein scoring systems including Biological Value (BV), protein digestibility corrected amino acid score (PSAAS), and protein efficiency ratio (PER) are often used to help classify various protein types based on amino acid patterns, digestibility, and the degree to which the body can actually use the protein for growth and rebuilding. Of all the proteins out there, whey proteins rank highest in all measures of protein quality. Whey protein is rich in all eight essential amino acids, rapidly digested, and easily assimilated.

Customer Reviews

taste not as good as strawberry flavored5
ON Whey protein is effective for those who want to build big muscle but it also helps in any sport as most sports rely on body muscle, and this product prevent protein deprivation in our body, and protein is the raw material that our body use to develop strong muscle, hence it improves our performance each time after workout. It contains BCAAs amino acids that eliminate fatigue in our body muscle after heavy workout. Price is good. I have tried strawberry flavor before, so when I first try vanilla flavor, it is not as good. I still prefer strawberry flavor. The reason that I choose vanilla is because I guess vanilla flavors don't have artificial coloring whereas strawberries are. Since I'm taking it very regularly I tend to be cautious.

Good taste4
Some people do not like the taste of this one but I do and think it goes well with the soy milk that I mix it with.

Smells and tastes like vanilla ice cream!!5
Well, i have previously rated this protein in a different, worse flavor and gave it 5 stars, but after having tried the BSN Syntha-6 products, the most i can give it is 4/5, but that is in the flavor department. I can not put them at the sasme level. That would be unfair to Syntha-6 and anyone reading reviews to try to make a decision on a purchase.

In terms of quality of the protein I think everybody knows this is a very high quality product. If you are training and are not supplementing with protein you are probably not at your 100% because the requirements of protein for a good balanced diet are way above the FDA suggested ranges. This product is very good for people trying to lose weight because it gives you a lot of protein and practically none carbs and fats. Mixed with one cup of skim milk tthe shake has barely 200 calories giving you a total of about 30grams of protein (24g the protein powder and 6-8 the milk).

As i said, this is a very tasteful produt, but if you are trying to get something to make the protein comsumption delightful you need to look to Syntha6. You will have to pay a much higher price per dose though. That is why this product must be consider excvellent too: it is one of the cheapest protein that you can buy, making it very good bang gfor your buck.

OPTIMUM NUTRITION 100% CASEIN PROTEIN CHOC 4LB, 4.65 Tub

Product Description

Sometimes slower is better - especially when it comes to the rate of protein digestion. While rapid protein absorption is desirable immediately before or after exercise, delayed release is probably more beneficial throughout the remainder of the day. Casein proteins are pH sensitive and gel in the acidic environment of the stomach. As a result, it can take more than twice as long for caseins to be broken-down into their amino acid subcomponents than whey and other proteins. Because of their unique time-released qualities, caseins are aptly described as anti-catabolic or muscle-protecting proteins. BEYOND THE BASICS 24 g Instantized Blend of SLOW-DIGESTING CASEIN-Based Proteins Rich in Highly Anti-Catabolic MICELLAR CASEIN Over 9 g of BCAAs, Glutamine, and Glutamine Precursors per Scoop Only 3-4 g of Carbs

Gold Standard Casein Protein5
This stuff is awesome. I take it at night before I go to bed, when I wake up I am never hungery and my muscles feel good. I take Whey gold standard after exercise and this in the evening, I have made gains since starting this product. The vanilla flavor is alright but I got tierd of it quickly, perhaps the chocolate flavor would have been a better choice.

Best milk protein5
It's the best milk protein available in the market. I love the "creamy vanilla" flavor, and I take it everyday: first thing in the morning, and last thing before I hit the bed! I highly recommend it for people who are very serious about exercise workouts, as slow protein release is necessary part of body building.

Yummo, Yummo5
The vanilla flavored casein is excellent. It tastes just like a vanilla milkshake! I never noticed any aftertaste. I would definately recommend the vanilla to anyone, especially low carber's.

100% Gold Standard Casein Protein (Natural) Chocolate Creme 4 lbs

Product Description
Rapid protein use is desirable immediately before and after exercise to help refuel recovering muscles, but delayed digestion and absorption may be more beneficial at other times including bedtime when your body typically goes for hours without food. Casein proteins are sensitive and tend to thicken in the stomach. Because of this, it can take more than twice as long for our Gold Standard Natural 100% Casein to be broken down into its amino acid subcomponents than other proteins. Gold Standard Natural 100% Casein is also free of artificial flavors, sweeteners, and synthetic colors and uses only premium micellar caseins to create a protein that's truly time-released.

Customer Reviews

ON 100% Natural Casein tastes like Choc. Pudding5
I like the taste! I mix ON 100% Natural Casein powder in a cup with a little water so it has the consistency of Choc. Pudding. It has a smell similar to cake mix.
I only purchase ON products that are labled 100% NATURAL since they do not contain SUCRALOSE which I cannot tollerate!! I have early onset type2 diabetes, so I must have a bedtime snack that is long lasting and doesn't spike my blood sugar. This product fills the bill perfectly!!

Taste like Chalk3
I'm reviewing the chocolate crème mix. I don't have any problem mixing with a shaker cup, no clumps or dry balls. The taste does take some getting used to though. I liken the taste to chalk. After a few shakes, you kind of get use to the chalky taste though. I will continue to use this product though as I use it for meal replacement before I go to bed and it does seem to help.

Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard 100% Instantized Whey, Rocky Road, 10.37-Pound Bag

Customer Reviews

Good value5
10 lbs of protein might be a bit of overkill, but if you are planning on working out, especially weight lifting, this stuff can go quick. The rocky road flavor is good, not too much different than a chocolate, and the powder blends very well, even with just water, which is the way I use it most of the time. All in all it is a great product.

5.
Double Rich Chocolate

Taste 9
After Taste None
Comment: Great Flavor and could easily be taken after a work out. Does not have
an overpowering candy flavor like some of the other flavors. For a

6.
Caramel Toffee Fudge

Taste 2
After Taste Like you just downed a pound of sugar
Comment: Take this after a work out if you want to vomit. This flavor is Very
Overpowering with Candy/sugar flavors. Ghastly to say the least

7.
Choco Mocha Capacino
Made with Water
Taste 6
After taste Like a coffee, obviously
Comment: I don't mind this flavor, but buying this in bulk is putting your self
in a position to obtain a gag reflex from any thing coffee related.

8.
Chocolate Malt
With vitamin D Milk
Taste 5
After Taste A weird stomach Coating feel
Comment: Ya, it felt like my stomach was being coated in chocolate milk.
Not a good feeling, No way could I drink this on a daily basis.


9.
Cookies and Cream
With vitamin D Milk
Taste 4
After Taste A weird taste
Comment: I don't know how to explain this, it has little crumbs of cookies that have
nothing to do with the taste, this doesn't taste at all like cookies or cream.



10.
Root Beer Float
With vitamin D Milk
Taste 8
After Taste None
Comment: Not too shabby, a strong taste of ice cream with a wet kiss of root beer.
I don't know how I would feel after a work out drinking this, but it is
pleasant.


11.
Tropical Punch
With vitamin D Milk
Taste 7
After Taste Sits in stomach
Comment: Creamy fruit punch taste. The product sits in your stomach however and
and the feeling doesn't pass for a good 20 minutes.

12.
Banana Cream
With vitamin D Milk
Taste 6
After Taste None
Comment: Wonderful flavor however it doesn't measure up to some of the others.
The other fruit flavors were great and this one seem to more like a
Banana laxative.
13.
Vanilla Cream
With vitamin D Milk
Taste 7
After Taste None
Comment: Taste was very much like the Vanilla ice cream. The flavor was good however I
do not think it was worthy of a 5 pound bucket. You would most likely
get tired of this flavor very quickly, and it is very sweet.

14.
Vanilla Ice Cream
With vitamin D Milk
Taste 4
After Taste None
Comment: Taste was alright, seemed to resemble powdered milk mix with extra sugar added
I was not a fan of this one by no means, if you really like Vanilla I would
suggest buying a 2 pound bucket and try that first.
15.
Strawberry
With vitamin D Milk
Taste 8
After Taste None
Comment: My default, one thing to note though is that the "ON" label makes the sample
far different than the bucket servings. The sampler was rather good, the bucket
I would give one less point. This is my default though and I have yet to get tired
of it. I honestly love the Banana Strawberry much more though... BY FAR!


16.
Orange Cream
With vitamin D Milk
Taste 7
After Taste None
Comment: I only give this an 8 because I love the fruit flavors and I love oranges.
This flavor however was VERY disappointing. This tastes exactly like the
wonderful Orange cream pops you used to eat when you were little. After a
work out I don't see how anyone could down a sweet ice cream flavored orange
sugar pop. ...Ya, so I didn't care for this too much, if you like the sweet
stuff, and you love oranges, this could be just for you.


I like it.4
It tastes good. It mixes good. What more do you want? And it's cheap! I feel better about not getting artificial stuff in my mix. I've tasted better, but not for this kind of money.

Definitely recommended.

Bad taste!2
This protein is the worst-tasting I have tried so far. I've tried mixing it with water, skim milk, and even in a shake, but I had trouble getting past the taste. I wouldn't buy this brand again!

Customer Reviews

Not "tasteless"3
I bought this to use in smoothies for a balanced meal. I had tried another brand and didn't like the strong vanilla taste, so I bought this because it was described as being virtually tasteless. However, after using it for a couple of days, it too has a very noticeable vanilla taste, which isn't terrible but not desired. It looks like full-fat powdered milk and produced a thickened creamy consistency to my smoothies. I guess I should have realized that there would be some taste to it, but I am not familiar with protein powders. Maybe this is as "virtually tasteless" as it gets.

good for smoothies, not so good for savory dishes3
I bought this product specifically because it was unflavored and unsweetened. There are many vanilla and chocolate products (my personal favorite is Designer Whey) for smoothies, but I wanted a way to boost the protein content of savory foods such as soups, stews, spaghetti sauce, etc.

Unfortunately the product does have a slightly sweet, milky flavor. The flavor is fine in a smoothie or other sweet application but just tastes all wrong in beef soup or tomato sauce or other savory, non-milk recipes.

On the plus side, the texture is good compared to many powders and as long as you don't mind the subtle sweetness, the flavor is good. My husband has taking to adding this to his morning smoothies and loves it.

We LOVE Any Whey5
From our 8 year old to the adults in the house, we all love this product! Added to our soy milk - plop in a banana and ice - and we have a delicious breakfast replacement drink. It has wonderful benefits without the nasty "flavor" -- and after taste of all the other protein powders.

Our kids like the occassional treat of muffins and pancakes in the morning. By adding a scoop or two of ANY WHEY to those muffin mixes, pancakes, etc. our kids get their "treat" with extra protein to help them make it through the morning.

This 2.7# tub is less expensive than the cost of a 1# tub at the local nutrition store. GREAT DEAL!
