Customer Reviews of BSN Syntha-6 Protein Powder, Vanilla Ice Cream, 2.91 Pound
Customer Review: Wow - best tasting powder yet! Vanilla Ice Cream flavor
Summary: 4 Stars
Well, I've been trying out various protein powders this year, for trying to lose weight, not for working out.
As I type this, I have six different brands in house in various flavors. Syntha-6 beats them all on the flavor.
I try the mixes with milk, but judge them on how I normally drink them, which is with cold water.
(Milk and I don't agree very much, so I have to limit my milk intake drastically.)
So far, I've only tried the Syntha-6 in the Vanilla Ice Cream flavor. I read through almost all the reviews before purchasing,
and looked up more on the actual contents of the product on another site. (This is a downfall of Amazon's - they don't provide enough
information on the ingredients for food products! To list foods, I wish they'd require at minimum that the Nutrition Facts label contents be posted!
Anyway, I must say that this powder has fantastic flavor, both with water and with milk. It is higher in calories than
some of the other brands out there, but has more protein. One of the reasons I tried it (and the reason I rule out many other brands/flavors) is that this has NO ASPARTAME. I am allergic to it, and must watch all foods and supplements carefully for it being
snuck in to the mixes. This does have some corn syrup in it, which is probably why it tastes so good! But, if you are someone who is avoiding corn sweeteners, then note that this item has it.
It tastes a lot like a bowl of good vanilla ice cream that melted would taste. Yes, it is that creamy and tasty.
My only real complaint about this item is that it makes a very thin-bodied shake. It is like a glass of vanilla milk
in texture. If you mix it with water, it looks like really cheap skim milk. That's a bit of a put-off. I ended up mixing it half and half with a flavor of Spiru-Tein and got a decent, tasty thick shake. (Note that I really don't like Spiru-tein's vanillas - there's not much hope for them. But other flavors mix nicely with this brand's vanilla.)
Now, note that I have limitations in my mixing that many others won't have. I am partially disabled, so can't always get ice
when I want it, or just throw some frozen fruit into the mix. Many times, I am home alone and the kitchen is downstairs, out of my reach. I did try this with ice, and that helped A LOT. Definitely better and a tad thicker when ice cubes were added to the mix. But, I don't see why Syntha-6 doesn't add a little more of some type of thickener to the mix. It would make a world of difference in
the general texture of the drink. I haven't tried adding a little guar gum myself yet, so don't know if that would help.
Here is the ingredient list:
A Sustained Release Ultra-Premium Protein Matrix Comprised of (Ultrafiltered Whey Protein Concentrate [Milk] Rich in Alpha-Lactalbumin, Microfiltered Whey Protein Isolate [Milk] Rich in Whey Isolate Peptide Fractions, Calcium Caseinate, Micellar Alpha and Beta Caseins and Caseinates [Milk], Milk Protein Isolate [Milk], and Egg Albumen [Egg], Glutamine Peptides), Richmix Sunflower Powder Consisting of (Sunflower Oil, Corn Syrup Solids, Sodium Caseinate [Milk], Mono- and Di-Glycerides, and Dipotassium Phosphate), Litesse II Polydextrose, Natural and Artificial Flavors, Nutrisperse MCT Powder Consisting of (Medium Chain Triglycerides, Non-Fat Dry Milk, Disodium Phosphate, and Silicon Dioxide), Ticalose Cellulose Gum, Sucralose, Acesulfame Potassium, Lecithin [Soy], Aminogen, and Papain.
Overall, I really like this product. Since I started using it, my nails have been growing like crazy! Not sure if it is related to this product, but it was certainly a change I experienced. I don't feel hungry afterwards, and it doesn't leave me with "hairy tongue" like some powders do. I definitely will be trying some other flavors as the finances allow.
