Customer Reviews of Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Gold Standard, Double Rich Chocolate, 5 Pound
Customer Review: Good Drink, Great Taste
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm a VERY picky eater! Just ask my girlfriend, family and friends :-)
Yet I must say that this is is a good drink! That is if you like chocolate. Mix one cup of the powder (very fine) along with 8 oz of milk (skim, etc.) and it taste even better than chocolate milk! The secret is to mix it up REAL good! I mean for minute, or if you have a mixer or blender that's even better. But I usually (for time reasons) mix it after breakfast with a spoon then drink it up.
The price has gone up since a year ago. However I think that's because it's gone up everywhere else as well. However with having it shipped free to your house and no tax (through Amazon), you don't have to go wrong! No lugging it home in a huge bag/box, just order and have it delivered to your door free!
Customer Review: Great product for the price
Summary: 4 Stars
The price is fantastic, the taste is great, it dissolves well, and this is the best part: only 10% of your daily cholesterol intake per scoop! Most other brands range from 20% or more, which, if you're taking two scoops after workout and eating an egg or two in the morning, will add up to one unhealthy diet. This brand helps manage your cholesterol while maintaining a pleasing taste. And yes, the taste is actually pretty good.
The only negative is the artificial sweetener used. For the same price, you can get their Natural series, which has no artificial sweetener. I suggest that product instead if you're worried about the effects of sucralose on your body.
Did I mention the price? $0.50 an ounce! Insane!
Customer Review: Good as always!
Summary: 5 Stars
Optimum Nutrition has been #1 rated protein for years now. There is good reason for it. Its the highest quality of protein, the taste is absolutely amazing, and the price point is better then anything your going to find.
it doesnt contain other supplements, just straight protein. It doesnt clump up when your mixing it, it doesnt have a horrible after taste either. Its just straight wholesome goodness.
This stuff cuts recovery time from muscle exhaustion dramatically. Literally over nite muscle soreness evaporates into a figment of your imagination. Im not a rep for Optimum, just a proud user for quite a few years now.
I will always buy Optimum, and nothing else!!
Customer Review: Best taste and mixes very well
Summary: 5 Stars
I have had gastric bypass and I have tried a lot of protein mixes and this one is the best every once I found this one I haven't had to try another one again. This one dissolves and isn't chalky. It tastes like choc milk. I use only non fat milk cause it does make your milk thicker and that's ok for me. I used to have this 3 times a day but now I only need it for breakfast and it is feeling and satisfying until I have my first break at work. And now that I found it on Amazon it mails out to me and I don't have to worry the store is going to be out any more and it was cheaper then in the store. Yea for me! And it has very low sugar and high protein. Try it you might like it.Customer Review: Great tasting, excellent pregnancy supplement
Summary: 5 Stars
Having tried many different protein shakes and bars, this one is by far the best tasting. It's not dessert or anything, but if you make it with at least half of the liquid as whole milk it's really great for a protein shake. It's not bad made with just water either. With my last pregnancy my OB suggested that I get at least 75g of protein a day (which is quite a bit if you look at nutrition info). I brought in the nutrition label for this product and she approved it as safe for me to have once or twice a day while pregnant. I'd suggest asking your own OB before starting to drink them all the time, but they're the best option in my opinion.
