Optimum NutritionGold Standard Whey Protein, Muscle Building Powder with Naturally Occurring Glutamine and Amino Acids, Double Rich Chocolate, 29 Servings, 899 g, Packaging May Vary

’ve been using Optimum Nutrition Whey regularly after workouts, and it’s become my go-to protein powder. It mixes effortlessly—no lumps or chalkiness—and the vanilla ice cream flavor is genuinely smooth and enjoyable . Each scoop delivers a solid hit of protein (24 g) along with BCAAs, which has really helped support my muscle recovery and keep me feeling full between meals.What I appreciate most is the consistency—every batch tastes the same, and it’s never gritty (). On top of that, the large tub lasts for weeks. Even though it ships from the US, delivery to the UK was smooth and wasn’t delayed.If you’re after a reliable, well-mixed whey powder with a pleasant flavor and solid nutritional profile, this one certainly delivers. It’s earned a permanent spot in my post-workout routine.

Great product. I don't usually write reviews but I think these guys deserve one. I have had many of these over the years and most of the flavours taste great. I have had the Chocolate Mint = Great. Vanilla Ice Cream = Great. Chocolate Peanut Butter = Great. Cookies and Cream = Ok (ish). White Chocolate Raspberry = Great. Banana = Great. Strawberry = Great.Like I said, most of these are great tasting and low in calorie with a nice portion of protein. They work a better with Milk than Water. But I don't mind having them with just water. But, if your feeling cheeky on your diet and nutrition, milk works well.They are also great mixed in to Oats, Pancakes and Yogurts if your feeling creative. Just purchase them and enjoy.

Very very good stuff.I’ve known about ‘Whey Protein’ & this brand of the stuff for years I just didn’t know that it repaired muscle otherwise I’d have been drinking this stuff for years now & probably would have toned myself in that time, now that’s not toned as in Stallone just as in sufficient muscle.It mixes up well giving the powder & milk (in my case) a blitz with a hand mixer then popping it into a bottle with a circular ball shaped spring inside (pictured & purchased from Amazon) for when it settles in that drinking container.Sometimes it can leave a little bit of a sickly feel on your stomach when you drink it but sometimes it doesn’t at all but it always helps me with prolonged work situations like cutting the large back garden grass down & for other things around the home like that, I’ve also noticed a little muscle build & less aching on my hamstrings so all’s good really I can definitely feel & see a difference from as previously mentioned more muscle on my lower legs to less aching at the end of the day, I get the strawberry flavour which is very nice just to mention.

Cookies & Crème flavour definitely stands out as one of the better flavours I've had so far, the others being Extreme Milk Chocolate Flavour and Vanilla Ice Cream Flavour. The taste is spot on—it actually tastes like a cookies and cream milkshake, just less sweet which I honestly prefer. It's something that's nice to have after a workout and it's nice to have so many flavours to choose from and work your way through. Only downside is in my opinion it's not the best flavour I've had and you have to pay slightly more money for less servings. 4 stars

This stuff was so tasty. Made me feel full in the mornings and lunch time. Be careful though, I thought I never got a scoop with it but you do, its just planted at the bottom and I didn't know till half way down with a soup spoon lol.Honestly though people, its popular for a reason, this flavour was ok but didn't taste exactly like it says but it wasn't a bad taste so still happy. Mixes well too in water or milk. The durability of the case is premium too, nice and study, there was no leaks or damage.It was very smooth both mixing and swallowing.

One of the nicest tasting protein powders I've had, I highly recommend the vanilla ice cream flavour, works great on everything!

Firstly it mixes very well, 30secs in a shaker. Leaves no lumps and has a smooth consistency.Taste - No powdery aftertaste, just very sweet though. It is kind of like a hot chocolate with sugar . So less chocolatey than I expected. I mix with water so maybe milk would give it a more smoother finish.Nutritional content is good for one scoop. Well for my needs. 24g of protein helps me get my goal for the day.Easy to use scoop included, even though I had to dig for it.Size and price make it good value for money.I will definitely buy this brand again, but maybe look at different flavours.

I am not one to often write reviews which shows how right Optimum Nutrition have got it. I have had the chocolate flavour which I love in my porridge in winter and the strawberry one for a refreshing protein drink post drink in the warmer months. It’s light and not a single chunk of protein powder left while drinking. It dissolves well and tastes great with just water. I hate the taste of protein drinks but they just have absolutely got it perfect and great for training. Highly recommend 🙏
