Optimum Nutrition Platinum Hydrowhey Protein Powder, 100% Hydrolyzed Whey Protein Isolate Powder, Flavor: Turbo Chocolate, 40 Servings, 3.61 Pounds (Packaging May Vary)

Optimum Nutrition is not new to the scene and they certainly produce great-value products, like their Gold Standard protein Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Gold Standard, Double Rich Chocolate, 5 Pound and multivitamins Optimum Nutrition Opti-Men Multivitamins, 180-Count However, Hydro Whey is expensive and a lesser value, but why is it worth it? First off, for all the hard gainers like myself out there, the increased content of BCAA's is important for protein anabolism. You can only create as much as the weakest link and without a single amino acid or fuel to create the essential ones, you are falling short. Secondly, this stuff mixes like a champ! We've all been there with the proteins that fail to mix well, leaving clumps to swallow and dry powder to lick out of our cups and shaker bottles. I highly recommend a shaker bottle Blender Bottle W/Wire Ball-Large 28 Oz. Colors Vary for all mixing purposes, for its convenience as well as efficiency. However, this is the ONLY protein I've ever been able to mix in a cup when a mixer/blender was not available and there are no clumps at all. It does produce a more frothy, lighter shake than does Gold Standard or even Platinum Hydrobuilder, making it easier to consume and break down. The taste is much smoother than its thicker Gold Standard counterpart. It will curb your appetite slightly (characteristic of all proteins), but not as bad as other protein shakes do which can be important when you need to consume that post-workout meal. Now, as to whether "hydrolyzed" whey is better than the regular stuff, that's for you to decide. It has worked for me, and I'm not going back to Gold Standard anytime soon for all the reasons above, but remember scientific 'philosophies' or lab work does not all translate to the same benefits in real-life applications like the human body (where everyone reacts differently). Hydro-Whey has been a winner for me, and I've tried many, many proteins before: Muscletech, BSN, Optimum, etc. Please do your research as different proteins have different applications and this stuff is reserved for primarily upon waking and immediately post-workout. If you're looking for meal replacement or anabolic longevity, look elsewhere. Hydro-whey provides instant fuel when your body needs it most, and to maximize muscle gains, I'm willing to pay a premium after working hard in the gym day in, day out.

Short review: This products works well, tastes great, and is easy on the stomach. I would recommend it. Longer review: I'll start off by briefly informing you that I use this product specifically to supplement my protein intake after a workout. Previously, I used Optimum Nutrition's Gold Standard Whey for the past ~2 years. Before that, I've used a few others and concluded that ON seems to deliver the best overall protein. That being said, I tried ON's Hydrowhey because hydrolyzed whey is absorbed very quickly after consumption. Taste (Turbo Chocolate): 9/10 Vanilla soymilk is my preferred base liquid, and this flavor tastes great with it. ...Probably even better than their Gold Standard Double Rich Chocolate flavor. Mixability: 8/10 I've used the same blender bottle for about two years as well, and this Hydrowhey seemed to clump up slightly more than their Gold Standard and stick to the lid of the bottle. Not a huge deal, but worth noting. Ingredients: 9.5/10 Lots of protein and not a whole lot of other garbage that a lot of commercial proteins contain. People will complain about artificial ingredients in their protein, but I'm not from that camp. Personally, I'd be upset if they started dumping sugar into it. It's also noteworthy that this protein powder (like other ON protein powders) has BCAAs, which is convenient, so that I don't have to order another product or even risk forgetting to take it. Digestability: 8/10 I include this because there's a common talking point about hydro whey being tough on your stomach. For this reason, I procrastinated in trying this, but I'm glad that I did. Personally, this maybe had an effect on my stomach about 5% of the time (maybe 2 or 3 days out of the first month that I used it). All in all, I'd recommend ON's hydrowhey. I only tried their Turbo Chocolate flavor, and it's definitely a winner. It's a little pricey, but the quality of ingredients and taste make it worth it. I paid full price for my whey and my opinions are my own. If you found this review to be helpful in any way, feel free to tap the "Yes" button to indicate this was helpful to you. Thanks!

المنتج وصلني بسياره مبرده وهاالامر جيد من امازون لكن مافيه ختم داخلي لكن المنتج اتوقع انه اصلي لكن التغليف يختلف من مكان لمكان

Its a tad sweet but when added to milk, taste like the most gorgeous milkshake I know. My trainer has asked me to cut to 0% fat fresh milk and it taste like water. This makes the milk taste rich again and with one cup of milk and one scoop of powder i am getting 7.5g +30g of protein a day. Making 100g of protein a day an easy target.

produto09 de muito boa qualidade

Proteína de excelente calidad, se digiere y se asimila muy bien, y el sabor en mi opinión está bastante logrado, sobre todo no es empachosa, no es excesivamente dulce y no tiene ese sabor a producto de farmacia (artificial) que tienen otras, pero eso ya depende del paladar de cada uno. Es el 4° bote que compro y me va perfectamente, y teniendo en cuenta que padezco desde hace años una enfermedad inflamatoria intestinal (Colitis Ulcerosa) y que soy muy sensible a cualquier alimento que no reúna unas condiciones óptimas, el hecho de que me siente tan bien y sea tan efectiva es indicativo de que se trata de un producto de primera. Totalmente recomendable.

Great taste! Love it! Good value for money. Very sweet taste so I only take half of the suggested dosage.
