100% Gold Standard Whey from Optimum Nutrition is a terrific product both economically and performance wise. This is a great tasting whey protein with 24g of pure protein and only 1g fat and 3g carbs per serve, it is also full of excellent quality BCAA's, these factors make the product ideal for somebody aiming to stay lean while putting on lean mass. I took 100% Gold Standard Whey for close to 3 months before my supply ran out :( , it mixes perfectly and is easy on the stomach, helping you to perform without feeling weighed down. I noticed no negative side effects from this product and the positives were increased energy, recovery and consistent muscle gain. The price is reasonable considering the quality and I would recommend trying this product!

Finding a good protein can sometimes be hard, some taste bad, some have bad profile, some are filled with glycine and taurine that you don't want in your protein mix. Optimum Nutrition did good in their 100% Whey, the profile is nice and isn't filled with junk. I tried the Extreme Milk Chocolate flavor and it tasted really good, without the need of artificial sweeteners. The low carbohydrate content (4g) and the fact that it only has 1g of sugar makes this an ideal protein for those trying to cut down weight on a low carb diet. With 24g of protein for 120 calories, the 100% Whey protein is a good source to help you get your daily protein intact without having fear of consuming too many calories. I have used it in milk and water, both mix very well and wont leave many chunks in your shaker cup as long as you give it a good shaking before using. Overall, I would recommend this protein to anyone, the cost per serving is pretty low and you get great quality product.

Although the price is more expensive then most whey proteins on the market, Optimum Nutrition's 100 % whey has always been my go to protein source. I usually stick with buying the chocolate flavored mixes since the taste of them are bar to none the best on the market. Whether you mix the whey with water or milk you can not deny it tastes great which is nice to have with a whey protein (especially when cutting weight). The mixibility is instant and you do not need to spend minutes shaking your bottle to get rid of the clumps like most protein powders, it's also very smooth not heavy & thick. The amino acid profile is great for recovery, fat loss & muscle gain. I definitely recommend this product to anyone who hates the taste of cheap whey. ON 100% Whey has always been & always will be the best whey protein on the market.

The product I reviewed is ON gold standart 100% whey, Mocha Cappucino Flavor.

I mixed It with milk, It mixes O.K (a bit of powder residue on the side of the shaker sometimes) but Overall it mixes alright. The taste on the other hand is amazing. With milk It taste similar to a starbucks frappucino or a Tim Hortons Iced cappucino. Perfect balance between sweet and unsweetned.

The product itself is protein, So I can't speak over muscle/strenght gain, it is just a food supplement.

Overall :

Flavor 9/10
Mixability 7/10
Cost/value 8/10
