Chocolate

Syntrax isn't the most popular company on Bodybuilding.com, but they do put together some solid products. The formulation of Essence is the biggest appeal; the profile offers one gram of carbohydrates, zero fat and 23 grams of protein per 100-calorie scoop. But this isn't just a whey isolate, it's actually an extended-release blend featuring whey isolate, milk protein isolate and soy protein isolate. Obviously, this contains zero sugar, but the taste is pretty impressive considering that fact. The chocolate isn't very deep or fudge-like, but it's a rich flavor that doesn't taste watered down. The consistency is a tad on the thin side, but it mixes instantly and smoothly. No grittiness or lumps to be seen. The price is actually pretty good considering the profile - 36 servings for 27 cents at BB.com.

Hey all, i've tried about every and i mean EVERY supplement out there..i guess i was destined to turn myself into a gueine pig..but oh well, to the review!!

The protein powder is made to preserve muscle, it's more along the lines of a slow digesting casein powder than a faster digesting whey powder, even though it has both in it. It doesn't really increase muscle mass, but it greatly prevents one from loosing it when you go to bed, so i think it's helped me in my lifts though just by preventing muscle breakdown at night..which is a Godsend. I noticed it mixes well AND tastes great too..The days after my workouts im still sore but i really reduces that "im gonna take a week off from the gym" feeling..the label doesnt lie.

OH, and it's got plenty of BCAA's and EAA in it, which we all know causes nitrogen retention resulting in more muscle post workout..honestly it's good shit..no joke
