I use optimum nutrition platinum hydro whey protein. I find that other powders have too many calories and or high cholesterol. I love bacon and eggs too much. I don't need my protein powder to also load me up on cholesterol.
Been using Optimum Nutrition Isolate/Hydrolyzed and Dymatize Iso-100 for about 10 years now. Pretty reliable and I always get the chocolate flavour
I’ve been using ON. Taste pretty good. I’ve recently bought PEscience since I just wanna try out something different. Haven’t tried it yet but did watch some reviews on YouTube and it’s generally positive
I buy it for 2 purpose. One is to mix into shake. The other is to make into protein ice cream. I have like 3-4 scoops left of my ON to finish before I can start on PEscience
I’ve used a ton of chocolate from Kirkland and ON. Not a big enough difference for me to care so I go off price. Vanilla wise, ON since Kirkland doesnt have it. I feel like the vanilla ON might be sweet for you. Currently, I’m doing Levels vanilla and chocolate, its the most “real” tasting one of them all IMO, has the best ingredients IMO, and is on sale right now so its a no brainer for me :)
Second this. Optimum nutrition off their Lazada store You can also find alternatives/ natural products from Organic Village online store
love pescience. I used to drink ON but then my stomach would always gurgle a little after. no issues with pescience and the flavours are better than ON imo!
Kirkland first for best balance of flavor and price. ON always overall winner on taste and texture, but inenevr buy it from Costco due to price.
It seems about the same to me, but after trying it I did go back to ON and similar ones when they are on sale. The Kirkland one is more my backup one.
ON. Shakes well with little effort, no clumps. Flavors are meh but I can always doctor it up if I’m feeling froggy.
Pretty sweet I’d say. Packaging recommends 8oz to mix (I use almond or oat milk) but I find 14-16oz best for flavor and consistency.
I’ve tried ON, Ascent, and Levels. Out of those three, I prefer Levels.
It really depends what country you’re in and what you can get your hands on. I personally prefer a WPI powder, International Protein is good but it can give you some mad shits, ON is okay, but I’m not a huge fan of how it tastes, Pure Supps I found are really good but I don’t know what countries they’re available in. If you have Optimum Nutrition, try their Gold Standard Isolate, I find that’s better on the stomach and tastes better than Standard Whey.
