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.
Isopure or ON Gold Standard Isolate (gold packaging) or ON Platinum Hydro Whey (except for Isopure, both of the ON products aren’t available officially in India, but if you can get this from abroad or from trusted sources in India, some stores do sell imported supplements, then they’re absolutely worth the cost) I have used the Hydro whey, ISO 100, Isopure, and all of them are just great. Iso sensation is also a very good isolate, the protein ratio is crazy good (above 90%)
I have the least discomfort with hydrolyzed whey. Optimum Nutrition offers this.
Optimum Nutrition Platinum Hydro Whey. 30g protein per scoop, and the Milk Chocolate version is delicious.
Optimum Nutrition Platinum Hydrowhey. 30g protein per scoop.
The process of how it's made, look it up. I like it better than the standard Optimum Nutrition, because it has 30g vs 24g protein per scoop. It's also tastier. The 2nd best is the default Optimum Nutrition whey, always has been.
Platinum Hydrowhey by ON is great when it's cheap but lately it's been around $100 for 3.5lbs (no thanks) 10lb of gold standard cost me $90 on amazon recently 🤷♂️
Flavor-wise: Wheyl. Their line of whey concentrates have like a dozen flavors. I suggest buying 1lb bag na diff flavors if you're the type na mabilis maumay. I have a sensitive stomach but I haven't had issues so far, esp considering I take about 2~4 scoops per day. But if you're really particular about taking isolates due to potential GI issues, you can try ON. They don't have as many flavors (I mean, they do but hindi naman lahat available sa local retailers so limited lang din talaga choices) but they're easy on the gut. Double rich choco and french vanilla are good, safe flavors.
