Customer Review: Chocalate plus natural sweetners. What else to ask for?
Summary: 5 Stars
My family started really getting into working out about 2 years ago. We started with a rowing machine and then added weight room training and cardio (Wife likes Leslie Sansome walk DVDs). When we started the weight lifting, I decided to add Smoothies to our diet. After researching online for ways to supplement fiber and protein, I came up with Whey protein for the protein supplement and stove top cooked popcorn for fiber.
I looked at many protein supplements. My wife and I did not want substitue sweetners. Practically all of them have various versions of substitute sweetners. This one does not. It uses, a stevia derivative which comes from the sunflower family or so wikipedia tells me. It works for us! I don't really go for really sweet chocolate and this is not really sweet, and I do not detect any bitterness.
Here's how I use it:
Smoothie: For two large servings: 4 scoops of frozen yogurt (chocolate of course). 2 bannanas. A shot of vanilla flavoring. Two large spoons of peanut butter. If you really like peanut butter, put more. Two full scoops of Protein Whey. About a 1/4-1/3 cup of 1% milk. Blend it all together. Dump Ice into it until it is as thick as you want. It tastes great. You can drink 1/2 the blender full as a serving. Combine this with 1/4 cup of popped corn (use a little canola oil and NO butter. Mildly salt to taste.). You have a great after work out meal.
Sprinkled on frozen yogurt: Scoop out some yogurt in a bowl(vanilla or chocolate, for me). Add 1/2 scoop of Protein Whey. Take a spoon and mix it together. Really mix it in and don't just leave the powder on top of the yogurt. Eat and enjoy. If you don't mix it in well, you'll get Protein powder sticking to the roof of your mouth. You can't blame the powder. It's protein, and protein wants to stick together. So, just mix it well and you'll be good to go.
You can't beat the price per lb for the 5lb tub. I only wish Amazon would put this on the auto-delivery program so that I can get it for 15% lower price.
By the way, ON also makes a vanilla/Oat version with the natural sweetner. We use this to make fruit smoothies.

Description of Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Gold Standard Natural Whey, Natural Chocolate, 5 Pound
Whey Protein Isolates are 90% pure protein by weight. They are the purest and most expensive form of whey protein that exists. That's why they are the first ingredients you read on the 100% Natural Whey Gold Standard label. By using Whey Protein Isolates as the primary source, we're able to pack 24 grams of the purest, muscle-building protein per serving, with a lot less of the fat, cholesterol, lactose, and other stuff that you can do without. What's more, 100% Natural Whey Gold Standard contains no artificial flavors, colors, or sweeteners. There's no question this is the standard by which other whey proteins are measured. | GOLD STANDARD NATURAL 100% WHEY, Natural Chocolate |
