Optimum Nutrition is the whey to go for Protein
Flavor Name: Turbo Chocolate Size: 3.6 Pound (Pack of 1)
Optimum Nutrition is not new to the scene and they certainly produce great-value products, like their Gold Standard protein Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Gold Standard, Double Rich Chocolate, 5 Pound and multivitamins Optimum Nutrition Opti-Men Multivitamins, 180-Count However, Hydro Whey is expensive and a lesser value, but why is it worth it? First off, for all the hard gainers like myself out there, the increased content of BCAA's is important for protein anabolism. You can only create as much as the weakest link and without a single amino acid or fuel to create the essential ones, you are falling short. Secondly, this stuff mixes like a champ! We've all been there with the proteins that fail to mix well, leaving clumps to swallow and dry powder to lick out of our cups and shaker bottles. I highly recommend a shaker bottle Blender Bottle W/Wire Ball-Large 28 Oz. Colors Vary for all mixing purposes, for its convenience as well as efficiency. However, this is the ONLY protein I've ever been able to mix in a cup when a mixer/blender was not available and there are no clumps at all. It does produce a more frothy, lighter shake than does Gold Standard or even Platinum Hydrobuilder, making it easier to consume and break down. The taste is much smoother than its thicker Gold Standard counterpart. It will curb your appetite slightly (characteristic of all proteins), but not as bad as other protein shakes do which can be important when you need to consume that post-workout meal. Now, as to whether "hydrolyzed" whey is better than the regular stuff, that's for you to decide. It has worked for me, and I'm not going back to Gold Standard anytime soon for all the reasons above, but remember scientific 'philosophies' or lab work does not all translate to the same benefits in real-life applications like the human body (where everyone reacts differently). Hydro-Whey has been a winner for me, and I've tried many, many proteins before: Muscletech, BSN, Optimum, etc. Please do your research as different proteins have different applications and this stuff is reserved for primarily upon waking and immediately post-workout. If you're looking for meal replacement or anabolic longevity, look elsewhere. Hydro-whey provides instant fuel when your body needs it most, and to maximize muscle gains, I'm willing to pay a premium after working hard in the gym day in, day out. ... show more

Best protein but stop raising the price
Flavor Name: Turbo Chocolate Size: 3.6 Pound (Pack of 1)
This is the best protein I have ever tried and I’ve been using it for over a decade now. It tastes great, mixes well, and easy on the stomach. My only complaint is that the price has doubled since I’ve started using this product

tastes great, and is easy on the stomach
Flavor Name: Turbo Chocolate Size: 2 Pound (Pack of 1)
Short review: This products works well, tastes great, and is easy on the stomach. I would recommend it. Longer review: I'll start off by briefly informing you that I use this product specifically to supplement my protein intake after a workout. Previously, I used Optimum Nutrition's Gold Standard Whey for the past ~2 years. Before that, I've used a few others and concluded that ON seems to deliver the best overall protein. That being said, I tried ON's Hydrowhey because hydrolyzed whey is absorbed very quickly after consumption. Taste (Turbo Chocolate): 9/10 Vanilla soymilk is my preferred base liquid, and this flavor tastes great with it. ...Probably even better than their Gold Standard Double Rich Chocolate flavor. Mixability: 8/10 I've used the same blender bottle for about two years as well, and this Hydrowhey seemed to clump up slightly more than their Gold Standard and stick to the lid of the bottle. Not a huge deal, but worth noting. Ingredients: 9.5/10 Lots of protein and not a whole lot of other garbage that a lot of commercial proteins contain. People will complain about artificial ingredients in their protein, but I'm not from that camp. Personally, I'd be upset if they started dumping sugar into it. It's also noteworthy that this protein powder (like other ON protein powders) has BCAAs, which is convenient, so that I don't have to order another product or even risk forgetting to take it. Digestability: 8/10 I include this because there's a common talking point about hydro whey being tough on your stomach. For this reason, I procrastinated in trying this, but I'm glad that I did. Personally, this maybe had an effect on my stomach about 5% of the time (maybe 2 or 3 days out of the first month that I used it). All in all, I'd recommend ON's hydrowhey. I only tried their Turbo Chocolate flavor, and it's definitely a winner. It's a little pricey, but the quality of ingredients and taste make it worth it. I paid full price for my whey and my opinions are my own. If you found this review to be helpful in any way, feel free to tap the "Yes" button to indicate this was helpful to you.

One of the best out there
Flavor Name: Turbo Chocolate Size: 3.6 Pound (Pack of 1)
General: Extremely high quality protein. The price is absolutely justified. Know that most other protein powders out there are not made equal. They're mostly below this one in quality. A full scoop mixes very well with 6-8 ounces of water in my shaker bottle. Also mixes well with milk, not as good as water, but definitely still good. Try it in a blender for smoothest results! Flavors (that I have tried): Turbo Chocolate (TC) - great all around. Tastes just fine. To me, it's not something that tastes so good that I couldn't wait to drink it, but it does not taste bad to any extent. It's kind of like water to me, I need it, I drink it, and done. Awesome. I give it an 8.5/10 on taste. Next, it mixes so well, sometimes the consistency of the shake was barely distinguishable from water. It's also very versatile! If you plan on adding multiple ingredients to your shake, chances are that TC will pair well. If you're trying the product out for the first time, get this one. Cookies and Cream Overdrive (CCO) - Ugh. No, just no. Don't get it. Protein quality is obviously the same, but just....no. It's especially bad as the first thing in the morning. I give it a 4.5/10. After having TC flavor, I decided to be a bit more adventurous. Got this one in the hopes that it would taste similar to Muscle Milk's cookies and cream flavor and boy did it tank. Optimum Nutrition dropped the ball on CCO. Not only does it not taste good, but it doesn't mix as well as TC does. Multiple times I've had some of the unmixed but wet powder lining the bottom edges of my shaker bottle. Had to dig it out with a spoon. Blasted waste. After my first serving, I dreaded that I had to wait at least a month to finish the stuff and go back to something better. I eventually got used to the taste, but please don't subject yourself to that kind of torture. Think I may just stick to Turbo Chocolate! ... show more

Love it so far

Great stuff. But who really knows.🤔 Watching a lot of content how these companies are scamming people. It mixes great. And I don't know what people are tripping about the sweetness. It's perfect. U want to try a super sweet protein powder, try Jym. Whoa! So sweet I tossed the rest of my bag out!

Easy on Stomach, a bit to Sweet
Flavor Name: Turbo Chocolate Size: 3.6 Pound (Pack of 1)
See Update on Bottom :--- I have had problems with other whey powders making me feel sick, I did want a protein powder that would metabolize fast for better recovery after weight lifting. I gave this a try hoping it would not make me feel sick like other whey powders have. This does not bother my stomach at all I feel good after drinking it. YAHOO!! Taste is a problem, I bought chocolate and it is way too sweet, I definitely did not enjoy drinking this. I think mixing it with a bitter agent might help and since I work out in the morning i will use black coffee as the liquid base rather than just water. I am hoping this will make the taste more pleasant. I would have given this 5 stars if the taste was better, Texture was fine and it mixed easily. I am not lactose intolerant, so I am not sure why other whey powders have bothered me but I am glad this one does not Update -- This product has helped me recover from hard weight lifting workouts so i can be ready to workout again. I am 57 and am pushing myself to failure three days a week on my workouts. I had been struggling and onny able to get two hard workouts done but with this and the Creatine powder from the same brand I am back to three full body workout a week. Taste had been a problem and after experimenting with several ways to make this I found a "whey," put intended, to make this taste very good. Silk makes a Almond Cashew Protein Milk that includes pea protein in two option, original with 3 grams of carbs and a newer sweeter one with 10 grams of carbs. I am mixing 14 ounces of the lower carb version with a level scoop of Hydrowhey and add two Ice cubes to make it colder in an insulated metal shaker bottle. The result is a very good tasting Chocolate milk shake. The final product ends up with 47 Grams of protein and 368 Calories with only 7 Grams of Carbs. If this fits in your dietary goals it is a great and delicious protein shake. All with no nausea!!! whoo hoo! ... show more

A quality product from O.N.
Flavor Name: Turbo Chocolate Size: 3.6 Pound (Pack of 1)
I’ve been very happy with this powder and I’ve tried a lot over the years. I always use reduced fat milk when preparing this product so I don’t know how well it works with water. Flavor: has a malt-like chocolate flavor that seems like it’s going to have a nasty aftertaste but thankfully doesn’t. It doesn’t have that delicious MuscleMilk level of flavor but it’s also a lot more healthy. Overall it’s a good, easy-to-drink chocolate flavor that isn’t very sweet. Texture: mixes easily but a spoon will leave a few sticky clumps floating around. To be honest it mixes well enough that I’m willing to deal with the minor clumping to avoid having to clean a blender or shaker bottle. Not too thick which is a good thing. Performance: obviously an opinion, but I feel a bit less sore the next day than I otherwise would’ve been had I not drank this after my workout. It works. Price: it’s more expensive than normal whey powder but the increased cost is expected with hydrolyzed whey as it’s a premium product. There are more and less expensive products on the market but I think you will have to spend significantly more to get a marginally better quality product so it’s priced just right IMO. Besides this isn’t intended to be your all-purpose whey powder anyway. I will be purchasing another container when mine runs out. ... show more

Best results hands down
Flavor Name: Turbo Chocolate Size: 3.6 Pound (Pack of 1)
As an avid lifter, I have been on different types of protein shakes before and all of which usually had that same protein taste regardless of how much flavoring was in it. I also noticed myself getting tired of having those over-flavored shakes and also the bloated feeling that came with them as well. This is hands down the best protein I have ever been on period. If used daily after a workout like most people do you will definitely see gains in your muscle mass and physique. Obviously, dieting is hugely important when it comes to weight lifting and looking good but if you want to put on some lean muscle without dreading having to drink a protein that will mess with your stomach or taste buds this is the one. In a matter of 6 months working out 6 days a week eating clean, cutting, and pushing my thresholds I was able to turn 20 pounds of fat into 20 pounds of muscle. I have done this several times now as iv been on this protein for over 3 years and counting. If you are taking your workouts seriously and constantly pushing yourself your body will reward you for buying this protein. Also, I never get bloated after an entire shaker cup with two scoops and milk and that's amazing to me. The only con I have is that the price used to be a lot more affordable when i first started using it but honestly its worth the money so I don't even bother switching ... show more
