Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The macros are great compared to some other carb-heavy protein powders out there. I am on a marco cycling routine and this is fantastic for my low carb days. This protein is designed to provide quick use of its nutrients.

The flavor is great. Classic chocolate taste - not over powering or chalky. Optimum is an optimum quality brand.

Great tasting, easy mixing protein powder. Easy to mix--dont need to deal with a mixer anymore. Product mixes well and tastes good but is on the sweet side.

Cons

It’s so * during my shake with clumps of powder protein in it. Possible to choke down a big glass of it for breakfast without too much gagging but it but obviates its use in dishes like gravy and mac and cheese.

Don't these companies realize that most people looking at, purchasing, consuming, these supplements are health conscious? Too bad. Rip my toilet.

Pricey but probably worth it to me.

I thought it was overpriced at $62.

Packaging/appearance

I just don't understand why it comes in a huge container and is half full.

I like the flavor and the package is phenomenal.

Competitiveness

The only issue is the increase in price over the last year or so have made the cost per pound higher than other protein powders.

While the flavors could be improved and the price is a bit high, the rapid absorption and added bcaas make it worth the investm... Read More
