Solid Recovery Agent,
The Optimum brand has a decent price, is all natural, and the taste is good when measured correctly. Too much is too sweet and too little is too bland if you’re adding simply to water. It mixes very smoothly in straight water/milk or as a shake additive and it provides my muscles with the fuel they need post workouts. Their chocolate flavor is pretty good as well if you’re not pleased with the vanilla. I usually take to shakes a day, one about an hour before working out – I also add frozen berries and plain yogurt for energy with water and 4 grams of L-Arginine powder for muscle gains, growth etc –L Arginine (1 Kg) (2.2 Lbs) Bulk Powder. Out of all the amino acids, L-Arginine is my favorite. It actually pumps more blood into the muscles during workouts so muscle pumps are bigger and more importantly work outs are more intense. Glutamine is also an essential one to building muscle and this is another reason I like Optimum, they include the glutamine in the protein. When taking into account taste, quality, and price optimum gold protein is some of the best out there.

Incorrect label on amazon,
Sold as Gold Standard Natural, arrived as regular Gold Standard. The difference is that the Gold Standard Natural uses only natural ingredients. The regular contains artificial ingredients and preservatives.

David Harris “some of this some of that”
Very impressed!,
After spending hours comparing nutritional information labels on a dozen diffrent brands of powders, I decided on this one for obvious reasons. It replaces alot of ingredients with natural ones, and costs only about 46 cents per serving, yet has an impressive 24 grams of protein per serving. That’s really the bottom line why you should choose this product.
I got the chocolate. Threw it in a glass of water, and was VERY surprised that after stirring for about 30 seconds with just a spoon, it had almost completely disolved. You dont even need a shaker for this. As far as the taste well, theres no sweetener, and almost no sugar or fat. So of course it doesnt taste like a freakin milkshake. It’s really good for you. Im sure in milk (which adds fat and sugar) it will taste great but i wont be doing that personally.
I wrote this review half a year ago, and the price has gone way up since then. It is still a great product, but not the huge value it was back when i got it $10 cheaper.
