 Good proteinOct 03, 2010
By J. Pinzon
After years using nutritional supplements, I have come to the conclussion that thee less the better. There is currently a lot of marketing to support a multimillion dollar market. The goal is to make people believe that you need all kind of stuffs in order to succeed with your fitness/bodybuilding goals. That is totally wrong! Now I realize that there is nothing more important than this 3 elements:
-food (diet)
-training/exercise program
-rest (sleep!)
Each one is as important as the other.
If at all needed, what I would recommend is:
-1 multivitamin supplement (centrum or similar 1 tablet a day is fine. Please do not go crazy swallowing 10-12 pills a day of those fancy MV, hurting your stomach, pocket and soul)
-fish oil (for the potential CV benefits)
-protein.
this product helps to provide the required protein in case your diet can not provide them. It is not an absolute necessity but handy for those that do not have time to cook 5 meals a day or pay for them in a restaurant. ON is a good brand and their products are like generic meds: priced right, deliver what promised.
Taste is good, mix well even in a shaker (specially with water ---before training for faster absorption---you do not want to go bloated to the gym). I prefer this mix of protein over pure whey protein. I just think is more "natural" for your body.
Just make sure you are not overtraining (common mistake), have enough rest/sleep and eat well. Do not go for fancy pre, post work out, pre sleep, post sleep, intra work out, pre/intra/post defecation supplements(do you get the idea). You would just be wasting your money. You should know what that guy in the magazine really uses (steroids/hormones).
I hope this opinion would help you make a better decision.

Solid, reliable proteinMay 22, 2009
By Pulse
As most people that use protein powders, I've tried many. This is a good, solid one that provides above average levels to ratio than most (24g per scoop). Bloating doesn't seem to be an issue and i'm into my 3rd 6lb container at this point. Nor do I have any lactose reactions as I have with some (lactose intolerant). The flavor is good (I've only had the chocolate so far) but there are better. Of course I'm not taking this stuff for the enjoyment or taste, if that's what you're looking for than there are plenty of tastier ones out there but you won't get the same results this provides (at least from what I've found for myself so far). I'm one of those people that can gain weight (a.k.a get fat) very easily and I haven't seen any issues with that in using this product. I'm getting a lean gain vs. heavy bulk gain as others have done to me in the past. Overall it's a good, quality protein at a very reasonable cost...highly recommended for people seriously looking to get results.

 HAVE TRIED A LOT OF DIFFERENT PROTEINS AND LOVE THISJun 30, 2011
By Isaac Saboohi
"ZubuMan"
This a great protein and works really well for me.
I have tried 5-6 different products and find that this suits me the best.
PROS:
- mixes easily
- the different proteins breakdown at different rates, so it prevents you from being hungry after an hour(I have this for breakfast and feel a difference between this and the regular proteins (whey, soy, egg, and other)
- Tastes great
Wish it was kosher!
Helps with next day and following day sorenessApr 30, 2012
By Edward Chen
"ed"
Great blend of proteins. not your cup of tea if you dont like fake sugars. Though fake sugars arent my favorite thing i dont mind drinking things with it. However it upsets the flavor of this chocolate mix quite a bit. It definetly does not taste great.
If you are going for a post-workout or before you sleep protein mix, I would suggest muscle milk. Much better tasting and a nice blend of slow-metabolizing proteins.
 Disgustingly Sweet!Apr 17, 2012
By Ernest D. Adams III
I love sugar. I'd eat it all day long given the chance. However the amount of sucralose (800x sweeter than sugar) they dumped in the product is making even me do a double-take. I have to double the amount of liquid (I use milk) and drop in a tablespoon of cocoa powder just to make it tolerable. I liked that it was a good balance of various proteins, but I can't handle all the sucralose. I'll have to keep shopping for a well balanced protein shake.
