Dymatize Iso-100 Gourmet Vanilla - 5 LBS (Packaging May Vary)

Product Information

This protein mixes seamlessly with water, but when we mixed the Chocolate flavor with water it was very thin and tasted sort of like chocolate water. We’d suggest mixing it with milk to add some richness to the texture (our editors have forbidden us from using the term “mouthfeel”). Whey protein: The most popular protein on the market, whey is a complete protein, meaning that all nine amino acids necessary for protein synthesis are present. The three branched-chain amino acids—leucine, isoleucine, and valine—are found in high concentrations in whey protein. Whey protein is a fast-absorbing protein and can be digested in as little as 20 minutes for whey protein hydrolysates. This makes it ideal for post-workout recovery. When it comes to delicious proteins, Onnit Whey Isolate is tough to beat. With two tasty flavors and a creamy texture even when mixed with water, it’s easier than ever to ensure you’re hitting your protein goals for the day. Even if the protein content is lower than some other shakes, it’s worth that trade-off because you’ll actually look forward to drinking it. Best Whey Isolate for Building Muscle

Everyone looking for a lean and powerful physique knows about the challenge of supporting the promotion of muscle protein synthesis and assuring the right caloric intake for your physique goals. This requires highest product quality, providing the right quantity of protein with as little surplus calories as possible. The included electrolytes may be very helpful for ensuring you have the needed micronutrients to crush subsequent workouts. In both flavors, one scoop provides 120 calories, 25 grams of protein, 2 grams of carbs (1 gram of sugar and no fiber), and 0.5 grams of fat. That results in a supplement that’s 4.8 calories per gram of protein. (The best score you can get there is 4 calories per gram of protein, which is possible if a protein has zero carbs and zero fat.)

Otherwise it’s worth noting that Iso 100 has under half a gram of lactose per serving, so it probably won’t cause issues for most people who are sensitive to lactose. It also has soy and the artificial sweetener sucralose, which some people might find problematic though we should emphasize that soy lecithin definitely won’t negatively affect your testosterone levels. Dymatize ISO 100 Protein Isolate is made with pre-hydrolyzed protein sources to ensure fast digestion and absorption. One look at the facts panel will tell you that Dymatize ISO 100 Protein has a lot to offer:

We also really like that Transparent Labs uses grass-fed protein, which has been shown to have less cholesterol and more healthy omega fatty acids. Plus, it’s generally considered a more humane way of raising dairy cows. Sadly, this doesn’t have any digestive enzymes or probiotics, which might have been helpful if you have digestive issues with protein. This powder is also on the more expensive side, though we think the cost is worth it.

I created new smoothie concoctions to fight off afternoon hunger pangs. Multiple days I grabbed the vanilla and dumped in whatever aging bag of spinach sat in the crisper or slightly freezer-burned mixed berries I had on hand. Try as I might, I couldn’t taste the spinach even though I added so much the smoothie was a brilliant green hue. Protein powders can come from animal or plant sources, but both types contain at least one of the following three categories of protein—and often, all three.There’s a lot of protein powder on the market these days, which means there are also a lot of pundits claiming they make the best one out there. We know that the best product will vary from person to person, so we considered factors like macros, digestibility, flavor, and more during our testing to create a comprehensive list that appeals to a wide range of consumers looking to add more protein to their diet.
