What's the difference between this (gold standard) and myprotein whey or isolate ?
I'm currently taking myprotein isolate and some people around me swear the gold standard is a lot better but I haven't found any real study or proof that there's any real difference expect for taste.
Other urls found in this thread:
I've bought both, and looked at the nutrition info on both. Macros and calories are virtually identical.
Biggest difference is that MyProtein frequently gets massive sales and discounts, whereas Optimum only goes on sale during a BOGO 50% promo at GNC.
Optimum also has better flavors, whereas most MyProtein flavors are ass.
Why is it so hard to find a protein powder without soy?
Because soy lecithin is what allows whey to dissolved in water
What's the problem with soy ?
So no real difference apart from personal taste ? I think myprotein tastes are fine you just have to find the ones you like
What flavors have you tasted?
I'm still waiting for at least 50% off sale before buying.
I was thinking of getting Chocolate Nut and Strawberry Creme.
Natural vanilla (okay-bad) / chocolate (okay-good), cookie cream (good but can't get that shit down anymore) and chocolate mint (okay-good). Fat fuck so usually took em with water but I tried and it's pretty good with milk.
Pretty much. The chocolate flavors from Optimum are really good without being too artificial sweet, whereas MyProtein has that problem on almost all their flavors except for Chocolate Brownie and Chocolate Mint.
>MP flavors are ass
Just buy unflavored and add your own, morons. I always buy Unflavored and have no issues with adding my own. You fools must be lazy.
