Tasted good but contains Sucralose (artificial sweetner) by Ruben Miranda (Brooklyn, NY)  4 Stars
November 25, 2009
Why use a controversial sweetener like Sucralose which has been linked
to many side effects including cancer when there are alternative sweeteners like Erythritol
which is natural and has much less serious side effects?
I received a 5 pound tub of the banana cream whey protein product from ON today.
I immediately poured a scoop into 8 ounces of water and mixed it for 20 seconds.
There were a few small clumps of powder but not too bad.
The flavor was okay but I noticed the aftertaste of an artificial sweetener which I hate.
I had checked their website and read that NATURAL "100% WHEY GOLD STANDARD" has no sweetners.
I accidentally ordered 100% WHEY GOLD STANDARD which has Sucralose.
The names are very similar and it is easy to make a mistake.
With the large number of people that do not like artificial sweeteners ON should make it a little
easier to tell the difference.
I'll try a few more servings of the product but I may have to order the Natural.
Good Luck.

GREAT! Subscribe and get it for 35 dollars a month! by Arthur E. Rodriguez  5 Stars
November 22, 2009
I ordered this 2lb jar to see if I liked the taste enough to use Amazon's subscription service for the 5lb product. In a little over a week of changing my dietary habits to multiple small meals (5-6, at least two or more are just a protein shake) spread out every 3 hours, while exercising daily, I have noticed myself being more energetic, less fatigued in the mornings and a loss of two pounds. Not bad for a weeks work. The best thing is, is that I'm not hungry most of the day. Keeping your meals spread out to a 3hr max keeps your metabolism working continuously and keeps you feeling satisfied all day.
But about the product, Its mixability is superb, its taste is subtle enough to mix with water or milk without it being too sweet. In water it taste like Mexican Horchata, in Vanilla soy milk it taste like a true vanilla shake. Whey contains the best protein for your body, meaning your body absorbs it and utilizes it more so than other types of protein (ie. soy).
For weight loss and muscle gain, this is a no brainer since about a third of your daily calories should come from protein.

O.N. Gold Standard Whey Protein by pointguardpower 4 Stars
November 22, 2009
I bought the Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard 100% Whey, Double Rich Chocolate, 5.15-Pound Tub and found the value of this product very good compared to many other retailers. I used this product for about a month (3x daily), using it to supplement my regular diet and workouts throughout the week. I have gained 3-4 Ibs. in that time period. I was expecting better results with this product. Here is my disclaimer however, I weight trained (6x/week) during the entire course of taking this product but did not incorporate any cardio workouts to supplement my weight training. This may have had an impact on weight gained (cardio work is an important aspect of weight training due to the loss of fat that occurs from it). I was hoping to add more healthy weight than just 3-4 Ibs. But please take into consideration your body type, everyone is unique and each person must evaluate his/her make-up when it comes to weight training, cardio work, and weight gain/loss.

Sometimes slower is better - especially when it comes to the rate of protein digestion. While rapid protein absorption is desirable immediately before or after exercise, delayed release is probably more beneficial throughout the remainder of the day.
Casein proteins are pH sensitive and gel in the acidic environment of the stomach. As a result, it can take more than twice as long for caseins to be broken-down into their amino acid subcomponents than whey and other proteins. Because of...
