I want to hear what you guys/girls find to be the best protein for price, quality, taste and mixing. Help save others from wasting their hard earned cash!!

Xtreme Formulations Ultra Peptide Whey meets all those criteria you mentioned. It is also US sourced protein.

For WPI, Allmax Isoflex is pretty solid unfortunately is coming with a pretty hefty price tag as of late.

I REALLY like BSN Syntha-6. Great protein blend and awesome taste. The strawberry flavour is the best tasting protein i have ever tried. Love the stuff.

No better time for Canadians to support Canadian owned manufacturers and retailers.

muscle milk here.

I usuall milk one scoop of it and another of a less expensive WPI. Less calories, cheaper and lasts longer

I really like the Bio-X line. Peanut Butter Swirl is like ice cream. Mixes in cold water in a cheapo shaker cup perfectly.

Favorite everday protein is ON Rocky Road.
Favorite post workout Dymatize Elite Berry mixed with unsweetened 100% grape juice.

Both mix well, taste very good.

Lately price increases drove me to UN Whey Sensation 81 Cafe Italiano. Taste and mixing is pretty good, but I'm spending A LOT of time on the toilet and I've got some nasty gas, the dog doesn't even want to be around me. Will be going back to ON.

Too bad that the Dymatize Whey Protein Isolate (as pictured) above is not 100% isolate. It's a blend.

Ingredients
Ion-Exchange Whey Protein Isolates, Cross Flow Ultra Filtration Whey Protein Concentrate(Providing Di-Peptides, Tri-Peptides, Oligo-Peptides, And Poly-Peptides), Whey Peptides, Cocoa, Natural And Artificial Flavors, Acesulfame Potassium
Contains Milk And Soy.

Prosource NYTROWHEY, which is CFM whey ISOLATE....no concentrate
and ProSource Nytrowhey ULTRA, which has CFM Isolate and Whey Hydrolysate.

Their products are unbelievable for quality/price.

I use Perfect Nutrition, Perfect Whey. Not as well known but the chocolate PB and Vanilla are great and mixes very easily.

Been trying Revolution Nutrition's, High Whey Vanilla flavour. Great tasting, mixes well and is sweetened with stevia.

Both are Made in Canada as well which is a bonus.

DYMATIZE Elite

Other blends wreak havoc on my stomach.

I like the taste of Champion "ultramet" the best, but for price I find "ON" chocolate to be a good choice, considering how it tastes/mixes/price.

12-01-2009, 04:41 PM

Personally I think dymatize is junk. Doesnt mix well and tastes below average. My store has its own brand of Isolate that tastes great and mixes instantly. Im just finishing up repairing the website and should have my banner up soon.

ON actually is not bad, prolly the best of the name brands that i have used. as for having a store, its not mine, but it just means ive tried them all and have a good pallet for comparison. i cant help it if dymatize sucks balls and tastes like sawdust lol

ON Gold Standard. Mixes easily in shacker cup, tastes ok too.

14-01-2009, 02:51 PM

gave me the worst upset stomach... BMF Hardcore that is... and a local store pushed it based on price, i think they just make a lot of money on it.

Haven't heard anything about ALLMAX, as far as I know they do very well...

Question for all you ON fans. Being that 5 LB has gone up to approx $65.00 are you still buying it?

Nope. Allmax AllWhey..all the way. Same protein blend as ON 100% and tastes 10 times better.

dymatize isolate... i heard allmax may be gone by the end of the year. they have a good cheap brand that's good to get some protein when you ate a nice plate of spaghetti and meatballs or some fettucine. man i'm starving...

BEEP wrong answer bud. Its not happening its just a shitty rumor started by competition brands. cut throat industry we have here!

and i like almost every brand by dymatize protein. mixes like shit and tastes ****ing awful!

Where I shop for supps, $120.00 for 10lbs ON. This time last yr, $100.00 for same amount. After I run out of the ON I have on hand, may try Allmax AllWhey.
Had a sample of vanilla, wasn't too bad.

Why that which has 2g fat, 25g prot, 4g carbs for $50 when

http://www.pumphousenutrition.ca/Protein-Blends-5LB/ALLMAX-Allwhey-5-LB.html

Dymatize, elite whey has 1.5g fat, 24g prot, 2g carbs for $53 (but 4 extra servings per tub)

Perfect whey seems good too:

ON 100 Whey, the only complaint i have with it is vanilla icecream taste bad with water but its all good they have about 30 flavours.

NACanada

Here's a little product breakdown I did up for whey blends. All prices are based on avg retail prices. Many other factors come into play such as taste, perceived quality, blend ratio's etc...but kind of interesting.

Note: This is just a draft. There may be some math errors and label info will have to be double checked.

Looks great man; thanks for the chart. One thing that you could include is the grams per serving as it's pretty important.

lol my bad, that isn't what I meant. I meant carbs per serving. I know that some of them have something like 4g which is what I try to stay away from.

Since this is a review thread, for brand name I usually use ON...TrueProtein and Vitalus have good quality protein...
