October 02, 2008 Reviewer: yusuf can in Turkey |
| This is the most selling, best protein powder out there.
Having used all of the flavors
highly recommend: banana cream, caramel toffe fudge (little bit aftertaste though but my favorite), double rich chocolate, extreme milk choc., cookies n cream
for vanilla lovers vanilla ice cream and french vanilla are both amazing
strawberry tastes weak, orange cream is not good.
rocky road is disgusting. I could not still understand who would want that bitter taste. |

February 18, 2012 Reviewer: Napoleon in Oklahoma |
| This is no doubt one of the best Proteins around - and I can say that, I've been around too and experimented with quite a few things online that almost killed me LOL . Now, the cost is way over my head, but the results are mind blowing that it's worth every penny they're asking for so, I can't complain about the price because they know what they got. What you put in (workout!) is what you get out, so if you're working real hard ... you will .... look .... like ... a professional bodybuilder when feeding your muscle the right proteins it needs. 100% Whey is what makes the ladies go "wow he's so BIG and STRONG" and the fellows will say, "you bet not mess with him, he's huge!" Real talk. |

| I have only used the Double Rich Chocolate but I love it. After an aerobic workout, I put a rounded scoop into 8 ounces of decaf coffee (room temperature, not hot)in a shaker cup, shake 30 times and it is a really good chocolate-flavored coffee drink. I have also put the same in a blender with ice cubes and an ounce of Philly cream cheese to make a smoothie.....yummy. It has helped build muscle on my 65+ years old body. The heaviest weights I use are 5 pounders and mostly 3 pounders. |

| Best price for protein powder!
Mixes well, tastes excellent and smooth, very little clumps with a shaker.
With 22 Amino Acids included, how can you go wrong? I have noticed gains from this and this is my 2nd purchase. |

April 27, 2012 Reviewer: Robin in Florida |
| I've been buying whey protein for about a year, mostly buying it from a different online retailer. Their prices went up by $4.00 a container (17 shakes)and their shipping was pretty high, too. Someone online told me about netrition, and they have me as a loyal customer. I now purchase Optimum Nutrition Whey Protein, which comes in a ton of flavors (all good so far) and cost about $4.00 more for 34 shakes than the other place did for 17. When I go out of town, I measure out how many scoops I'll need and put it and the scoop into a zip-lock baggie. Good products, $4.95 shipping anywhere, fast delivery. What more could you ask for? Love it! |

| I have used many proteins and this one by far blows me away! You can waste your time and money trying but I'm telling you right here and now- YOU WILL NOT FIND BETTER THAN O.N. PROTEIN! Sorry to yell lol Use the Gold Standard during the day and the NitroCore 24 before bed. Or the Casein protein but I enjoy the advantages of time released protein in stages (NitroCore 24). It may or may not be pricey for you but with a proper diet you can stretch this stuff out. Well worth every dam* penny! KEEP IT COMING OPTIMUM NUTRITION!! |

July 29, 2011 Reviewer: Marlene in Arizona |
| After bariatric lap-band surgery I was required to use whey protein for nutrition. The usual flavors of vanilla, chocolate and strawberry quickly got old. That's when I found Ultimate Nutrition whey protein powder. The variety of flavors and sizes is wonderful. The powder mixes easily with water, water and ice, with fruit, or with yogurt to make a "pudding". I have told everyone I know about your product and the wonderful variety. I request a catalog with every order and pass them out to friends. Thank you for this terrific product! |

| Seemingly the best value of quality protein and decent taste for the money. Did I mention the taste was good? Consistency ends up smooth with just a little more sticking to the sides of the shaker than would be perfect. My new go-to protein source. |

August 13, 2010 Reviewer: Thomas in New York |
| I've been using ON's whey protein powders since I was 14. I've always been a fan of their flavors and the quality of their products. Double rich chocolate has been, hands down, the best for me. Mixes well in water or milk, and when blended, tastes akin to a chocolate shake. I've tried various other powders, and they're typically chalky or poor tasting, but ON has always held the bar high, and I've stuck with it for over a decade now. |

August 09, 2010 Reviewer: Kenneth in New York |
| Extreme Milk Chocolate tastes like Nestle Quick to me... a little bit like Malted Milk Balls too. I LOVE IT. I mix it in a shaker cup using mostly water and ice, but I add a splash of half & half too, and some ground flax meal for fiber. This is my reward when I get home from the gym. Does Optimum Nutrition make a better flavor than this? I don't know... I don't care! |

| I love this protein! I had gastric bypass surgery a little over a year ago, and could not find a protein I like. I bought the sampler pack and was so pleased. My favorite is the chocolate malt! It tastes like a thin version of a restaurant favorite when I mix it with 1 cup low cal vanilla soy milk. I have this every day and then have another flavor too. |

| This is a great protein powder from Optimum Nutrition. The strawberry is so good that even my wife likes to drink it. Mixes completely in a shaker cup with no clumps or unmixed powder left behind. Doesn't leave me feeling full or bloated. I mix with milk and, sometimes, the Optimum Nutrition creatine. Good results for a 46 yr old hard gainer. |

| I have tried many flavors of Optimum Nutrition's Whey Gold Standard Protein, and while all of them are drinkable and not disgusting, my favorite would have to be the Rocky Road, followed by Extreme Milk Chocolate. I like the combination of relatively low calories with a decent amount of protein for after kickboxing workouts and the whey is quickly absorbed to help in muscle repair. |

| Best Bang for your Buck. Not that expensive and doesn't carry all the fat and calories that some have. I used to use muscle milk but it just came with too many calories. It tasted great but not worth it. ON protein doesn't taste as good as muscle milk but its close enough and it is much better for you. |

| I have been buying ON protein for quite a number of years for the simple reason that it is great. I have tried other brands, but nothing comes close. It tastes great, mixes easily and is the best buy for the money. When you need to get your protein level very high (1.5-2 grams per pound of body weight) it's easy to add one or two of these shakes to your diet. Don't waste your time or money on any other brand. I usually buy the chocolate, but the vanilla and strawberry are also very good. |

| I have been using ON protein in chocolate and vanilla flavors for a couple years now with great results. I recently bought the mocha cappacino flavor and it tastes absolutely amazing, especially if you are in a hurry in the morning and don't have time for coffee. I love ON, great results and great products for the price, best protein on the market in my opinion. |

| I love ON's 100% Whey Gold Standard Protein! It tastes great and mixes up well! I was even able to get my finicky wife hooked on it. I liked it so much that I just ordered Neopolitan; 2.07 lbs of Chocolate, 2.07 lbs of Strawberry and 2.07 lbs of Vanilla. All that and Netrition has by far the best price...let's just say that Netrition was 33% cheaper than that national chain that goes by 3 letters. |

Its a nice source of protien. They have gotten leaner and stronger and doesn't have all that harmful hormones in it. My daughters are 19,16,13 and myself. They all play sports and have increased strength & speed in fastpitch softball. Run faster and hit further. got to love it.... |

| I first got the variety pack to see which flavors I liked most. I can say none of them were bad, yes some were better than others and some I would never consider buying but they were all tolerable to drink. I have experienced some clumping with this protein that's why I'm giving it a four. The nutrition facts were what sold me on this product. 24g Protein, 110 cals, 1g sugar, and 30mg of cholesterol beating out my old protein in every category. My favorite flavors were tropical punch , strawberry, double rich chocolate and cookies and cream. I would recommend this product to a friend and would definitely buy again. |

I do get a little bloat when I drink it. But for the price its really good. And it is one of the best tasting on the market. So yes, it's good. and I do recommend it. |

| A good bargain for the price, but definitely not the best protein mix you will find at Netrition.Com. There isn't much taste to the Tropical Punch flavor, no matter what the ratio of powder to water. Bland is about the best way that I can describe it. It doesn't leave a bad aftertaste though, and tastes more like flavored water than anything else. This definitely does not dissolve in water all that easily. It kept clumping when I tried mixing it with a fork. Not as bad as most of the chocolate flavored mixes you will find, but still noticeable. You'll probably want to use a shaker bottle for this mix instead of using a spoon. There are some other mixes you can get here that certainly aren't as cheap, but are better tasting and have a better nutritional makeup. You might want to also look at Syntrax Nectar, if you don't mind spending the extra money. Unlike this product, the Nectar flavors that I tried taste MUCH better, have NO sugars, NO carbohydrates, NO fat and 90% less cholesterol. On top of that, for only 1g less protein, there are 30 less calories per serving. You get what you pay for. This is a decent product, but I would rather spend the extra money on better flavor, less cholesterol and (important to me, being diabetic) no sugar. |

| I've just experienced my first dose of the "root beer float" flavor, and it's yucky! I don't recommend it. It
does mix well, taste is smooth, not chalky, I find with
all the protein powders I've used that if I sit them in
the fridge for 10-15 min. all lumps dissolve. With so
many good reviews I was expecting a better tasting product, hopefully it's just this flavor that's lacking. |
