Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Gold Double Rich Chocolate 2 Pound Powder (28 servings)


Product Label

  • Whey Protein Isolates
  • Hydrowhey® Peptides
  • 24G Protein
  • 5.5G BCAA's
  • 4G Glutamine & Precursors
  • 149 Servings
  • The True Strength of Whey
  • Whey Protein Isolates are the purest form of whey protein that exists. Hydrowhey® consists of proteins strategically broken down (hydrolyzed) into smaller pieces called peptides for faster utilization by the body. Both are costly to use, but whey protein isolates and Hydrowhey® hydrolyzed whey peptides are the best whey proteins that money can buy. That's why they're the first few ingredients you read on the Gold Standard 100% Whey™ label. By using whey protein isolates and Hydrowhey® as primary ingredients, we're able to pack 24 grams of the fastest, muscle-building protein into every serving with a lot less of the fat, cholesterol, lactose, and other stuff you can do without. There's no doubt that this is the standard by which all other whey proteins are measured.
  • The Advanced Gold Standard Whey Protein Blend:
  • Gold Standard 100% Whey™ is made of an exclusive blend of:
  • Microfiltered Whey Protein Isolates
  • Ion-Exchange Whey Protein Isolates
  • Ultrafiltered Whey Protein Concentrate
  • Hydrowhey® Hydrolyzed Whey Peptides
  • Beyond the Basics:
  • Packed with Whey Protein isolates (WPI)
  • Higher Protein Percentage (24 grams of protein; nearly 79% protein by weight).
  • Includes Hydrowhey®, strategically hydrolyzed, low molecular weight whey peptides to make protein faster acting.
  • Contains Lactase and Aminogen® digestive enzymes to enhance utilization.
  • Whey Protein Microfractions including Alpha-lactalbumin, Glycomacropeptides, Beta-lactoglobulin, immunoglobulin G (lgG), Lactoferrin, Lactoperoxidase, and various growth factors.
  • Over 4 grams of Glutamine & glutamine precursors.
  • More than 5 grams of BCAAs (Leucine, isoleucine, and Valine) in each scoop.

Directions

BLENDER - (EASY: A little more involved but worth the trouble) Add one scoop of ON 100% Whey Gold Standard to a blender filled with 6-8 fl oz of your favorite beverage. Cover and blend for 20-30 seconds. Add 1-2 ice cubes then blend for an additional 30 seconds. Serve. For a delicious smoothie, try adding your favorite fruit, peanut butter, yogurt, shredded coconut, and/or other ingredients (along with the ice cubes) to your blended whey protein shake. SHAKER - (EASIER: Quick & convenient) Fill a shaker bottle with 6-8 fl oz of your favorite beverage. Add one scoop of ON 100% Whey Gold Standard. Cover and shake for 25-30 seconds. Enjoy. If you can't find a shaker bottle at your local gym or health food store, contact us at www.optimumnutrition.com to find out how you can get one. GLASS & SPOON - (EASIEST: Fast & simple) Simply add one scoop of ON 100% Whey Gold

    Finally, I have found a great tasting Protein that still has the great amount of protein that I am looking for! Right when I got home, I opened the box right away and poured a scoop of this with 2% reduced fat milk and shook it up. It probably took 30 seconds to completely mix the powder with the milk; I mixed it using a normal plastic water bottle. I was skeptical when I smelled it, but as I took my first sip, I literally thought I ordered some hot cocoa mix or nesquik. It was that good! I downed the rest of the drink with ease. I am going to use this protein for as long as it is in production. Job well done, Optimum Nutrition.

    Comments about Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Gold Double Rich Chocolate - 2 Pound Powder:

    Best tasting w/milk. W/water it's good too, but you can not over do it w/water, or else you loose the taste of chocolate. Mixes very well. Very affodable. If you're on a diet, and you're counting your macros, this is one of the best proteins to use, since it's low in fats, carbs and calories(even though there's more choices out there with less).

      Comments about Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Gold Double Rich Chocolate - 2 Pound Powder:

      I use this product the morning after my workout during the recovery phase. I used a competitors product up until they changed their formula. This product tasted decent, could be more chocolaty, just use a little less water. Mixes very well in the shaker bottle and at least you don't open the container and it's half empty like other brands.

        ON is the only whey I like to use. It's decently priced, tastes good(extreme milk chocolate and double rich chocolate are what i use. I'm sure there are other great flavors, but if it isnt broke dont fix it), and mixes well. It's pretty low calorie per serving, and low fat. what else can you ask for in a whey? I'm sure there are a bunch of other great options out there, but this has been working for me and I will continue to use it.

          If you mix it with milk it taste pretty good. This is the first time I used whey protien and it seemed to get me past that 6 week burnout that I always have trouble with.I drink a half glass an hour before I work out then the rest after I work out. Haven't had a lot of problems with after workout soreness either. I am sixty years old so any thing helps.

          Tastes very good, mixes easily and is very satisfying but not as rich a chocolate flavor as I would have expected going by the name of the product. Hence the 4 stars instead of 5.

                I use skimmed milk and crushed ice added to it and that is my lunch. It fills me up and I do not get hungry until dinner. Sometimes, for a change, I add a bit of carmel syrup for a change of taste to the shake which I put in the blender.I like the frothy shake from the blender which is so much
                better than just shaking it up. Using the skimmed milk adds only 80 to 90 calories, and it tastes so
                much better.Excellent product and value.

                                  Comments about Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Gold Double Rich Chocolate - 2 Pound Powder:

                                  Finally, I have found a great tasting Protein that still has the great amount of protein that I am looking for! Right when I got home, I opened the box right away and poured a scoop of this with 2% reduced fat milk and shook it up. It probably took 30 seconds to completely mix the powder with the milk; I mixed it using a normal plastic water bottle. I was skeptical when I smelled it, but as I took my first sip, I literally thought I ordered some hot cocoa mix or nesquik. It was that good! I downed the rest of the drink with ease. I am going to use this protein for as long as it is in production. Job well done, Optimum Nutrition.

                                      The best tasting whey protein out there! Even when I bring this to the gym and use it with water oppose to milk it still tastes good.

                                              Chilled, this 100% Whey Gold Double Chocolate protein powder comes close to ice cream flavor, so you and the kids will like it. This is a nice alternative to Vanilla for a change once in a while.
