BSN Syntha-6 Whey Protein Powder, Cold Stone Creamery- Birthday Cake Remix Flavor, Micellar Casein, Milk Protein Isolate Powder, 25 Servings

Please feel free to read the hundreds of other reviews on this product, as they will provide you with invaluable information. However, it good to note that this product comes with Branched-chain amino acids, Glutamine peptides, is Aspartame free and stacks with a bunch of supplements. For the record however, I am going to voice my opinion solely on flavor in contrast to MYOFUSION Vanilla flavor. To be fair, I got MYOFUSION's vanilla flavor because I read the rather decrepit reviews of the other flavors. Being a college student and investing in 5 lb tubs every month means you better LOVE the flavor that you end up picking (however to GNC's credit, they do offer a 30 day trial and return period). In all honesty, the vanilla flavor was pretty decent. MYOFUSION lacks the aforementioned BCAA's, and from what I recall, each scoop is about 36g/ serving. Its good and flavor wise beat out GNC's generic whey protein, or even Warrior whey.So I read up reviews about BSN Syntha 6 and was shocked about how many positive reviews it got; specifically the chocolate version. Needless to say once I ran out of MYOFUSION, I quickly ordered Syntha-6. I received the item today, and couldn't wait to try it out (even though today is an 'off' day for me). Based solely on flavor and taste alone, I CANNOT stress how amazing it is with just a dash of 1% skim milk (less than half a cup). I mean it truly tastes like Chocolate milk. There is a creamy like texture, but not too thick (also depends on how much fluids you add obviously). Each heaping scoop is a mighty 44g (22g protein, 15g carbs, 2g sat fat, 2g sugars) and equates to 200 calories per! So be careful and make sure all your nutrient intake numbers play well with your goals; please read other reviews as well, and be sure to look at the product snapshot to get a gauge of the nutrients packed into this monster.I look forward to trying BSN for this whole month and seeing for any positive results when it comes to weight training. This thing is packed to the brim with nutrition and flavor; I cannot see why anyone would ignore this if you have a remote and passing interest in physical activity. For roughly $42, I can't imagine something that meets my nutrient requirements, balances cost, and doesn't skimp on the taste. AMAZING!p.s. This and the Blenderball (for mixing) are a marriage made in heaven!

This is my new favorite protein! The taste is phenomenal tastes like strawberry milk. It mixes very well (I use whole milk, but could use anything!). It has a variety of protein forms which means all essential amino acids, and slow burning protein forms. You get a great amount of product for the price unlike some other brands that price gauge the heck out of you. I’m a Syntha customer for life! 💪🏼

Fine taste and plenty of protein powder . Easy to blend with milk or water . And my stomach handles it well .

I’ve tried many protein powders over the years, and BSN SYNTHA-6 Whey Protein Powder in Vanilla Milk is hands down one of the best. The taste is outstanding—smooth, creamy, and genuinely enjoyable, which is a rare find in protein supplements. It mixes easily with water, milk, or in a smoothie without any clumps, making it super convenient.What I really appreciate is the blend of both fast- and slow-digesting proteins. This combination helps keep me fueled throughout the day, whether I’m using it as a post-workout shake or a meal replacement. I’ve noticed a significant improvement in my recovery and muscle maintenance since I started using it.Overall, BSN SYNTHA-6 delivers on both taste and effectiveness. If you’re looking for a high-quality protein powder that’s as enjoyable to drink as it is beneficial, this is definitely worth trying!

I have been weightlifting for a year now, but only recently have I started to get serious. I have lost 40 lbs, but part of my weight-training goal is to gain strength and I certainly wasn't accomplishing this goal through weight-lifting alone. I started to research how to clean up my diet and this brought me around to searching for a protein supplement. After finding several other protein shakes to be distasteful, I was advised to look at Syntha-6. After trying a sample (which is rare enough to find in a GNC) I knew I had found my protein shake. In this month, I have noticed incredible results in strength- it's like my body was completely prepped but lacked the proper building blocks.Positives: Many, but here are some that appealed most to me.-Taste: The strawberry milkshake is fantastic mixed with water (preferably ice cold to simulate an actual milkshake). I have heard and often used the comparison to a McDonald's strawberry milkshake- which is quite a leap above many other protein powders. I thought my sweet-tooth would be a huge handicap in achieving my fitness goals, but this protein shake really feels like I am treating myself after every workout. My 20 oz shaker bottle is usually empty by the time I am leaving the gym parking lot.-The nutritional value in a double serving can serve as a quick meal on-the-go (although I am currently at 6 small meals a day, one of these is usually a protein shake and possibly something small).-Going from a protein bar to Muscle Milk, I found a slight decrease in my recovery time. My first run with Syntha-6, I completed a brutal leg workout that I thought would have me wincing at the mere sight of the stairs in my house the next day. Although I still felt the work-out, I was able to complete my second day of training with some cardio thrown in without issue. Syntha-6 has not let me down yet for improving recovery time.-This was the perfect price for me. After searching other stores (bodybuilding.com, GNC, etc.) I found Amazon to have the best price and with free shipping it was a no-brainer. To give a good idea, using 4 servings daily (early day and post-workout) the 5.04 lb lasted just over a month (roughly 5 weeks). Time to get more!Negatives: The few and far between.-Mixability. I will be the first to admit that this is a rough shake to mix up. With a spoon and a glass it is nearly impossible. I had success with a blender, but I didn't really want to bring a portable electronic blender to the gym. This was a very quick fix however, as I got a blender bottle (recommended to purchase on Amazon or Wal-Mart) with the little wire ball and... Boom. Mixes great, although if the bottle is damp (recently washed) the powder has a tendency to absorb the droplets and congeal to those spots and sometimes mixing those out can be tough.-What to mix with? I recommend ice-cold water, but I did try it with both regular and soy milk. I was REALLY hoping the taste would come through in the soy milk, as it has greater nutritional value than regular milk. That was the only time I had to choke down a syntha-6 shake. In regular milk, it tastes similar to the Nesquik strawberry milk.-Scoop size. I know this is dumb, but the scoop is considerably large. I am going to estimate it to be about 3/4 of a cup (more or less?). I think this is part of the problem that people have with mixing it up. It suggests 8 oz of water per scoop and I have to dilute it a bit more than that... But this also helps get in my daily quota of H2O.Would I recommend this? Definitely.
