Our take on the Optimum Nutrition 100% Gold Standard Whey Extreme Milk Chocolate 2.27 kg

Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard 100% Whey is the benchmark whey powder most other proteins get measured against. This Extreme Milk Chocolate tub mixes whey isolate, concentrate and peptides for 24 g of protein per scoop with 5.5 g of BCAAs and 4 g of glutamine, and it dissolves in a shaker with a few shakes. It suits lifters and everyday gym-goers who want a reliable post-workout shake, and it beats most budget whey on mixability and taste while costing less per serving than pure isolate powders. Reviewers consistently rate the chocolate flavors highest.

Questions and answers

How much protein is in each scoop?
Each scoop delivers about 24 g of protein, with 5.5 g of BCAAs and 4 g of glutamine. The powder is 75 g protein per 100 g.
Is this whey isolate or concentrate?
It is a blend of whey isolate, whey concentrate and whey peptides, with isolate listed first. That gives fast absorption without the cost of a pure isolate.
Is it suitable for lactose intolerance?
It contains lactose from the whey concentrate, so it may cause bloating in people who are sensitive. A pure whey isolate would be a safer choice for them.
How many servings are in the 2.27 kg tub?
About 71 servings at one scoop each. That works out to roughly two months of daily use.
How does it compare with Gold Standard Isolate?
The isolate version has more protein and fewer carbs and calories per scoop, but it costs more and has fewer flavor options. This blend is the better all-round pick for most people.
When should I take it?
Most people take a scoop within an hour after training, or use it as a snack to hit their daily protein target. It works any time of day.
