How much protein is in each scoop?

Each serving has 20 g of protein from whey isolate and concentrate, with 1 g of sugar and no fat. That is lower per scoop than many 24–25 g whey powders, so heavy users may take two scoops.

Is Animal Whey gluten-free?

Yes, it is labeled gluten-free and contains no artificial colors. It also includes digestive enzymes, which Universal says aid absorption.

How does it compare with a pure whey isolate?

Animal Whey blends isolate with concentrate, so it has slightly more carbs and lactose than a pure isolate. It costs less than most pure isolates and mixes just as smoothly for most users.

Which flavors are available?

Vanilla, chocolate, cookies & cream and strawberry. Chocolate and cookies & cream get the most praise from buyers.

How many servings are in a tub?

The 4 lb tub has about 57 servings and the 2 lb tub about 46, based on one scoop per serving. Serving counts vary slightly by flavor.

When should I take it?

Most users take it within an hour after training, but it works any time you need protein. It mixes with water or milk.

Our take on the Universal Animal Whey

Animal Whey is Universal's whey protein powder, sold in 2 lb and 4 lb tubs across vanilla, chocolate, cookies & cream and strawberry. Each scoop delivers 20 g of protein from whey isolate and concentrate with 1 g of sugar, no fat and added digestive enzymes, so it mixes smooth and suits low-carb and gluten-free diets. It sits in the crowded whey market as a mid-protein, easy-mixing option rather than a high-dose isolate; reviewers rate it highly for taste and digestion, though the 20 g scoop is lower than many rivals' 24–25 g.
