PhD Diet Whey Powder Belgian Chocolate, 2 kg

Great

Best whey so far

Il sapore è ottimo, non so dirvi altro

Prottepulver med en blandning av olika vasslefraktioner, sojaisolat, grönt te-extrakt, CLA och lite konsistensgivare. Trevlig konsistens, om än kanske något mjölig om man inte väntar ett tag. Smakar bra med ordentlig chokladsmak, inte så mycket sojasmak även om jag kan känna det. Smakar allra bäst om det blandas med mjölk. Perfekt frukostshake.

*** (Updated review from 20/09/17. I've now been using this product on an as required basis for a year. It continues to be of help & I'm certainly happy with it.) *** Due to extreme pain, disability, long term chronic health issues & the awful side effects of the required prescription meds involved; a normal healthy/balanced diet became exceptionally difficult to maintain. Obviously this is FAR from ideal & the situation as a whole was, & still is a concern. I often have to resort to using different types of supplements as substitutes to important dietary requirements which is not a good place to be at all, however, a whey protein powder was the logical option to cover that particular aspect. Importantly, any weight gain also needed to be avoided or better still, a protein supplement that could actively aid weight loss. (Thankfully this product has helped in that regard.) I very quickly settled upon this "PhD nutrition diet whey protein powder" after a short trial period, & after months testing multiple competing products. All things considered it's pretty good stuff. I still have a couple of minor niggles but they're observations more than criticisms to be fair, (many possibly won't even notice them at all)!! I generally mix up a double serving more as a brunch in place of any breakfast or lunch. This keeps me feeling full right through to the evenings & it helps to stop me snacking in the interim. (I really can't comment on it giving any additional energy, etc., my situation as a whole frequently causes significant fatigue making it incredibly difficult to gauge any such benefit.) Ordering via Amazon Prime works out at roughly £15 per kg which is a very good deal. I also purchased a "600ml PhD mix-ball shaker" as part of a package deal with a 2kg tub & it was a lot better than a shaker I already had. (Well worth the deal if you don't already have a shaker, or if you don't own, want or need a blender.) 1) Flavour. (Whilst obviously ALWAYS completely subjective), I wasn't expecting anything exceptional following the other products I had previously tried out, (especially with this being more of a "diet" option too). However, it certainly surpassed my expectations & it's not unpleasant at all, (I particularly like the Belgian choc or vanilla flavours). When mixed with water alone the shakes can taste just a little powdery but they're still perfectly acceptable as such. (ALL of the other powders I tried were far worse.) Ergo, I often make my shakes using (50/50) water & semi skimmed milk respectively, or 100% SS milk. Either option using milk completely removes the powdery flavour. Adding in any spare fruits or a touch of Greek yoghurt helps too if you blend. 2). Texture. It can also be a little gritty when mixed with water alone, even more so if consumed immediately after mixing. Using milk, or a mix of water & milk (as above) eliminates this issue, however, using milk can make the shakes quite a bit thicker. If mixed with water alone I leave my shakes to stand for 20 mins before consumption which also helps to minimise any grittiness. Again, It's not a huge issue & it remains more than acceptable to me in comparison to competitors products. Inevitably, I get a few tiny lumps that just won't break down when mixing using a shaker too, although they're not large enough to be a problem. Whatever the case, my shakes or blends still go straight down the hatch with no complaints. 3). Storage & longevity. The shelf life of the goods I've continually received directly from Amazon have always been a minimum of 22 months, (previous smaller batches sourced elsewhere barely had 4 months shelf life). It's a fresh product that will certainly last if (for example) you're alternating between 2 or more flavours purchased in bulk. A VERY thin external plastic anti-tamper seal is applied but there's no seal under the lids. The 2 kg tubs really are quite sizeable & some may well struggle with sufficient storage space. (I've included a photo of the 2 kg tub next to a universally sized 1 litre bottle for reference should it be of use.) On the plus side, the tubs are incredibly tough & robust. Once empty they're ideal for repeated reuse such as transferring in powders sourced in cheaper refill bags. The lids form a good seal to keep the powder within dry & fresh. A "single serving" sized plastic scoop IS INCLUDED, (you may just need to use something to fish around for it in the tubs as they can become well & truly buried from transit, etc.). All in all, it's a decent product despite some minor observations. To my mind it's a whole lot better than competing products of a similar price & it's certainly as good or better than some more expensive whey powders too. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, (just ensure you order a flavour you REALLY like if you're going to buy in bulk as 2 kg can go a long way depending on individual usage). Despite the observations I still rate it 5/5 & I'll certainly be continuing to purchase it.

Good flavor, good price, low calories
