BSN SYNTHA-6 Whey Protein Powder with Micellar Casein, Milk Protein Isolate Powder, Vanilla Ice Cream, 48 Servings (Packaging May Vary)

Flavored good. Just had to much cholesterol in product.

I hate the taste of whey and most whey-based products, literally, make me ill (seriously.. as in I need to puke kind of ill). This is the first whey-based product Ive bought that doesnt make me sick. I added some ice cubes and half a banana, and it was actually pretty good! Contents of my protein shake: 8 ounces of Fairlife fat-free Ultra-Filtered Milk (13 gram of protein) 1 scoop Syntha 6 Vanilla Ice Cream Protein Powder (22 grams of protein) Half a banana (mostly for taste but it has some potassium in it · 145 mg). Thats 35 grams of protein and 305 calories. Yeah, I know. Its got some extra calories and carbs BUT it tastes a LOT better than the others Ive tried, and at least I can drink this one. Its not the same as a milkshake but its pretty good. Compared to the competition its EXCELLENT. My two cents worth. :D

The protein itself on the calories/grams is not bad, but the taste is hit or miss. Ive tried mixing it with milk and water and honestly i dont like the taste, it doesnt taste like chocolate it taste like what someone describes chocolate to taste like if that makes sense. The strawberry one imo is still better.

Vanilla Ice cream scoop is always my favorite. It blends easy and tastes great,

Im not a body builder or a hard core gym freak, but I do what I need to do to stay healthy. I take a pre-workout and protien shake twice a day, once in the morning and once immediatly after my workout and thats all the workout supplements I take. Ive used ON Gold Standard, Dymatize Elite, and Scivation Whey. I think they are all great and have a good taste and are also easy to mix, but Im leaning more towards the Syntha-6. First let me say that the cake batter is the best tasting protien Ive ever had, even my wife liked it (and shes very picky). Secondly, the mixability is good but I use the blender ball and that always gets it done. I did try to mix it one day without the blender ball and had some clumps, but nothing too bad. I felt like I had a noticable difference in the performance as well. I started taking syntha 6 after I took about 7-8 months off from the gym and I wasnt taking anything that entire time. I was literally starting out fresh. Ive done this before and I knew the first 2-3 weeks would be the worst. Muscles swelling, cramps, aching and so forth, HOWEVER I had none of that. This was the first time I didnt have cramps or severe swelling. I didnt hold back either, I pushed and did the force rep method and even some drop sets. The Syntha-6 gave me quick recovery times and excellent support for muscle growth. It was immediate. I had people asking me if I had been working out by week 2. They could see it that fast. 2 scoops in the morning every day (on days and off days) and then 2 scoops immediatly after your work out will get it done. This is an excellent protien for the money and worth the try. Im going to stick with this product for the long haul.

The taste alone beats a lot of other protein powders I’ve tried. Shipped and arrived extremely fast

Amazing

I have used many different protein powders over the last few years and the biggest complaint I have with most powders is the way they taste. Out of the many I had tried for years, I finally had settled on ON Whey Gold and it was OK, but I didnt love it and so I didnt drink it as much as I should have when working out. Also, it did cause gas issues, a common side affect of many protein shakes, and also the aftertaste wasnt bad, but nothing to be happy about either. The price was great on it as well, and so I just settled on it. Finally, after reading reviews about Syntha-6 online and having friends tell me about it, I gave it a shot and it is AMAZING!!!!! I only drink chocolate flavored protein shakes and this one is creamy and rich and so delicious that it doesnt even seem like you are drinking a protein shake. Also, it has 6 different kinds of protein sources, hence the name, and I like that so I get fast and slow digesting proteins at once, which is much better for overall muscle growth. In addition to that, and most important I think, is that it has digestive enzymes and also 5 grams of fiber per scoop. That helps so much in preventing bloating, gas, and even constipation. I know that may gross some people out, but for anyone drinking a few shakes a day, it is very important. The shake is a touch sweeter and I like that as well, and it is a good dessert as well. It has 22 grams of protein per scoop and mixed with 8 oz of milk, a perfect 30 gram shake that can be taken anytime during the day, or multiple times throughout the day. The cons: I wish it had more BCAAs, but from the powder form I buy of that, I know why they dont add extra in and that is because it would make it really chalky. Also, for the protein percent per scoop, it isnt as high as ON Whey or some others, but the mix of proteins compared to just straight whey is a better trade off I think. Pro and Con: The cost is a bit more to a lot more depending on sales and per scoop right now without any sales or coupons or other promos, it about a $1 per scoop where I could get ON Whey at about $0.50 per scoop. So yes, double the price, but when you realize that this is something much more enjoyable and that taste is just as important, than it justifies the cost. At best I could do 2-3 scoops of ON Whey Gold per day for a few weeks, but with this, I easily do double scoops after workouts and before bed, and another scoop upon waking and another as a snack, so about 6 scoops a day without ever getting tired of it. That is 180 grams of protein, plus 30 grams of fiber. I usually dont get that much fiber from my mostly meat diet otherwise, and as someone trying to get 250-300 grams of protein a day, this has helped out so much. Even if your just looking for a shake in the morning for breakfast, this is great as it has about 200 calories and when mixed with milk and then a piece of fruit or a small granola bar or other breakfast item, it is a great 400-500 calorie meal that is better than any fast food pickup you can make. I already recommend this to so many of my friends, and I will do the same for you as well ***** Bonus Points ********** I wanted to try different flavors of Syntha-6 and wanted to order trial kits of different flavors to try before buying a whole jug, and the flavors I wanted were out of stock at the time and so I emailed BSN. Within an hour, they responded, asked for my address and sent me a Cookie Dough and Chocolate Cake batter trial packet for free. They were apologetic for not having what I wanted in stock and thanked me for my business still and the two trial packets they sent were not asked for by me, yet delivered for free and I can say it is a joy to deal with great customer service. GO BSN!!!!!!!

Long story short, ive purchased this product for years. Both the syntha-6 vanilla and the chocolate milkshake flavors are my absolute favorite protein shakes based on the flavor alone, i use them as a meal replacement when i am in a hurry and it was almost a treat. I purchased it about 3-4 months ago and just recently ran of my previous bottle, and today i got this one and i prepared it like i regularly do but the flavor was very much off, i mean, it taste similar, just not as yummy as the previous one, so beware, BSN may have switched the formula to cut costs while also raising the price of the product, a shame because it went from my favorite to my im not so sure anymore.

Since Ive joined a gym and begun to focus on what goes in my body, Im working towards a moderate-protein, 1200ish calorie-a-day diet. I used to be an athlete in college, and I know how gross some protein shakes can be; many are just downright unpalatable. I did some research about protein powders with a decent amount of protein that both mix well and taste great, and I ordered Syntha-6 Chocolate Milkshake. For nearly a month, I consumed this flavor 1-3 days depending on my nutritional needs, workouts, etc. In order to attain some variety, I also ordered Orange Smoothie, Mochaccino, and Chocolate Mint. I also have subscribed to the Vanilla Ice Cream flavor, but it has yet to come. I mix all flavors with water and ice. Chocolate Milkshake: Taste - 8/10. Very creamy, tastes a lot like a variation of chocolate milk just with water. This flavor is also excellent blended with a teaspoon of peanut butter or 2/3 cup of frozen strawberries. Orange Smoothie : Taste - 5/10. Its ok. Its going to be my bottom-of-the-barrell, use-it-only-when-its-my-only-option flavor. It tastes too off, almost like orange fluoride from the dentist. Still very creamy. I blended it with ice and blue berries and it was WAY better-tasting than just with the powder alone. Mochaccino: Taste- 7/10. Its good and gets me through coffee cravings. Sometimes Ill just say screw it and make a blended drink much like large coffee chains do, but Ill use the power, ice, and and a to-go packet of instant coffee in the blender. It does kind of have a funky aftertaste. Chocolate Mint: Taste - 10/10. My favorite flavor so far by a long shot. Since I dont eat sweets, the Chocolate Mint flavor satisfies my cravings for Girl Scout Thin Mints, Andes Mints, and mint chocolate chip ice cream all in one. I cannot emphasize how great it tastes. The minty flavor stays with me like mint normally does, like fresh feeling in the mouth and back of throat.
