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

Taste is amazing

Good flavor, good amount of protein per scoop and price is okay.

Chocolate is my go to, 2 scoops after my workouts. I’d like to try the PB flavor but every new flavor I’ve tried is nasty besides the chocolate and the chocolate is still not that great, 7/10 on the flavor scale.

I’ve been using protein powder for 30 years this by far as the best tasting in offers the best value for the money in the most protein per serving

Taste good with just water. Amazing with milk.

Love the banana flavor especially with strawberries too in my protein shake

It does the job.

I’ve tried many protein powders before but this one is by far the best. It’s not like the regular protein powders that are thick and chalky, this protein powder is smooth and light I got the strawberry one and it tastes like strawberry milk.

This is a comprehensive review, comparing Dymatize Nutrition Elite Gourmet, Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Gold Standard, and BSN Syntha-6 Protein Powder, all in strawberry flavor. I have evaluated the protein based on price, taste, mixability, protein content, nutritional facts, and amino acids. I then compared each protein to its counterparts in each category and rated them best (3/3) to worst (1/3).

I have found the best concoction to be half Dymatize and half Syntha-6. It has a great flavor (a big step up from Dymatize alone) with the fullness Dymatize has to offer.

This particular offering from BSN seems to be harder and harder to find. Ive been using Syntha 6 Cookies N Cream for at least the past 4-5 years as its my favorite flavor. Ive usually purchased via BB.com, but like I said, the product seems to have been discontinued from that site and I was forced to look elsewhere. I decided to give this a go considering it was showing as coming from BSNs store via Amazon. The product branding seemed to be on point, but the taste seemed a bit off. Almost like they cut it with cheap filler ingredients. I couldnt bring myself to purchase it again after reviewing some similar reviews on this page. Further compounding that, the price has increased drastically with a present day price of over $71 as of 10/30/22, I purchased this back in July of 2022 for $59.99. Spare me the inflation argument as the increase in price exceeds 10% and inflation is closer to 8.2%.
