Looking for a new whey protein powder?

mini homer

Have been using Olympus health 5kg protein for the last year or so but according to reviews its full of soy but it's very good value less than 50 euro for a tub.anyone know a better quality protein out there?heard myprotein and bulk powders are good anyone have any recommendations for good quality protein powder

MyProtein, Bulk Powders and The Protein Works are all good.

Bulk Powders are doing a deal today and tomorrow only where you can get two 2.5kg bags for €50 with the promo code PER225.

If the Olympus you were using was the All In One protein, it has 46.5g of protein per 100g. That's a poor return. And there are fewer servings than the three I mentioned which would be more servings per unit and would be ~ 80g protein per 100g.

I use Kinetica, it tastes good, and works well. It's not the cheapest but it's made in Ireland, so it's worth a small premium.

Yeah it was the all in one protein I got by the looks of it,it's very high in sugars and carbs.i put on an awful lot of weight from taking it which I find hard to loose.

And its píss poor as a source of protein for something which is marketing itself as a good source of protein

Arrived with DPD today.

As a lover of all things banana I'm delighted their banana flavour kicks the crap out of MyProtein's.

A serving is 47.2g with 22g protein. That's just less than 47%.

With like of MyProtein and Bulk Powders, you're getting 77-80% protein, less carbs and less sugar. And more servings per unit weight.

Comparison works out along the lines of 21g protein per euro for Syntha-6 and 48g per euro from MyProtein.

Are bulk powders based in Ireland? Haven't tried them yet, how long is delivery?
