Customer Reviews: Syntha-6 (2.91 lbs.) by BSN
The Comeback Helper By: DonnReview posted on: Fri Mar 13 15:13:02 -0400 2009 After being out the weight room for a couple of months I was ready to get back on track. I Had seen a add for BSN and liked the clean no flash approach they used. So I did some mild research and after seeing the good reviews decided to give their protein a try. I picked up the banana flavor after waking from the high price induced comma. The first thing I noticed was the excellent texture and taste of this product far better than the (mostly store brand) whey proteins I had tried previously. No clumps no nasty after taste just great shakes you actually look forward to drinking. Then I noticed the effectiveness and boy what a difference from the simple whey concentrates I had been using. The main effect is in recovery ( Its still just protein so your not going to blow all your 1RMs away by using it) because for me it was instant. On my rest days my muscles felt worked out and as if they were pushing against my skin but the pain full soreness I was accustom to was no more. My guess is that it is the slow digesting proteins in this formula that really separate it from those consisting of just whey and it is a difference you feel. So I recommend this product if not on the taste alone but for the fact that IT DOSE WHAT IT IS SUPPOSED TO DO! Simply the best By: AntonioReview posted on: Sun Feb 22 21:30:52 -0500 2009 Guys im telling you, this is by far the best tasting protein their is. You actually look forward for when its time to take it. I tried chocolate and its amazing, but strawberry? STRAWBERRY!!! my god I would serve this as a disert on a restaurant (no after taste at all, actually it'll be great if it had). I would recomend taking it at night before you go to sleep, so you get a full 6 hours of protein intake while you sleep, little expensive though, taking 2 scoops a day it last 15 days. Amazing Taste, Great Profile By: AaronReview posted on: Mon Aug 04 17:08:12 -0400 2008 The chocolate is amazing. It tastes so good, that I'll most likely be trying one of each on my next order, lol. I couldn't believe it when I first heard the reviews, but now Syntha-6 is my mid-day protein staple. The slower burning proteins are not best for post workout, but would be fine for a pre-workout meal enhancement or a mid day snack. Awesome stuff! By: ChrisReview posted on: Sat May 03 20:32:17 -0400 2008 Must say this protein is great tasting. I have strawberry flavor and I liked it so much that I ordered three more tubs. Love it! I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a great protein shake. Best Protein Available By: MattReview posted on: Thu Feb 28 11:06:17 -0500 2008 Syntha-6 is the best tasting protein available today. It is far and away the best tasting protein if you are mixing it with water. I recently tried the reformulated (reduced fat, added fiber) Muscle Milk, and Syntha-6 is still superior. Strawberry, Mochaccino, Chocolate, Banana and Vanilla are especially good. Haven't tried Chocolate Mint yet. Cookies & Cream is an excellent rendition of the flavor, but I guess I'm not a huge fan of cookie-flavored beverages. Great taste By: RichardReview posted on: Mon Nov 26 18:47:01 -0500 2007 The strawberry is one of the best tasting proteins I have ever tried and I have tried a few dozen different brands over the year. Even with water it actually does taste like a strawberry milk shake. I have tried all of the other flavors as well and all of them are pretty good but strawberry was the best. I recommend the banana for mixing with fruit in a blender even my kids will drink this with some strawberry's or blueberries thrown in. Delicious & Nutritious! By: KeiReview posted on: Mon Nov 26 18:33:09 -0500 2007 I have tried ALL the flavors except mochaccino and all have 5 star tasting to me. I personally prefer to have in stock strawberry flavor but I like to rotate all the flavors around just to have variety. The one thing I always have liked about syntha-6 is the protein content, even though it is not truly a post workout protein like a whey only protein, it is good for ANYTIME use even at night. Try it for yourself, you won't regret it! A good buy. By: NathanReview posted on: Tue Nov 13 16:55:32 -0500 2007 Ok so for the most part depending on what's in your protein powder most people buy based on taste (who wants protein that tastes horrible right). So I not only bought Syntha-6 because of the numerous and high quality proteins that it contains, but because those who reviewed it said that it tasted good. They were correct. Both Chocolate and Mochaccino tasted great. Now I have never tasted anything as good as Muscle Milk and this is no exception, but I would definitely buy this based on it's nutrient profile. The price is reasonable as well. Thumbs up. syntha6 By: JeffReview posted on: Tue Nov 13 16:55:23 -0500 2007 a good blend of protiens. awesome taste i felt it was a treat everytime i got to drink a shake. Strawberry is what i had and taste like a real strawberry shake. Strawberry syntha-6 By: jayReview posted on: Tue Nov 13 16:55:14 -0500 2007 I just returned a few days ago from a strongman competition I did in P.E.I. Canada. After the competitions we were given some sample goodies from GNC, a few being BSN products. I wasn't honestly expecting much but I tried the strawberry milk shake Syntha-6 mixed in water and expected to have to force it down, but much to my surprize it actually tasted like a strawberry shake! I very much recomend this stuff to anyone with any health and fitness goals. I experienced absolutly no bloating or cramping as I sometimes do with other powders. I'll be investnig in BSN products in the future to be certain! Favorite Flavor! By: MichaelReview posted on: Tue Nov 13 16:55:05 -0500 2007 This is by far my favorite in water flavor. I mix this in with a snack in between meals at work to keep my protein load up. It's amazingly tasty, and has a great balance of nutrients. People doc it for it's lack of a # on the amino acids content, but it's patented so they can't be specific. Regardless, I've had no problems with recovery, or muscle growth with this protein. A+++ Second Favorite Flavor! By: MichaelReview posted on: Tue Nov 13 16:55:05 -0500 2007 I like the Mocaccino flavor better, but my gf doesn't like it as much as the vanilla. So I comprimise and get both. When we goto workout, she always wants some vanilla Syntha-6 afterwards, so it's definitely got the thumbs up approval. At work I mix mocaccino flavored syntha-6 for snack time. |
