    Well, Ive been trying out various protein powders this year, for trying to lose weight, not for working out. As I type this, I have six different brands in house in various flavors. Syntha-6 beats them all on the flavor. I try the mixes with milk, but judge them on how I normally drink them, which is with cold water. (Milk and I dont agree very much, so I have to limit my milk intake drastically.) So far, Ive only tried the Syntha-6 in the Vanilla Ice Cream flavor. I read through almost all the reviews before purchasing,and looked up more on the actual contents of the product on another site. (This is a downfall of Amazons - they dont provide enough information on the ingredients for food products! To list foods, I wish theyd require at minimum that the Nutrition Facts label contents be posted! Anyway, I must say that this powder has fantastic flavor, both with water and with milk. It is higher in calories than some of the other brands out there, but has more protein. One of the reasons I tried it (and the reason I rule out many other brands/flavors) is that this has NO ASPARTAME. I am allergic to it, and must watch all foods and supplements carefully for it being snuck in to the mixes. This does have some corn syrup in it, which is probably why it tastes so good! But, if you are someone who is avoiding corn sweeteners, then note that this item has it. It tastes a lot like a bowl of good vanilla ice cream that melted would taste. Yes, it is that creamy and tasty. My only real complaint about this item is that it makes a very thin-bodied shake. It is like a glass of vanilla milk in texture. If you mix it with water, it looks like really cheap skim milk. Thats a bit of a put-off. I ended up mixing it half and half with a flavor of Spiru-Tein and got a decent, tasty thick shake. (Note that I really dont like Spiru-teins vanillas - theres not much hope for them. But other flavors mix nicely with this brands vanilla.) Now, note that I have limitations in my mixing that many others wont have. I am partially disabled, so cant always get ice when I want it, or just throw some frozen fruit into the mix. Many times, I am home alone and the kitchen is downstairs, out of my reach. I did try this with ice, and that helped A LOT. Definitely better and a tad thicker when ice cubes were added to the mix. But, I dont see why Syntha-6 doesnt add a little more of some type of thickener to the mix. It would make a world of difference in the general texture of the drink. I havent tried adding a little guar gum myself yet, so dont know if that would help. Here is the ingredient list: A Sustained Release Ultra-Premium Protein Matrix Comprised of (Ultrafiltered Whey Protein Concentrate [Milk] Rich in Alpha-Lactalbumin, Microfiltered Whey Protein Isolate [Milk] Rich in Whey Isolate Peptide Fractions, Calcium Caseinate, Micellar Alpha and Beta Caseins and Caseinates [Milk], Milk Protein Isolate [Milk], and Egg Albumen [Egg], Glutamine Peptides), Richmix Sunflower Powder Consisting of (Sunflower Oil, Corn Syrup Solids, Sodium Caseinate [Milk], Mono- and Di-Glycerides, and Dipotassium Phosphate), Litesse II Polydextrose, Natural and Artificial Flavors, Nutrisperse MCT Powder Consisting of (Medium Chain Triglycerides, Non-Fat Dry Milk, Disodium Phosphate, and Silicon Dioxide), Ticalose Cellulose Gum, Sucralose, Acesulfame Potassium, Lecithin [Soy], Aminogen, and Papain. Overall, I really like this product. Since I started using it, my nails have been growing like crazy! Not sure if it is related to this product, but it was certainly a change I experienced. I dont feel hungry afterwards, and it doesnt leave me with hairy tongue like some powders do. I definitely will be trying some other flavors as the finances allow.

    Tried a lot of protein powders and this one works well and tastes good. Use it in shakes, smoothies and over yogurt. We also have used it in protein balls and it is good for that too! We will continue to purchase it although the price has gone up almost 50%.

    Would of given it a 5 star only because I had to dig the scoop out first I thought it didn’t come with one so I had to figure out how much to use. First time using this product. Good in taste had the chocolate flavor. It says 28 servings I’m on 15 and it’s almost gone with using their scoop not sure how ?

    Mixes well with milk, Texture is a bit different since its a whey/casein mixture then pure whey, But its very drinkable, I mixed it with a scoop of Boost Vanilla to get my needed vitamins in as well as protein for breakfast, Im just a normal non body builder type looking to replace breakfast meals with a shake. This fits my needs. Taste is a generic vanilla, I cant tell the difference between it and boost vanilla powder, The after taste has a slight very slight cardboard flavor that dissipates pretty quickly. Overall its a 4/5 its my 2nd protein powder Ive ever tried, with Ghost Whey being the first and preferred. But this is good too. Will have to try the cookies and cream flavor to get a lil chocolate in there. UPDATE: Picked up the 5lb jug of the vanilla, Ive learned to love the taste, and the digestive enzymes they add REALLY HELP With the Gas/bloating issues other products may provide, this one does not give me gas or bloating!! LOVE THIS PRODUCT!

    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.

    This is great if youre bulking, amazing taste so easy to down. I would recommend also getting their mass gainer and mixing with milk, literally turns into a vanilla shake. Product on its own is a tier above in terms of flavor vs all other brands though.

    Ive been buying this for many years - its good for workouts or for a meal replacement. Taste is quite good and with a shaker bottle its not hard to dissolve. Given current market conditions its now less expensive per gram of protein for me to buy ribeye and I find meat cleaner and more complete. This product used to be more cost effective than ground beef and I appreciated that. I still have one bottle of this on hand and will be moving it to urgent/convenience status for rare use. Fortunately it keeps very well in a cool dark closet.
