Optimum Nutrition Platinum Hydrowhey Protein Powder, 100% Hydrolyzed Whey Isolate Powder, Flavor: Velocity Vanilla, 3.5 Pounds (Packaging May Vary)

This stuff used to be around $60 each. The price is out of control these days. Almost over $100.

Hydrolyzed whey protein is partially digested and it tastes awful, thats just how it is. If you buy a hydrolyzed whey protein that doesnt taste terrible, its because it contains very little hydrolyzed whey. Hydrolyzed whey has a powerful muscle building effect because of its bioavailability and because its insulinotropic and will create lean muscle much better than any other protein source. (hydrolyzed collagen or collagen peptides also has similar benefits) Optimum Nutrition Hydrolyzed Whey tastes like it should, but not as good as other protein powders made from lesser protein. Hope they keep making it, but reviewers seem to be put off by the flavor. Mix it with another protein powder and some milk to take the edge off the flavor.

Excellent choice I did. The flavor is better that any protein I used before. Recommend 100%. If you want extra sweet, you can add peanut butter and maybe a banana.

Ive tried countless protein powders. Theres a reason for the cost...it works and contributes to my energy and gains. Tastes amazing. Gentle on stomach. This has been my holy grail for almost 2yrs

I usually take protein shake after my workout. The benefits of optimum nutrition platinum hydro whey is absorbed fast and I feel my muscles get energy

Just a quick flavor review. Im coming over from Muscle Milk. I usually drink Natural Vanilla or Cookies & Cream with Muscle Milk. I just tried the Velocity Vanilla from Optimum Nutrition Hydrowhey and its not very good at all. I actually enjoy the Muslce Milk flavor but this is pretty bad tasting. On the plus side, Its only 1 scoop so ill live with it. I may try chocolate next time. Muscle Milk: 2 scoops, 280 Cal, 32g Protien Optimum Nutrition Hydrowhey: 1 scoop, 140 calories, 30g Protien

General: Extremely high quality protein. The price is absolutely justified. Know that most other protein powders out there are not made equal. Theyre mostly below this one in quality. A full scoop mixes very well with 6-8 ounces of water in my shaker bottle. Also mixes well with milk, not as good as water, but definitely still good. Try it in a blender for smoothest results! Flavors (that I have tried): Turbo Chocolate (TC) - great all around. Tastes just fine. To me, its not something that tastes so good that I couldnt wait to drink it, but it does not taste bad to any extent. Its kind of like water to me, I need it, I drink it, and done. Awesome. I give it an 8.5/10 on taste. Next, it mixes so well, sometimes the consistency of the shake was barely distinguishable from water. Its also very versatile! If you plan on adding multiple ingredients to your shake, chances are that TC will pair well. If youre trying the product out for the first time, get this one. Cookies and Cream Overdrive (CCO) - Ugh. No, just no. Dont get it. Protein quality is obviously the same, but just....no. Its especially bad as the first thing in the morning. I give it a 4.5/10. After having TC flavor, I decided to be a bit more adventurous. Got this one in the hopes that it would taste similar to Muscle Milks cookies and cream flavor and boy did it tank. Optimum Nutrition dropped the ball on CCO. Not only does it not taste good, but it doesnt mix as well as TC does. Multiple times Ive had some of the unmixed but wet powder lining the bottom edges of my shaker bottle. Had to dig it out with a spoon. Blasted waste. After my first serving, I dreaded that I had to wait at least a month to finish the stuff and go back to something better. I eventually got used to the taste, but please dont subject yourself to that kind of torture. Think I may just stick to Turbo Chocolate!

6 months ago Hydrowhey was 59.75. now they increased the weight by .1 lbs and increased the price by $25. i like hydrowhey, but not that much

Good product I have bought this so many times over the years, but it has become way too expensive, hence the average rating. Their profit margins were still probably fine but now they are just being greedy as this product is now over twice the price that it should be... Their mistake, as myself and many others will no longer be buying at this ridiculous price point. Will find an alternative product at a price thats actually reasonable.

Excellent addition to my workout routine. The flavor is not bad. I can already see the benefits of my workouts
