About Protein Powder: GFR Health Whey Protein

Hello everyone, today I'm going to review another brand of protein from GFR Health. This edition will be chocolate flavoured.

Nutritional Value

This protein is an isolate which contains 120 calories, 2 grams of fat (1.4g saturated), and 25 grams of protein per 32 gram serving. Like most other proteins, this is sweetened with sucralose.

Absorption

Whey is the fastest absorbing protein available so its great at any time especially before or after a workout. This protein is NOT hydrolyzed. This protein is an isolate so it gives a great concentration of protein per gram.

Taste and Mixing

This powder actually tastes quite nice in milk, but is absolutely disgusting in water. This powder is quite bad when it comes to mixing since there will always be chunks of powder floating around. For this reason, this is usually the protein I put on snacks rather than in my drinks.

Price

I grabbed this protein for $25/2kg at my local Costco which is actually a great price up here. What it may lack in some convenience, it definitely makes up for in price.

Final Thoughts

To finish this review off, although this protein is rather poor when it comes to mixing, it does have a pretty decent taste to it and it's a great value considering that it's a cheap protein powder, especially for an isolate. Basically, if you're looking for the most bang for your buck, this might be it. Thanks for reading this review and remember to check back for more!
