Chocolate peanut butter is like drinking a *Reeses cup shake. Seriously, amazing (and thats mixed with water! I havn't tried with milk yet.) I've also heard good things about strawberry. Regardless of the flavor you choose, make sure it's extremely cold when you drink it. That always helps.

I just love the Mochachino, I drink a shake every day. It even tastes great made with water, although I use lowfat milk to get more protein. I had bariatric surgery 8 months ago and this is only brand of protein shake I can still stand to drink. The rest make me gag now!

Thanks Charles! I chose strawberry then and still love it. It's about to finish so your comment is useful now if not then :D . This time I will check out chocolate peanut butter. Take care..

I usually do about 30-35g. It's really a matter of preference honestly. If you don't mind a plain powder water flavor or don't want the extra calories stick with water. I drink that way most of the time. When need a slight change I mix in some powdered chocolate or flavored bcaa powder.

Like many of the others here, I'm not sure about any hormones. It's amazing to see how people have responded so differently to this product. I'm currently taking a protein and collagen powder mix, which is not the Neocell brand. Since I'm almost out of this product, I'm considering going back to the Neocell collagen and then add my own protein powder. From my experience, the Neocell collagen has given me the best results.

It seems good to me.....I need extra protein in my diet and thought this was a good way to supplement it. I like that it is very easy to mix when I don't use my blender. I just add it to water in my glass and mix with a spoon. I tend to drink it after working out. I've had other protein shakes over the years and this one is low in sugar, easy to mix & has a good creamy taste. (before drinking after mixing, I let it sit for about a minute and it seems to get more creamy) I really like it.

I prefer the Vanilla, I just ordered the chocolate to try it and definitely prefer the Vanilla. Not a great chocolate taste.

Muscle growth and performance doesn't have much to do with the type of protein you take its more based on how much protein your taking in every day. I honestly think that optimum nutrition is a better protein, syntha has more artificial sweeteners which are not good in terms of muscle growth. The cinnamon Garham cracker optimum is one of the best proteins I've ever tasted buy its all just based off your own preference. Syntha focuses more on taste but for the price optimum is the one to go with.

Aminos are the building blocks of protein. With that said, your actual questions would be. What is syntha 6 protein bioavailability? Ie the acutual protein my body will use. Syntha 6 is actually 6 proteins in one which make it more popular then "on whey" for obviously the different digestion stages. A scoop has 22 grams of which 80% is bioavailability is dependent on you. "Ie before or after workout before or after bed. In between meals your basically piss out your money because the body brakes it down to the amino acids needed at the time. It's an excellent maintance protein. You want more protein bioavailability for your money look into isopure or my favorite to stack with syntha 6 which is humapro

I tried the Vega One and the Plant Fusion samples last week. However, the Vega One sample was chocolate and this one was vanilla bean. I liked the texture of the Plant Fusion better. The Chocolate Vega was pretty sweet but tasted very rich and chocolatey. I believe is has more carbs/sugar than the plant fusion. Plant fusion had more protein per serving and based on the one by one comparison the plant fusion seemed to keep me fuller longer, but its pretty subjective. I do know that based on the samples I tried I would prefer this product over the Vega One sample based on content, protein, sugar, and taste. But, Vega One was good and I would happily drink it too.

Hello,Thank you for your interest in DrVita. BSN syntha-6 protein is a product for both men and women. Let me know if you need anything else, and have a great day.

No after taste that I am aware of. That is why I like it. It is pretty bland. I sometimes mix with fruit and/or powder form of greens. I like it because it is not sweet like so many of the vanilla proteins seem to be. Just make sure you keep it sifted. I use a wire whip in the container it comes in. It mixes easily, but can get compacted in the container.

I think I prefer vanilla when it comes to this brand. I'm normally a chocolate guy, but the Sun Warrior vanilla isn't too saccharine and tastes pretty decent as far as protein shakes go. Hope this helps!

Personally, I think very highly of BSN protein products (they are my favorites). There may have been some slight labeling changes over the years but I cannot remember. My suggestion would be to ensure that the two products you are comparing are in fact the same (one might be isolate vs non-isolate, or size of the container, or the "Dessert" product vs the "Syntha-6" product). I'm not sure what you are referring to by "PD" and Exp", sorry. I understand your caution about trying something new but both my personal testimony and the aggregate of reviews on Amazon should provide you some confidence that you are purchasing a great product. Anything beyond that, you're just going to have to try it for yourself.

I have the same question, why is this only available in VERY VANILLA.. I only buy the very vanilla type because I have no other choice, but this is too sweet for me, too! Soy is healthy, but the sugar content in it? That makes me nervous.. I hope that the SILK company will start making the original -- or even the no sugar-added soymilk in tetrapacks, like this!

I enjoy it but the taste for this type of product is a very personal experience. I have read other reviews of people who might not like it but I am someone who enjoys natural tasting things. I don't like something having a very sweet tasting chocolate and this does not. You might want to go to a local Whole Food Store or some type of health food store as they usually sell one serving packets. This way you can taste it before buying. I did this when I bought another product I am now using and bought at Amazon called RAW meal replacement. Much less expensive on Amazon and this is now my choice of for shakes. Hope this helps.

Personal preference rules that. My favorite is strawberry: it reminds me of strawberry Quick, but a bit less sweet. The vanilla is only a hair behind in deliciousness. I drink both plain, or added to fruit smoothies. The chocolate is good, but nothing amazing to me.

It depends on what others you're comparing it to. I used an online ranking and to me it was good enough, especially for the price. There were some above this one with exceptional quality that were also considerably pricier. This one was still sufficiently above average in quality for a price that is nearly below average, and the taste was pretty decent (I got the chocolate flavor). I wish I could find the scale for you but I have no idea where I placed it, but you might get something doing a Google search. BTW, when I say quality I am mainly referring to protein content/ratio.
