....especially if you're a little older (I'm 46). I workout pretty regularly; a combination of strength and cardio training. I was taking Optimum Nutrition's 100% Whey for the longest, mainly because of the lower calorie count and supposedly more "usable" protein profile (100% whey w/no fillers or additional nutrients), but really wasn't seeing any benefit from it. However, since switching to Muscle Milk (which also tastes FAR better btw), I've noticed an increase in performance, muscle tone, and fat loss. Sure, it's got a few more calories but it actually helps suppress my appetite. It also has different forms of protein for immediate uptake and gradual uptake. Most importantly though, are the inclusion of amino acids. Amino acids are necessary for building muscle, as well as a number of other beneficial bodily processes. Sure, you can get them from a "well balanced" diet, but many among us can actually boast such a diet. On top of that, we all know that as you get older, your body just doesn't work/ process as efficiently as it once did. So again.... Amino acids matter. If you're active and older, give it a shot. This will be my "go-to" protein from now on.It mixes well with a basic blender cup, although I only do one scoop at a time (2 - 3 shakes/day). With oat milk it tastes like a straight up milkshake. Wish a 5lb tub lasted a little longer, but no biggie. Overall great product.Pretty much all these tastes the same But this larger size you get a better value it does seem to cut appetite and seems to mix pretty easyThe flavor taste like melted chocolate ice cream. The only thing is the container says to mix 2 scoops with 10-16oz of water/milk. It was wayyyy tooo chunky and gritty and did not mix well. I recommend 1 scoop with 16oz of milk and it tasted amazing. If you want to mix in 2 scoops you need around 32oz of water/milk for it to be smooth. Other than that this product is great!Good taste for both Vanilla and Chocolate. It mixes very smooth with both water and milk - easy to drink.Pretty tasty and keeps me full.Seems to be good product and works well. Have been using for a month or so. No major issues faced so far and feel energetic.I LIKES IT!. Wish it was 80 grmsVery good calorie to protein ratio. Not high in cholesterol like many other brands. Chocolate, vanilla and strawberry are all very good in taste too.
