Optimum Nutrition Platinum Hydrowhey 1.6 kg

High quality protein

In the line of the manufacturer Optimum Nutrition, protein belongs to premium solutions. First of all, this is due to the raw materials used and their high-quality cleaning. So, the source of protein in Platinum Hydrowhey is whey hydrolyzate — the most purified and quickly digestible protein with a minimum amount of carbohydrates (including lactose) and fats.

The overall quality of the supplement is also confirmed by the repeated hit of the protein in the TOP ratings of the authoritative resource Bodybuilding.com. And the users themselves note the absence of negative reactions from the gastrointestinal tract.

Best Amino Acid Profile

In addition to hydrolyzed whey protein isolate, the powder also includes a trinity of micronized branched chain amino acids (leucine, isoleucine and valine). As a result, with the recommended 39-gram serving of the supplement, 30 g of protein is supplied to the body, and it contains at least 15.5 essential amino acids, including 8.8 g of BCAAs.

This amino acid profile is one of the best on the market, with the vast majority of other proteins claiming around 5-6g of BCA per serving. In fact, with Optimum Nutrition Platinum Hydrowhey 1.6 kg, you can completely abandon the separate intake of BCAAs or complex amino acids for muscle protection and recovery.

Other chips

The protein comes in a jar with a scoop inside. The choice of flavors is not the largest, but traditionally popular variations are available, including chocolate and vanilla. The disadvantages of the supplement include a solid calorie content (140 kcal), since the recommended dose here is more suitable for the purposes of mass gain. But if you need to lose weight, then nothing prevents you from cutting the serving, for example, by 10 g. Then the energy value will drop to 105 kcal, and the amount of protein received will still be at a high level (22.5 g). In addition, in such dosages, the jars will last for a longer time (not for 40, but at least 54 doses).

The disadvantage of sports nutrition is the high cost. Although if you want to test one of the best whey proteins on the market, Optimum Nutrition Platinum Hydrowhey 1.6kg is definitely worth paying extra for.
