Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard 100% Whey

Whey Protein Isolates (WPIs) are the purest form of whey protein currently available. That's why they are the first ingredient you read on the Gold Standard 100% Whey label. By using WPIs as the primary ingredient along with ultra-filtered whey protein concentrate (WPC), we are able to pack 24 grams of protein into every serving to support your muscle-building needs after training. This high-quality powder has been proven to mix easily using a shaker cup or just a glass and spoon. There's no doubt that this is the standard by which all other whey proteins are measured.

Each serving of Gold Standard 100% Whey provides 24g of premium whey protein to support muscle growth and recovery, 5.5g of naturally occurring BCAAs and many other minerals, but only 1g of fat, 1g of sugar, and 3g of carbohydrates.

Directions for Use:

Spoon Stirring: Gold Standard 100% Whey™ is instantized. This means that if you forgot your shaker cup or don't have time to get out the blender, you can simply add one rounded scoop of Gold Standard 100% Whey™ to a glass filled with 6-8 oz of water or your favorite beverage. Then mix it with a spoon. Stir for about 20 seconds or until the powder is completely dissolved. Tip: Adjust the intensity of your Gold Standard 100% Whey™ shake by varying the amount of liquid used. For a bolder flavor with more body and sweetness, mix each scoop with 4-6 oz of water, milk, or your favorite beverage. For a milder, less sweet shake, use 8-10 oz of liquid per scoop.

Shaker Cup: Bringing a shaker cup with you to the gym is the best way to get a powerful dose of protein immediately after your workout. Simply pour 6-8 oz of your preferred beverage, then add one rounded scoop of Gold Standard 100% Whey™ to the shaker cup. Cover and shake for 25-30 seconds.

Blender: Add one rounded scoop of Gold Standard 100% Whey™ to a blender filled with 6-8 oz of water, skim milk, or your favorite beverage. Blend for 20-30 seconds. Then add 1 or 2 ice cubes and blend for an additional 30 seconds. Enhance Your Shake: By adding fresh or frozen fruit, peanut butter, flaxseed oil, coconut, or other energy-rich ingredients, you can transform your shake into a delicious, high-protein meal. Enhance Your Shake: You can make Gold Standard 100% Whey™ an even better recovery product by adding supplements like creatine, glutamine, BCAA, and concentrated carbohydrate powders.

Think Outside the Glass: Gold Standard 100% Whey™ can be used for more than just protein shakes. Try mixing one scoop into your oatmeal, yogurt, or the milk you pour over your morning cereal. Even better, boost the protein content of muffins, cookies, brownies, and more by adding one or two scoops to your baked goods recipes.

Suggested Use: Consume approximately 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight per day, through a combination of high-protein foods and protein supplements. For best results, consume your daily protein intake over several small meals spread evenly throughout the day.
