Myprotein Impact Whey Protein Review

MyProtein are up there with the best selling brand of supplements – but with their army of influencers getting smaller and some heading over to rival company Bulk Powders – is the case of MyProtein a bit of a lost cause in this day and age or do their products still hold their own?

Ingredients

The ingredients list is nice and simple with nothing out of the ordinary, perfect for a staple whey protein powder:

Whey Protein Concentrate, Cocoa Powder, Natural And Artificial Flavoring, Soy Lecithin, Sucralose.

Benefits and effectiveness

The benefits of a whey protein powder and pretty self explanatory. With an expected 20-25g of protein per serving of the powder, the supplement allows for a quick and easy hit of protein for wherever you may be.

The beauty of whey powder is that it can be made and consumed within a couple of minutes with only two main parts: the whey powder and the water. It’s a great way to get a protein hit on the go or as a cheaper alternative to purchasing expensive cuts of meat to hit your daily intake.

Effectiveness is the as expected with all whey protein powders and MyProtein’s Impact Whey doesn’t disappoint. With 20g of protein per serving – it’s an effective boost that can be taken upto 3 times daily.

Taste

When it comes to flavours – MyProtein is completely unrivalled with a gigantic selection of adventurous flavours to go along with the usual vanilla, chocolate and strawberry trio. Whether birthday cake is more your style, apple crumble and custard takes your fancy or tirrasmu is up your street – there’s definitely a flavour for everyone – and they all taste great!

A comment could be made of the consistency of the shake as on testing we found that occasionally there would be small lumps of solid whey in the mix. Although this can easily be solved with the use of a blender or perhaps a better shaker – it was a problem not found with Optimum Nutrition’s Gold Standard.

Cost

Cost is where MyProtein really comes into its own. Whey powder as a general rule is all the same – all you’re really paying for is the marketing and the taste. If you feel that you’re into one of the flavours that you can find on the website and don’t have any issues with the consistency when you’re making a shake – then MyProtein really is the best way to go.

Starting at $32.99 for 2.2lbs (US) / £16.99 for 1KG (UK) / $38.99 for 1KG (AUS) of powder – it’s a steal and if you wait for a day that there’s a huge sale on (there’s one every few days seemingly) then you’ll be seeing that price absolutely annihilated. A strong 10/10 for the cost here.

Final thoughts

If you’re looking for a good, solid protein powder that you can trust that won’t break the bank that offers a huge range of flavours then look no further. MyProtein is likely the best product that you’ll find today.
