The Original Blue Raspberry Ice combines protein building blocks and minerals for workout support, with limited evidence for extra performance from this serving. Its unidentified blend makes the full formula harder to check.

AI assessment of the formula, label and price. How scoring works

Nutrient Quality23

Most preparations are unspecified, limiting useful quality comparisons. The potassium mixture’s proportions and the blend’s components are also unclear.

Ingredient Transparency44

Most amounts are stated, but carbohydrate and a label heading lack clear amounts. Nearly all forms and the blend’s composition are omitted, making a complete comparison difficult.

Value For Money72

The serving cost is favorable for leucine, sodium and potassium, with reasonably good value for several other amino acids. Value for vitamin B6 and citrulline malate remains uncertain.

Customer Satisfaction89

Customer ratings are positive across a very large number of responses. The broad feedback base describes satisfaction without proving improved performance.

Product Focus35

The formula is aimed at workout-related support, but its citrulline amount offers limited grounds for expecting extra performance. Vitamin B6 may help tiredness when intake is low, while the unidentified blend limits a full assessment.
