Analysis

24 g of protein provides a useful amount for meals, snacks, or post-exercise nutrition. With 1.5 g of fat and 3 g of carbohydrate, the serving keeps most of its nutrition focused on protein.

110 mg of sodium is too little for substantial sweat replacement. No supporting electrolyte system is listed, so the product fits protein nutrition better than hydration.

The lean whey profile is useful for routine protein intake, though inactive ingredients are not supplied. The serving profile also offers attractive value for the protein delivered.

Who is it for
  • A lean everyday protein serving
  • People adding protein to meals or snacks
  • People who prefer a measured powder serving
Best for
  • Daily protein intake
  • Low-fat protein shakes
  • Protein nutrition rather than electrolyte replacement

Pros

  • 24 g protein is a meaningful serving
  • 1.5 g fat and 3 g carbohydrate keep the macro profile focused
  • Strong value for the protein delivered

Cons

  • Too little sodium for demanding sweat replacement
  • Full inactive-ingredient details are not provided
  • Protein form and directions are not fully described

Warnings

  • The milk-derived protein is unsuitable for anyone with a milk-protein allergy.
  • The 110 mg sodium amount should not be relied on for heavy-sweat electrolyte replacement.
  • The supplied facts omit the complete inactive-ingredient list, so sweeteners, flavors, and other potential sensitivities cannot be assessed.

Nutrient quality

84 Highest impact

The protein amount is meaningful and the macronutrient profile is lean. Missing whey-source and amino-acid details limit certainty about form quality.

.

Ingredient transparency

72 High impact

Protein and basic nutrition amounts are clearly disclosed. The whey blend, flavoring system, additives, and complete use directions are not supplied.

.

Customer satisfaction

70 High impact

The supplied average rating is strong and supported by a substantial review pool. No review text is available to assess recurring complaints or firsthand taste, texture, or mixability.

.

Value for money

79 High impact

The full, lean protein serving broadly justifies the relative cost. The moderate serving cost supports good value for a full protein amount.

The sodium amount is too low for demanding sweat replacement, so the powder is poorly aligned with this collection. No potassium, magnesium, trace minerals, or buffering compounds are listed, and the sodium source is undisclosed. Serving value is reasonable, but the supplied facts do not establish additive purity.
