After trying a few I would say Myprotein.
Their whey protein is great tasting, smooth and cheapest in the UK and can get samples off their outlet on eBay.
Also usually discount codes knocking about on the web.
Hope this helps, best of luck with your search0 -
It depends on your goals.
They really range on both qty of Protien, Sugar (carbs), and calories.
You need to take the time to do some homework on the labels and see what ones fit into your intake goals.0 -
I use Vitasport Pro7 - Vanilla Protein Shake. The nutritional values are in the myfitnesspal database. Here is a link to the product site: http://vitasport.net/vitasport/products/protein/pro7ein-synthesis
Here is the information from that site.
Why 7 forms of protein? Why not 8, 9, 10 or more?
When it comes to product development and protein formulation, more forms of protein is not necessarily better. Some companies may attempt to create the allusion of a better protein supplement by using 8, 9, 10 or more forms of protein in order to fool the consumer. Don't buy it! If that was the case, we wouldn't have stopped at 7. Vitasport™ has selected 7 of the most bio-available and effective forms of protein available and packed it into 34 grams per scoop! Adding additional forms of protein in an attempt to create an "allusion" of a superior product would only diminish the effectiveness of PRO7EIN Synthesis™!†
PRO7EIN Synthesis™ is the most advanced, delicious, highly effective, sustained-release protein supplement available today consisting of 7 of the most effective protein types in their purest form: WPI Protein Complex (Cross-Flow Microfiltered Whey Protein Isolate, Hydrolyzed Whey Protein Isolate), WPC5 Protein Complex™ (Whey Protein Concentrate, Hydrolyzed Casein, Potassium Caseinate, Micellar Casein, Egg Albumin). PRO7EIN Synthesis™ makes it easier than ever to consume the proper amount of protein and perfect combination of protein sources needed to capitalize on lean muscle development, faster recovery and decreased body fat as each type of protein is broken down and absorbed at a different rate, allowing your body to utilize the benefits of protein over an extended period of time of up to 8 hours. PRO7EIN Synthesis™ is also enriched with BCAAs, N-Acetyl-L-Glutamine and all the Essential Amino Acids to aid in muscle recovery and prevent the breakdown of lean muscle. In addition, Colostrum has been added to this unmatched formula to assist in the building of lean muscle. Colostrum contains insulin like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) which is critical for stimulating muscle growth and im- munoglobulins, which are involved in immune functions. PRO7EIN Synthesis™ can be utilized as a convenient meal replacement, protein-enhanced snack between meals, a post-workout shake as well as a pre-bedtime shake to help with muscle recovery while you sleep.†
The Addition of Aminogen® Aminogen,® a vital ingredient in high-quality protein supplements, is clinically proven (Journal of The International Society of Sports Nutrition) to increase the BCAAs from your protein by over 250%, raise your Amino Acid levels by over 100% and boost your Nitrogen Retention levels by an incredible 32% to dramatically stimulate protein synthesis and muscle growth. Aminogen® is a patented, Bio-Active Enzyme System which breaks down protein and greatly improves amino acid absorption which equates to greater results. A natural, plant-derived enzyme, Aminogen® is ideal for increasing lean body mass and strength and promoting deep muscle recovery. And Aminogen® does all this while supporting protein digestion. Bottom line: When it comes to digestive enzymes in a protein product, Aminogen® ranks at the top of the list.†
FACT: Consuming protein alone WILL NOT trigger lean muscle gains. It is how well your body absorbs and sustains protein that will determine whether you get the results that your muscles are starving for. Get more out of your protein with Aminogen®.†
