| | Description | Protein supplementation isn't just a good idea anymore, it has become an absolutely integral part of our basic nutritional patterns. More and more of us are finding what elite athletes and body builders have known for years - high quality protein supplementation is a must. After nearly thirty years of being intensely involved in protein supplementation, manufacturing, and distribution, CytoSport is extremely proud to present Complete Whey Protein, simply the highest quality, most complete, most digestible, easiest mixing, best tasting product the industry has ever seen.Never before has there been a product that helps you develop tight, toned muscle faster, at the same time improving and accelerating your ability to recover from intense training and workouts. Complete Whey Protein is naturally rich in glutamine and branched-chain amino acids (BCAA's), cysteine, minerals, lactalbumin, and lactoferrin, and has only trace amounts of lactose and fat. Complete Whey Protein is rich in nutrients which raise glutathione (the body's primary anti-oxidant) levels and enhance your immune system's ability to fight common infections.Late research has also shown that the exact whey fractions plentiful in Complete Whey Protein help increase IGF-1 (insulin-like growth factor) which enables your body to burn fat and increase lean muscle mass at the same time.The secret to enhanced muscle growth and improved protein synthesis is Complete Whey Protein's incorporation of very low, low, medium, and high molecular weight whey peptides. Short and long chains of amino acids bonded together by a selective hydrolysate process present the essential nutrient (nitrogen) in the most ideal condition to be absorbed and incorporated into the human metabolic process.InstaPro, New Protein Instantizing Process - After they got all the science right, CytoSport then turned its attention to solubility and taste. You will not believe the results. Complete Whey Protein dissolves ... |  |

The Rundown Dec 14, 2007
By Christopher Graber The Seller: All Star Health is great to deal with. My Brother-in-law and I have used them many times. They ship relatively quick (3-5 days). They always have competitive prices. Until they recently bumped their price on the 10lb container it was the cheapest buy on the net. Now 2 5lb containers are the cheapest way to go.
The Product: I have tried Vanilla and Cocoa. Per serving Vanilla has 18 grams to Cocoa's 16 grams of protein. Both Mix INCREDIBLY well. I have a shaker cup and do not use it with this stuff. I use a spoon. Thats it. Vanilla tastes really good. Compared to other brands this is the best vanilla I have had that is not loaded with fat and other junk. The Cocoa is my favorite. It was not at first, It is not Chocolate. It is Cocoa. There is a distinct difference. It came to be my favorite, however, when I warmed up the water in the microwave for about a minute and a half and then added the protein. It tastes just like hot chocolate and mixes even better in the hot water. So now every protein shake is like a large glass of hot cocoa, and when you live in Minnesota, thats a really great thing :). There are a bunch of good amino acids in all of these flavors. I really honestly have nothing bad to say about this product. The only annoyance is that it appears like everyone is steadily raising the price on this stuff. I purchased 10 lbs from one place online for $47 within the last year. The next time I went to the website it was $67. I went to all star with my last purchase and the 10lb tub was $51. Now it is in the 60's. Even at the price it is now, the product is all I buy as far as protein supplements go.
Summary: You will not be disappointed.

Dear God in Heaven it Tastes Horrible! Feb 16, 2011
By John W. Gilbert Ok...my rating of 4 stars instead of 5 is due only to the taste (I've tried the strawberry-banana). It does NOT taste good. I almost have to plug my nose to down a 5 oz glass of water mixed with 1 scoop. That being said, it is a good product. They haven't packed it full of sugars (to make taste better) or things you might not want (creatine). It does have the necessary ingredients you will need before and after any intense workout. So, my advice is mix it in a blender with a banana or some yogurt to ease the pain of downing this gruel! I had my wife try it as well......she laughed at me and would not take a 2nd sip. I'm sure a few people might like the taste, but I would suspect that some of the 'flattering' reviews of the taste you read on here are probably spam to get you to buy it. Anyways, it has what you need.....if u can get it down your throat!
Update: Gotten used to the taste. Find myself almost craving it before and after a good workout!
1 Year Update: Ok.. I was probably a little harsh in my title. When you get used to it, the taste isn't that bad. I wanted to give some help on how to mix it. Probably the best method would be to put it in a small blender (like a magic bullet) and do it that way. I did this a few times, but it takes time....you have to clean up your mess, etc. so I stopped because the 5 mins. it takes to clean everything is more hassle than it's worth. I had originally just put my one scoop in the glass filled with water and then mixed. It probably diluted 95-98% that way. However, the small globs that didn't/wouldn't dilute was a bit annoying. Here is a better method: put your scoop in the glass, have a dinner fork in the glass ready to mix it (not a spoon)-AS YOU ARE ADDING THE WATER stir vigorously with the fork until glass is full! Not sure why, but this will nearly fully mix the protein. I've also tried that method with a few other brands as well and it works great! Seems to work better when I use the water from my refridgerator (the jet spout) than slow moving tap water from your sink. GL

One of the better products out there... Dec 29, 2008
By Wally

I have used Complete Whey for over 10 years now... I am an avid cyclist and it's great for rebuilding/recovery after a hard training day or during a multi-stage race. I specifically prefer the Vanilla Bean flavor over the others. I mix it with 12 oz skim milk, a banana (potassium) and a 1/2 cup frozen blueberries (anti-oxidants), throw in a few ice cubes too. I also throw in a Centrum vitamin and a Joint Matrix supplement as needed. I've tried the majority of recovery supplements out there and this is the one that works best for me.

Best Whey Ever Jan 24, 2008
By Rhona A. Hanna

I've used a ton of protein powders over the years and this has to be one of the best ones I've tried. I'm in college, so I oftentimes don't have time to whip out a blender to make a full fledged shake--but this powder mixes easily (and really mixes, not that clumpy stuff you get with other powders) and tastes great. In fact, it tastes exactly like cold hot chocolate. It's really fantastic and just...unbeatable. I'd give it more stars if I could.

Awesome product Apr 03, 2010
By dmron I love this stuff. Take it in combination with a carb supplement (I use Carb Slam) before and after weight lifting, and the results are amazing.
Taking it before your workout helps you work out longer, and taking it after helps your muscles regenerate much faster. It almost completely eliminates any soreness you would normally get from lifting weights, and your muscles build up FAST.
The first couple of months I was lifting weights, I wasn't taking any supplements. I was trying to eat more natural protein but that was it. I was building muscle for sure but was always sore for a few days after lifting and after a couple months I felt like I completely plateaued.
Once I started taking this in combination with Carb Slam, my strength absolutely exploded and continues to consistently grow week after week, and I'm never ever sore. I cannot recommend it highly enough!
The only downside is it doesn't really taste that great. Muscle Milk tastes 50x better. I use Muscle Milk as well, but that's more of a meal replacement type thing than a pre/post workout supplement. (Read body building forums - almost everyone feels the same way).
It doesn't taste BAD but it's just not really that great. Hopefully they will improve it in the future, but even if they don't I will continue to use it because the results are phenomenal.
