Review on πŸͺ MuscleTech Nitro-Tech Whey Gold Cookies and Cream Protein Powder - 5.5 lbs (76 Servings): Ideal Protein Supplement for Women & Men by Megan Rogers

Great as a meal replacement/smoothie

We drink protein powder daily as both a meal replacement and post-workout recovery drink. We find Nitro Tech Whey Gold works well for us as a meal replacement or smoothie concoction as it has a medium thickness. We don't use this powder as a post-workout drink as we prefer our post-workout drinks to be a bit thinner so they're quicker and easier to swallow. ends up in small clumps even with fairly thorough shaking. But it works great with a mixer. So another point towards kitchen meals, not drinks on the go. Nitro Tech Whey Gold contains both whey peptides and isolates. This is another reason why we prefer it as a meal or shake replacement. We usually only prefer post-workout isolates. French vanilla cream is quite light in strength. It also has a somewhat "chemical" taste. It's tolerable but not as cloying as some other brands. However, if we make it into a smoothie and add some fruit or berries, it becomes the perfect base for the entire flavor profile. so you know you are getting the real deal. On the other hand, some of the other protein drinks we use are not guaranteed to be (accidentally) positive on the various drug tests that are done in the sports world. There is no such statement in this cocktail. Maybe they're quite good and don't cause any problems, but it would be nice if they guaranteed it on the label. Overall we love it and use it fairly regularly as a meal or smoothie replacement.
