I think this is my first time leaving a review in Amazon despite I am buying products from Amazon at least 3~4 products per week. For a quick note regarding my physical appearance, back in 7 years ago I was extremely overweight, started about 30% body fat, 38inch pants size, and even had a Gout... I have been working out for almost more than 7 years and currently maintaining 10%~15% body fat. I am NOT a body builder nor heavy lifter at gym. I am just an electrical engineer going to gym/outdoor activities 5 times a week. My main workout routine is basically to maintain my body weight, muslce, and body fat as consistent as possible. So far I have tried Myotein, GNC AMP, Gold's Gym Protein Powder (they stated FDA approved). This is my first time I tried BSN's brand and consuming for more than a month, I got to say I love the taste out of all the protein powder I tried. To be honest I am NOT an expert. I do NOT know all the specific ingredients and how they benefit to my body. Two things I love about this product compared to other protein powder (Myotein, GNC AMP, and Gold's Gym Protein Powder) are, 1. The taste (I had Chocolate Milkshake). I do not taste Aspartame and today I just verified from the label that there is not. 2. The result. Since spring and summer is coming up, I am beginning my strict diet, trying to go down about 9~10% body fat from 15%~16% body fat. Along with my diet I have been drinking BSN Protein Powder and I am seeing better results (less muscle pain and faster recovery). Overall, I prefer this Protein Powder over all the protein powder I have bought. I honestly liked Gold's Gym Protein Powder but they are $20 more expensive than this product
