BSN SYNTHA-6 Protein Powder
by BSN
"The best-tasting protein powder in the industry — 22g multi-source protein that tastes like a milkshake"
Overview
BSN SYNTHA-6 is widely regarded as the best-tasting protein powder ever made. The formula uses a multi-source protein matrix (whey concentrate, whey isolate, casein, micellar casein, egg albumin, and milk protein isolate) that provides both fast and slow-digesting proteins for sustained amino acid release. Each serving provides 22g of protein with 5g fiber and 200 calories. The higher calorie and fat content compared to pure isolates is what gives SYNTHA-6 its legendary milkshake-like taste and texture. Chocolate Milkshake and Vanilla Ice Cream flavors are industry benchmarks for taste.

Our Verdict
