This is a review for Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Gold Standard, the protein was delicious, but it comes with artificial sweeteners. to read more click here

Protein is great taste (I have tried both the Chocolate and Strawberry twice mixed with Vanilla Yogurt or Milk). They seem to give any suitable label, I quickly see the results. To that I agree to say that this is the only one the best packaging protein.

Ingredients label

My complaint is that this product comes with artificial sweeteners (Sucralose aka "Splenda" for Strawberry, Acesulfame Potassium aka "Sweet One" for Double-Rich-Chocolate). Amazon does not mention this and not spelled out on the container itself (only listed under ingredients with their chemical names).

I am concerned because so far no long term human studies conducted to determine the potential health effects of Splenda in humans. Until long-term human studies are done, no one will know for sure whether Splenda is really safe or not safe for humans to eat. Unfortunately, that is used in protein powder, a person tends to eat quite a lot of this stuff (3-4 servings a day for me). They have a Natural Whey product with no artificial sweeteners that I think I will switch to (contains natural fructose instead).

For more complete product information and reviews that are still original, I invite you to look directly at amazon.com
