#8 BSN Syntha 6
Labelled as “an ultra-premium lean muscle protein powder,” the Syntha 6 is BSN’s top-selling product. The protein supplement works like any other supplement aiding in muscle growth and synthesis. Moreover, the supplement tastes great.
Hands down, this is the best-tasting supplement in the fitness industry. The flavour profile of the Syntha 6 is unmatched and even beats the popular Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Gold Standard. The taste comes at a price, though. The Syntha 6 has artificial sweeteners along with other ingredients such soy, wheat, and corn.
Each scoop has around 22 grams of protein along with 10 grams of essential amino acids and fatty acids. The product has a balanced protein blend, which includes whey and casein for variable absorption. Five grams of fibre in the mixture makes it a multi-functional supplement.
However, the supplement has high amounts of fat and carbs (6 grams and over 10 grams respectively). A single serve gives around 200 calories of energy and this puts the product at the pointy end of the spectrum.
Optimal usage:
- One scoop with 150 ml of cold water or any beverage.
- Post-workout recovery shake or a protein supplement.
