Nutritionists commonly refer to eggs as the "golden standard" for protein quality. Eggs contain all eight essential amino acids (the type that your body cannot make from other substances) and very high levels of total amino acids - especially important sulfur-containing aminos. Eggs are also readily digested and absorbed. As a lactose-free protein source, eggs are often more tolerable to people who have trouble with dairy foods. For these and other reasons, eggs have been a staple of bodybuilder's diets since the beginning of the sport.

Each scoop of Gold Standard 100% Egg packs as contains the nutritional equivalent of seven egg whites with just 2-44 grams of carbs (depending on flavor). It provides a complete profile of essential Amino Acids, Branched Chain Amino Acids and Glutamic Acid.

Muscle gain


Muscle gain		.I gained strength and mass with it.It's pretty unbelievable
Muscle gain		but I gained 9Kgs with this 2lb box.
Strength		.I gained strength and mass with it.It's pretty unbelievable


Taste		but certainly not for the taste.
Taste		Literally tastes like dog biscuits (yes, I've tried them).


Taste		Taste is tolerable;
Taste		but with any egg protein, it has to be loaded with fillers and sugar to taste better, so I'd rather have the pure stuff and gulp it down.


Muscle gain		I really like this egg protein it would be a 10 rating if it came in a larger size, 2lbs goes too fast!


Taste		Taste-wise, it was a very good vanilla; definitely more of a custard taste than other plain vanilla powders.
Value for money		but it is pricey for what it is.


Taste		but if you're looking for a protein powder that has little to no fat, 0% sugars, good taste and the protein you need to heal up after your workouts and take the edge off your hunger, then I'd recommend this, hands down!
Taste		The taste isn't a Ben & Jerry's ice cream equivalent
Recovery ability		but if you're looking for a protein powder that has little to no fat, 0% sugars, good taste and the protein you need to heal up after your workouts and take the edge off your hunger, then I'd recommend this, hands down!
Recovery ability		There are no mass gaining qualities to this other than the fact that the protein is lean, and enough for you to heal and hit the gym with real progression.


Taste		The taste is pretty decent...
Value for money		The price isn't bad and it is VERY easy on my stomach.


Taste		Seems that it's the only pure protein powder on the market a supertaster can stand.
Taste		Use water for the vanilla version or milk for chocolate... quite delicious both!


Taste		FYI - It tastes better cold!
Mixes well		It's easily digestible, mixes well, even without a shaker cup and is quickly bio-available and provides all the types/sources of protein.

Gas or bloating	I was having serious trouble digesting milk based products with the typical abdominal bloating and gas so I switched to soy protein and didn't see any improvements either.


Taste		I enjoy the taste of it, my buddy doesn't...he says there is a bad after taste.
Ingredient profile		The label doesn't lie, this protein shake doesn't destroy my stomach like the others I have tried (Myofusion, Gold standard whey, syntha 6, and even casein)So if your stomach can't handle the others; I would definitely give this a shot.


Physical energy		+ Mixed easily Saw decent gains durring usage Gave me tuns of energy - Increase in BF% Slight bloating


Taste		It has a great flavor, blends easily and is super easy on my stomach...and of course gives me the protein I need.


Taste		Very good quality protein with the worst taste you can ever find.
Taste		I had to add two sachet of splinda to hide the Salty and Eggy taste.
Taste		Protein shakes are suppose to be delicious since they are considers as meals.
Taste		I wouldn't complain about the taste if it was a pre-workout drink


Taste		the taste is HORRIBLE... the other optimum products like Whey taste great, how is that this one taste so bad and salty!?


Texture		I use it in my post-workout and meal replacement protein smoothies.
Taste		Great taste and mouth feel.


Taste		Like most reviewers have said, the powder has a strong salty smell to it and unfortunately the taste is even worse.
Taste		but I had to toss this container as just the smell of the powder reminded me of the horrible taste.
