Platinum Hydrowhey is the fastest, purest, most advanced whey protein we've ever developed. In a word: excellence. By hydrolyzing the protein in this premium formula we've created our fastest-acting whey protein yet. Hydrolyzing breaks larger proteins down into smaller pieces that are able to get into your system rapidly, enabling your muscles to start rebuilding quickly. For added effectiveness, we've also enhanced this revolutionary formula with digestive enzymes and micronized branched chain amino acids (BCAAs). In addition to being fast, Platinum Hydrowhey is also ultra-pure. That's because it's made entirely with hydrolyzed whey protein isolates. So there's no excess fat, cholesterol, or lactose to slow down your progress.

Recovery ability		ok this is a good recovery protein that mix realy well
Value for money		but the tast and and the price will make me swich for Optimum Gold Standard


Mixes well		Dissolves very well; no clumps or anything so far.


Texture		the consistency was too thin and it diminished the flavor.
Texture		While the consistency was much better,
Taste		Unfortunately, the Cookies & Cream flavor left something to be desired.
Taste		the consistency was too thin and it diminished the flavor.
Taste		the flavor did not improve much.
Taste		but unfortunately I did not like the Cookies & Cream flavor at all.
Taste		I use Gaspari MyoFusion Cookies & Cream and the flavor is much better than the ON Hydrowhey.
Taste		I would not recommend purchasing the Hydrowhey Cookies & Cream flavor,
Taste		but I would definitely recommend another flavor of Hydrowhey such as chocolate, because ON is known for their quality supplements.


Taste		Good tasting chocolate shake.
Taste		My second favourite so far.Tastes good with milk, and well not so good with water.
Value for money		A bit on the expensive side,


Muscle gain		Tastes amazing, and i really noticed quite a bit of muscle increase.
Taste		Tastes amazing, and i really noticed quite a bit of muscle increase.


Texture		but wasn't real thin either so it made for a good shake all around.
Taste		It mixed really good in each of the items I mixed it with, in the liquid it left small little chocolate bits floating in the shake that made for a yummy treat.
Taste		I did feel the creamy taste was missing in water
Taste		but the taste.
Taste		but that's more of an opinion and not a knock on the taste of the product.
Mixes well		It mixed really good in each of the items I mixed it with, in the liquid it left small little chocolate bits floating in the shake that made for a yummy treat.
Mixes well		Overall this product mixed fantastic in everything I tried it in without leaving any clumps foam etc.wasn't the best I have ever had


Taste		Just wish they told us the % of hydrolysis as that makes quite a difference... Tried the cookies and cream flavor.
Taste		The liquid tasted more like French Vanilla, which I like anyway :p Overall, if it fits your macros, you like the taste, and you can afford it, it's a good protein supplement!
Ingredient profile		I like the profile of this supplement.


Taste		Personally, I did not care for this flavor,
Taste		but I found that it tasted better with a little more water.
Taste		I have been told by others that they love the flavor,
Taste		but I did not care for the cookies and cream flavor.
Ingredient profile		The protein has a good profile, and mixed very easily for me.


Taste		The new cookies and cream flavor was delicious when mixed with milk the mixing was good and it was also very easy on my stomach and easy to digest.
Mixes well		The new cookies and cream flavor was delicious when mixed with milk the mixing was good and it was also very easy on my stomach and easy to digest.


Taste		I see many complaining about the taste.
Taste		I thought the taste was just fine.
Taste		It's not a real strong taste,
Mixes well		One other thing I would comment on is mixability.
Mixes well		It mixes effortlessly!
Ingredient profile		It's profile is outstanding - 30g of protein at only 140 calories.


Texture		Hydrowhey is probably one of the best mixing proteins to this date with great texture also!
Taste		Loved the taste and the high quality protein!


Muscle gain		I used it for the last six months and I gain 20 pounds of muscle with this baby.
Taste		The chocolate flavor is DELICIOUS!
Mixes well		It mixes very well in a blender bottle and I take it before and after my workouts.


Texture		but that's understandable Texture - 10/10 Texture is good, nice a fluffy.
Taste		Taste - 10/10 Cookies and cream is so delicious, I could sip this all day.
Taste		Tastes exactly like what you would expect.
Taste		Overall - 9.6/10 Great product if your main concern is just getting protein and an amazing taste, very low fat and carbs in this product, and not too much of anything else, some vitamins and BCAAs, very simple.
Mixes well		Mixability - 9/10 Mixed in my shaker cup, was great, no foam no chunks left, just some black spots from the cookies


Taste		Compare with Pro Complex,it tastes good,effects good to me.


Taste		Both times I was disappointed in the taste.
Taste		Secondly it didn't really taste much like Cookies & Cream and had a strange aftertaste.
Taste		but I wish the taste was better.
Mixes well		Mixes great without clumping or not dissolving properly.


Texture		Texture: 10/10 great texture, very fine and fluffy!
Taste		Taste: 8/10 This tasted pretty good, actually had some pieces of Oreo cookies in it!
Mixes well		mix ability: 8/10 Mixes well because of the hydrolysis factor!


Taste		This product mixes perfect and tastes the same!:)
Mixes well		This product mixes perfect and tastes the same!:)


Taste		but stay away from the Strawberry flavor of Hydrowhey, Optimum for some reason has
Taste		yet to perfect the art of the difficult Strawberry flavoring,
Taste		Also, Optimum has just released a Cookies and Cream flavor, which I have heard is amazing
Value for money		What Optimum Nutrition has done here is set the bar so far above the competition that it is going to take a long time before someone can out-do them in terms of the nutritional value of a protein powder.
Value for money		Next, we have Cellulase, which is an enzyme that really has no nutritional value to the body, in fact it seems to cause more bad than good.
Ingredient profile		The next ingredient on the label is Potassium Chloride, which is a natural salt that is important to the heart.
Ingredient profile		Next on the label is Acesulfame Potassium, which is a calorie free artificial sweetener.
Ingredient profile		And lastly, the final ingredient on the label is Lipase, which is an enzyme that helps the body break down fats.
Ingredient profile		After going over every single ingredient on this label there is not one single ingredient that worries me.
Ingredient profile		Yes, if you did read this thoroughly you would also see that Platinum Hydrowhey does in fact have Maltodextrin on the label.
Ingredient profile		But if you read on, that entire blend of ingredients only makes up for less than 1.5% of all the ingredients on the label, and Platinum Hydrowhey only has 2 grams of carbohydrates per serving, so nothing to worry about there.


Muscle gain		I gained 4 pounds in a little over 2 weeks.
Taste		If your skeptical on which flavor to try, get the supercharged strawberry.
Taste		The taste is amazing in both water and milk.
Taste		Taste like Nesquik!
