The Gold Standard Protein Shake is Optimum Nutrition’s alternative, on-the-go version of its legendary protein powder, 100% Gold Standard Whey, and it certainly gets the job done. The product provides a quick, convenient, and lean source of protein that tastes great and comes with that signature Gold Standard quality. The legacy brand brought the beverage to market a few years back in two flavors, Chocolate and Vanilla, each packing 24g of protein per serving, only a gram of sugar, and 130 to 140 calories.
Again, Optimum Nutrition’s Gold Standard Protein Shake does all it needs for a protein RTD and even goes a bit beyond tasting great and providing a reliable source of protein, as it is reinforced with a variety of vitamins and minerals. We’ve got the beverage in the news today as a fresh new taste has hit the menu for the product. We’re not sure when exactly it came out, but it is recent, and it adds a touch of sweetness to the menu, with a sweet Strawberry joining the original and traditional pair of Chocolate and Vanilla.
