[size=+2]Non-Sponsored Review of Optimum Nutrition NitroCore 24[/size]
Taste: I was thoroughly impressed with the taste, especially since it was a strawberry protein. I'm usually not a big fan of strawberry, but NitroCore tasted good.
Texture: The texture was slightly thick when mixed with 6 oz. of water.
Mixability: I used a Blender Bottle to mix it, and it only took about 10 seconds of shaking to be completely dissolved. No problems, it was completely smooth without any clumps.
Cost: At about $1 per serving for the various types of protein you are receiving I would have to rate it slightly above average in affordability.
Profile:
10 blends of protein is very unique and I thought it was a pretty good profile considering the fast, intermediate, and slow release could prove beneficial for a MRP, PWO, Pre-bed, or anytime really it's a very versatile blend.
* FASTER: Hydrolyzed Whey Peptides, Ion-Exchange Whey Protein Isolate, Cross-Flow Microfiltered Whey Protein Isolate, Ultrafiltered Whey Protein Concentrate, Glutamine Peptides
* INTERMEDIATE: Egg Albumen, Milk Protein Isolate, Ultrafiltered Milk Protein Concentrate
* SLOWER: Micellar Casein, Calcium Caseinate
Satiety: I had to use this in place of breakfast today (not something I usually do) because I was in a hurry. Satiety lasted about 3 hours which is pretty good for a shake, so I'd rate it above average. Lasted about the same time a small meal would have.
