Suggested Use: To encourage a positive nitrogen balance, consume approximately 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight per day from a combination of high protein foods and supplemets. For even better results, consume your daily protein allotment over 4-6 small meals spread evenly throughout the day.
Example: 180lb x 1g protein/lb body weight=180g day
180g ÷ 6 small meals = 30 g protein/meal
Each serving of ON 100% Whey Gold Standard™ provides 24 grams of protein.

Whey Protein
Whey Protein- Reliable and relatively consistent scientific data showing a substantial health benefit.
- Contradictory, insufficient, or preliminary studies suggesting a health benefit or minimal health benefit.
- For an herb, supported by traditional use but minimal or no scientific evidence. For a supplement, little scientific support.
Our proprietary "Star-Rating" system was developed to help you easily understand the amount of scientific support behind each supplement in relation to a specific health condition. While there is no way to predict whether a vitamin, mineral, or herb will successfully treat or prevent associated health conditions, our unique ratings tell you how well these supplements are understood by the medical community, and whether studies have found them to be effective for other people.
For over a decade, our team has combed through thousands of research articles published in reputable journals. To help you make educated decisions, and to better understand controversial or confusing supplements, our medical experts have digested the science into these three easy-to-follow ratings. We hope this provides you with a helpful resource to make informed decisions towards your health and well-being.

Comments about Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Gold Standard™ - Banana:
the taste is great. especially considering how little fat and sugar are in it. plus it's a great value (especially when on sale) for such a large quantity. it lasts for quite a while. since switching from muscle milk, i've gained a decentamount of muscle and trimmed down as well. it's also nice that the serving size is only one scoop at a time-rather than multiple scoops with othe brands.
