MusclePharm Combat Protein Powder, 5 Protein Blend, Banana Cream, 4 Pounds, 54 Servings

I recently wanted to try a new protein powder so I switched from ON Gold Standard Whey to this MP Combat. At first I was really excited because its a protein blend and the benefits that go with that. However, my stomach can not handle this protein powder. I am not lactose intolerant and I have no known food allergies so it must be the digestive enzymes that are in this product. I get severely bloated, gassy and most recently diarrhea which has led me to stop using Combat. I'm going to try another blend and see how that goes. Really wish this product worked for me. I know a lot of my friends have no issues with it.

I bought this hoping it would help git dem gainz, as they say. I'm still weak but the taste is great. It's probably not the Gain Dust's fault - I probably just need to work harder. The thing about reviewing this that's tough though (like, mentally - not in a physical kind of way), is that I don't really have a good way to verify the contents. I mean, I'm not like going to open up a chemistry lab and check the ratios of the protein types, or measure the rate at which the stuff is metabolized in some surrogate material. So, I'm left with two things I can actually review: (1) taste, and (b) mixability. It tastes great and mixes in well when I use it with a mixer bottle. I suppose I'll just trust that it contains what they say it does.

As an athlete, I have been taking protein supplements off and on for 15 years. I have tried everything from top shelf whey isolate powders to cheap blends with lots of sugar. I have also taken Casein supplements on their own depending on what my goals are at the time. I have had experience with the good, the bad, the expensive, the cheap, the delicious, the disgusting, and everything in between.When it comes to this product, the blend/ratio of whey, casein, and egg proteins are very similar to that of the more expensive blends. I'm generally not too picky when it comes to flavors, but this protein tastes great; like a post training desert! I just mix it with water in my shaker bottle and thats it. The value is outstanding when comparing the price per serving size with that of the competition. I actually bought this when it had a coupon available as well so it ended up being the cheapest option. Overall, this protein is a perfect option for those who want to supplement their normal protein intake and athletes who are looking for pre/post/intra workout support. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because they don't tell you exactly how many grams of each protein you get per serving.

Really MusclePharm, to make the product taste sweeter you add acesulfame potassium which is a carcinogen with multiple negative side effects. Nothing like ingesting a product for health unknowingly its detrimental to your health. Ridiculous.

I read the reviews and I searched for a protein powder that has it all...whey, casein, low to no sugar, and nice tasting... well I'm here to tell you the cookies and cream is fantastic, mix with half almond milk and half water, it's really, really good!!! I'm writing this review so you'll know to make the right choice and for the price per pound it's inexpensive for 4 pounds...I searched and compared all night; I've bought their products in the past, and they have great products!!!

I’ve tried a good amount of different protein brands/flavors/types. Optimum Nutrition used to be my go-to for a couple years, but they kept having the lawsuits where they’d be found time and time again falsely advertising how much protein they actually put in their blend.Rightfully fed up with them, I started shopping around. I’ve tried ISO100, NitroTech, Cellucor, RedLine, and even cheap bargain BOGO stuff from SuppHunt. I finally found a good deal on the MusclePharm Combat cookies and cream protein.First time I had it, I genuinely thought there was nothing like it. It’s taste was so good, I thought it had to be unhealthy. It kind of reminds me of the taste of an Oreo McFlurry from McDonalds. Nothing healthy on the market like this stuff.The cool part is the five different types of protein in each serving make it good for those of us that like or want to have our post workout intake and pre-bed intake be from the same stuff. It felt good for muscle recovery, and seemed to work very well as a protein source.Snag it while you can. This stuff has completely replaced other brands. Flavor for Cookies and cream has to be 9.5/10. The only flavor from muscle pharm I don’t care for is chocolate milk. Peanut butter cup is also pretty decent.

Makes your digestive system smell horrible. So bad that after a few uses I stopped using it. However if you are gonna keeep using it Add a banana to it and it tastes AMAZINGLY good.

I didn't actually like the cookies and cream taste because it was a bit too sweet, but I kind of got used to it by the end, so this chocolate flavor is awesome. (Probably would have been too sweet as well if I hadn't gotten used to the cookies and cream first.) Works well, tastes good, also helps with the soreness in conjunction with the amino's I take. I like to use it post workout before bed, because it actually fills you up quite a bit if you take it during the day, and I need to eat a lot of calories to bulk. Would probably be good during the day for people who need to limit their calories. All in all, will probably keep using this, might try the peanut butter chocolate flavor.

Ok well I'm not one of your gym bunny types so I can't tell you what everything does but I can speak about what it has done to me. I train 3 times a week with a HIT training routine. Previously I have used different brands which did nothing for me. I was using maximuscle (now maxinutrition) cyclone shake before but noticed everytime I took it my pee became almost fluorescent yellow and post workout I felt nothing different.I decided to give this one a try. Amazing. Pee is normal in color, flavour is good and I have noticed less muscle pain the next day (even though my intensity has greatly increased) actually all muscle pain has vanished. The tub is a good size and has lasted a while even with the 2scoops daily. Another important thing is that this shake mixes well, I have never experienced any graininess at all. I will definitely stick with this one for a while....The only negative I would say is the price but you pay for what you get.

every single combat powder flavours ive tried are better than any brand i have tried on the market! where as other brands i sometimes strugle to finish this one tastes like a guilty pleasure from mcdonalds or something. i rate this higher than anything ive had before for recovery times, taste and geral value for money.

Excellent flavour and easy mixing. Recommend a sweetener for even better taste. High quality protein mix.Very good value for money as it contains lots of servings...up to 3 months.

Very tasty protein powder. Easy to mix and was a good price on amazon. Didn’t notice much muscle gain, although I think it helped with the ache and soreness post workout.

One of the best!!
