Review: Genuine product - I was skeptical after reading some of the reviews saying it's a fake product but ordered it anyway. The seller is genuine and when it was delivered the weight was correct, I checked the unique code on authentication available on ON's website it checks out correct and there's still seal on which you'll have to open it in order to use it. Got it for 10899 ordered in june 2021 Review: Whey may be alright, but tastes a bit odd - ON Gold is supposed to be one of the best whey product on the market. I may be so. I used myprotein for over a year, but wanted to try out something different. This discount deal came by. The protein may be doing what it is supposed to do. No bloating or any adverse reaction in the past month that I started this ON tub. The milkshake is thicker than I am used to. This is vanilla flavor. But there is definite artificial taste to it, slight bitterness. I don't think I will order vanilla again after I finish this 4kg tub. ## Features - Gold Standard 100% Whey Blend – 24g blended protein consisting of whey protein isolate, whey protein concentrate, and whey peptides to support lean muscle mass – they don't call it the Gold Standard of standard for nothing - What Does It Have - 5 grams of naturally occurring BCAAs and over 4 grams of glutamine and glutamic acid in each serving ‚which helps to build lean and strong muscles; Gluten Free - When To Use - Great before or after exercise, between meals, with a meal, or any time of day where you need extra protein in your nutrition - Banned Substance Tested – standard control measures so you feel comfortable and safe consuming the product - Size/Flavours - Pick your size from 1, 2, 5, and 10 pound options available and 10 Delicious Flavours to chose from - Instantized – improves mixability to prevent lumps and clumps - How To Use - Add 1 scoop in 180-200 ml water for best results and have twice a day - Most awarded, whey protein powder on the planet.

This is like manna from heaven. In fact, once I started using this, I quit not only working out and still gained muscle mass. I also quit my job and now devote my time to sitting on the couch and playing on the Xbox. And I'm still gaining muscle, about 5 pounds a week. I won a $100,000 scratcher last month the money from which I'm using to find a cure for cancer. I'm just about there ! **Q: Body Fortress Super Advanced has 30 gr protein per scoop, and ON has 24 gr. what's the difference?** A: ON Gold Standard has a 31g serving size, and Body Fortress Super Advanced Isolate has a 38g serving size. Larger serving size = more protein. It's really as simple as that. It's got nothing to do with the "bro science" in some of the answers. To be sure, if you convert them to the same 31 gram serving size, then ON has 24 grams of protein, and Body Fortress has 24.5 grams of protein. Companies play around with the serving sizes so they can put "60 grams of protein!!!!!!" in the advertising, but if you do the math, then it's usually about the same amount. **Q: Will consuming more whey (protein) help my rotator cuff tear heal?** A: There is NO healing of a rotator cuff tear...none! This has to be surgically repaired. IF you're lucky, you may be able to have an endoscopic repair which takes much less time to recover. Otherwise, you will have to have a "full Open" repair which is much more involved and takes longer to heal. Trust me, I have been there...3 times all coming from very heavy benches and they were all "full open repairs." The first one I had was only a 1 centimeter tear and it never healed in 3 years. IF you have a true torn rotator cuff, NOTHING, (except surgery), will correct the problem. ANYBODY who tells you they had one and they did this and that and it finally healed up didn't have a tear to begin with. More likely just a bad strain or severe inflammation from overworking the deltoid area. And be prepared for lots of rehab work and it will take you from 9-12 months to get back to where you were before the tear. **Q: Is there a reason why the 5 lb is so much thicker than the 2 lb? i tried the 2 lb, liked it, and order 5...outside of jug seems the same...** A: Get something like an "AMIR 500g/0.01g Digital Kitchen Scale". They're twelve bucks & quite accurate. I suspect the powder is compressed, making the scoops a bit heavy. Measuring by weight instead of volume should provide more consistent results. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Genuine product *by R***A on 6 June 2021* I was skeptical after reading some of the reviews saying it's a fake product but ordered it anyway.

I may be so. I used myprotein for over a year, but wanted to try out something different. This discount deal came by. The protein may be doing what it is supposed to do. No bloating or any adverse reaction in the past month that I started this ON tub. The milkshake is thicker than I am used to. This is vanilla flavor.

I don't think I will order vanilla again after I finish this 4kg tub. ### ⭐ Not a genuine product *by A***R on 27 November 2024* Been buying optimum nutrition for 4 years now and have not came across the product like this. Sticker is not properly adhered to the bucket. No seal of original product which came with every single one of the product so far. The product wont mix in water properly and doesnt taste right. Also, ordered vanilla ice cream and received double rich chocolate and it tastes like french vanilla. ## Frequently Bought Together - Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard 100% Whey Protein Powder, Vanilla Ice Cream, 10 Pound (Packaging May Vary) - Optimum Nutrition Micronized Creatine Monohydrate Powder, Unflavored, 120 Servings, 600 Grams (Packaging May Vary) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/80091857-on-gold-standard-100-whey-protein-powder-vanilla-ice-cream](https://www.desertcart.us/products/80091857-on-gold-standard-100-whey-protein-powder-vanilla-ice-cream) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
