EAS is one of the more subtly marketed brands we have come across, though they have a huge line up of supplements available. Today we are looking at their 100% Whey product that certainly appears to be exceptionally cheap. Inexpensive often denotes low value ingredients and inefficient protein content, but we will take a closer look and see if this is really the case.
We grabbed a 5 pound tub of their chocolate flavour because we tend to prefer this flavor and its normally the top seller.

MIXABILITY - How can i use it?
Mixability with this product was excellent and took absolutely no time at all in milk or water! Mixing gave us a smooth texture with no clumps at all.
TASTE - What's it taste like?
We tried the Chocolate, but there really are not many flavors to choose from. EAS only make Chocolate, Strawberry and Vanilla. When mixed with milk the chocolate flavor was mild but pleasant without being too sweet, however it was also unremarkable. In water it was a bit weak and while not totally unpleasant, we can think of far better tasting products if mixing with water is your aim.
OUR VERDICT
This product is very cheap and largely this is due to the cheaper whey concentrate included as the protein component. Given its lower quality protein component, it performs better than we expected with quite low fat and carbs. If you're looking for a budget option, are mixing with milk and don't mind the few artificial additives, then this may be an option for you.
However, we would recommend taking a closer look at Optimum Nutrition's Gold Standard. It provides a better quality protein that we believe offers better value as a budget option as well as better flavors. If you're an athlete then we would suggest this is not the protein supplement for you and to consider a product such as ISOPURE's Low Carb/Zero Carb.
