BSN Syntha-6 Edge Nutrition
Whey Protein has the highest biological value of any protein and is one of the few protein sources with a higher biological value than egg protein. For many decades, egg was considered to be the best source of protein due to its high concentration of essential amino acids.
BSN Syntha-6 Edge contains plenty of whey protein, as well as some casein, creating an ultra premium protein blend. Casein is the other protein found in milk, apart from whey, and also offers excellent amino acid profile. Whey protein has been shown time and time again to trigger protein synthesis quite robustly, laying down new muscle tissue, perfect for healing and growing after a heavy gym session.
Fuel your muscles and explode your taste buds with Syntha-6 Edge. With a macronutrient profile that has removed excess fats and carbs, you can be sure that you’ve got a great tasting protein powder that will reward you any time of the day.
BSN Syntha-6 Edge Review
We thought these products were fantastic, and a great idea for anyone who knows just how delicious the standard Syntha-6 is, but needs something a bit leaner on calories. We found the flavours to be a little less intense than the standard Syntha-6, but this was to be expected due to the difference in calories between the 2 products.
BSN Syntha-6 Edge Vanilla was definitely a standout flavour that we really enjoyed, and still enjoy! It might even have a hint of butterscotch in with the gourmet vanilla flavour. Really tasty.
BSN Syntha-6 Edge Cookies and Cream is always nice for a change, however, all of their others flavours are awesome as well. Syntha-6 Edge is great in cold water, or if you can spare the extra calories, try it in full cream milk for a more robust flavour.
BSN Syntha-6 Edge vs Isolate
There is only a 13 Calorie difference per serve between these two products. BSN Syntha-6 Isolate contains 2 grams less fat per serve, and 1 gram less of carbohydrates, which is not a great disparity. The Isolate product contains some milk protein isolate, so it is not a pure whey protein isolate product.
In fact, both of these products contain whey and casein as their sole protein sources. So there is not as much difference between the two as we would think. If you’re counting every calorie on a strict diet, then Isolate is probably the way to go. Otherwise, Syntha-6 Edge is better priced and has a great range of flavours to choose from.
Is BSN Syntha-6 Edge Gluten free?
This product does not state “Gluten Free” on the packaging. If you suffer with non-coeliac's gluten sensitivity or coeliac disease you should be cautious, as it may contain traces of gluten.
