Dymatize ISO100 Whey Protein Powder Isolate, Gourmet Vanilla, 25g of Protein, 5.5g BCAAs, Less Than 120 Cal., Gluten Free, 1g Fat, 1g Sugar, 2g Carb (20 Servings)

Not all whey protein is created equal. Some are too heavy, too sweet, or hard on the stomach. The Dymatize ISO100 Whey Protein Powder (Vanilla, 5 lb) stands out because it delivers exactly what performance-focused users want: fast digestion, clean taste, and reliable mixability. This isn’t a “dessert shake” protein — it’s a functional, high-quality isolate that fits easily into a serious training routine. ⸻ ✅ Pros 1) Hydrolyzed whey isolate = fast absorption ISO100 is made from hydrolyzed 100% whey isolate, which means: • very low fat • very low carbs • easy digestion • quick post-workout absorption It feels light and efficient, especially after hard training sessions. 2) 25g of protein per serving A clean, solid protein dose that supports recovery without unnecessary extras. Perfect for post-workout shakes or as a simple protein boost during the day. 3) Mixes extremely well This is one of its biggest strengths. It dissolves quickly in water or milk with: • minimal clumping • smooth texture • no gritty aftertaste Even with just a shaker bottle, it blends easily. 4) Vanilla flavor is balanced The Vanilla flavor is: • not overly sweet • not artificial-tasting • easy to drink consistently It also works well mixed with oats, smoothies, or yogurt. 5) Large 5 lb size offers strong value If you use protein regularly, the 5 lb tub makes financial sense and reduces how often you need to reorder. ⸻ ⚠️ Cons 1) Premium price compared to basic whey You’re paying for isolate and hydrolyzed quality. It’s not the cheapest option on the shelf — but the digestibility and texture justify it for many users. 2) Not a mass gainer This is lean protein. If you’re looking for high-calorie shakes, you’ll need to add carbs or fats separately. 3) Artificial sweetener taste (slight) While well-balanced, there is still a mild sweetener presence if you’re very sensitive to that. ⸻ Wrap Up: Is Dymatize ISO100 Worth It? If you want a clean, fast-digesting whey isolate that mixes smoothly and tastes good enough to drink daily, the Dymatize ISO100 Vanilla is an excellent choice. It’s especially well-suited for: • post-workout recovery • athletes managing macros • anyone who values digestibility and texture Overall: a high-quality whey isolate that delivers performance and consistency without unnecessary fluff.

I was scouting for some new protein since my last one finished. I stumbled across this one and it didn’t disappoint. It blends well in a shaker and tastes amazing with Greek yogurt. I have a hard time liking protein powder with water but this was really good, I purchased the chocolate flavor and it taste like a hot chocolate in water. Definitely recommend it’s high quality, I have no stomach discomfort, using this to build muscle, and consistency isn’t chalky.

I have tried quiet a few brands of protein and I will say that Dymatize is the GOAT. The best. I’ve seen my best results, best gains, felt the best taking it, nothing but praises. Great price too. I’ve tried brands that were not too great for recovery, upset my stomach horribly, one even spiked my blood sugar every time I took it. I throw it into my shaker bottle with some water, never tried with oat milk (the milk I drink) and it tastes great and dissolves beautifully. I have tried: Cookies and cream, tastes like ice cream, yum Chocolate, yum Cocoa pebbles, big yum Fruity pebbles, yum yum, a favorite Birthday cake pebbles, too sweet for my liking Cinnamon cereal, tastes like Cinnamon Toast Crunch And finally strawberry, the reason I wanted to leave this review, Dymatize I love you but that one was not it. How do you do strawberry wrong? That one is disgusting. I take my last serving today. Every time I take it I wince. It’s horrible. Other than that five stars, two thumbs up, best protein ever. For a yard stick to measure with, I’m a powerlifter, train six days a week so protein is super important for my diet. I’m cutting right now so when I enter my surplus I’ll be trying their mass gainer powder. I trust this brand a lot

Dymatize ISO100 has hands down become my go-to protein powder. I have now tried 9 flavors, they are (in no particular order): - Chocolate Caramel - Chocolate Peanut Butter - Cinnamon Bun - Cocoa Pebbles - Cookie and Cream - Fudge Brownie - Gourmet Chocolate - Gourmet Vanilla - Strawberry There are really four main factors that matter to me in a protein powder; How well does it mix, What's actually in it, how much does it cost, and the most important factor of all, taste. 1) How well does it mix: It mixes great, zero complaints on this front. It borderline mixes too well. I typically have my protein in one of two ways; a shaker bottle with a metal shaker, mixed with water or milk, or a protein shake/smoothie mixed in a ninja blender. In both situations, I have zero issues with the mix. Never comes out clumpy or lumpy. Some of the flavors mix so well they come out very foamy (more so than other powders) and I actually have to wait a bit so I'm not just drinking bubbles. 2) What's in it?: I am not a supplement expert, but Dymatize's ISO100 has significantly less cholesterol than a lot of competitors, and that's good enough for me. This factor matters the least to me, I don't look too much into ingredient labels, but heart disease does run in my family, so avoiding unnecessary cholesterol, which is common in a lot of powders, is a big plus. 3) Cost: I think the price is exceptional for the product. Sometimes there will be great deals here on Amazon for specific flavors. I will get to it in the next section, but even though I do not think Dymatize has the hands-down best flavors, for the cost I couldn't be happier. 4) Taste: THE BIG ONE!!! Gourmet Chocolate is without question my absolute favorite chocolate flavored protein powder. Totally subjective obviously, but I don't think anything else even really comes close, and I've tried a pretty extensive selection of chocolates. For a reference point that a lot of people can relate to, I do not like Optimum Nutrition's chocolate at all, I think it's pretty disgusting. I am giving an overall rating of 4 stars because aside from gourmet chocolate and cookies and cream, I do not think any of the other flavors I've tried are out of this world. Look above for the list of all the chocolate variants I've had. I won't bother buying any of them again, because the gourmet chocolate is just plain better than all of the others. The flavor difference is minimal enough that I don't care for them to add variety, but big enough that I see no reason to waiver from the king. Chocoloate Peanut Butter is an outlier on the chocolates, It's really good too, BUT when I want a chocolate peanut butter flavor, I think it tastes way better to just use gourmet chocolate, and then add a tablespoon or two of peanut butter powder, like PB Fit. It's a small amount more calories for a lot more protein and a much less artificial flavor. Cookies and Cream is my second favorite. It's also super delicious. Now that I've experimented with most of the flavors, I will probably just be buying cookies and cream and gourmet chocolate, so that I don't get bored of one. Gourmet vanilla and cinnamon bun are fine. If you really like those flavors I have no complaints. Strawberry I could not get to taste good in a smoothie. Just wouldn't sit right with me. Mixed with just almond milk it's pretty yummy though. I got pretty tired of this flavor pretty fast and will likely not buy it again. I'm generally not crazy about fruit flavored protein powders though. So, I didn't give 5 stars because not every flavor is my favorite. What is you might ask? I really love Ghost Protein. I think they have the best flavors if you want 3 or more choices. Their coffee flavor is my favorite protein of all time. BUT, Ghost is a lot more expensive. The ISO100 makes me a lot happier when I remember I'm spending quite a bit less per scoop (I usually buy the 3 lb tubs of ISO100, which is obviously cheaper per oz). It just comes down to price to performance, and right now ISO100 wins it for me. I still buy Ghost from time to time because I like it so much. Just for funsies here is my fairly generic protein smoothie I have almost every morning for my breakfast. 1 scoop of either Gourmet Chocolate -or- Cookies and Cream ISO100. 3/4 cup milk 2 tablespoons peanut butter powder (I like PB Fit) 1 whole frozen banana 1/4-1/2 cup frozen black coffee ice cubes (you can of course just use regular ice cubes) About 35-40g of protein for a 350-400 calorie smoothie that tastes BANGIN. If you try it out, blend the milk, PB powder, and protein together first. Then add the coffee ice cubes and blend for 30 seconds to a minute. Then add the banana and blend to desired thickness, another 30 seconds - 1 minute. If you try to do it all at once, there are too many cold ingredients and the protein and PB powder won't blend as well as it normally would otherwise. OBLIGATORY FINAL SENTENCE IN ALL CAPS ABOUT GETTING THEM GAINZZZ.

it tastes so good! i made it with a banana and couple strawberries and it’s my new obsession. it doesn’t taste chalky at all. the container is barely half way full idk why they don’t just use a smaller container but i guess that’s all protein things.

Not only is this delicious but I can add it to my hot coffee to level up my mornings without going through trouble of getting out my blender to make a cold smoothie in the winter months. This is by far my new favorite way to use this powder. I let my coffee cool slightly and is dissolves like a dream making my hot coffee taste more like a hot cocoa. No residue left behind, no clumps just great tasting leveled up black coffee that packs a protein punch. I add unflavored collagen peptides for a total of 43 grams in my coffee

I’m very happy with this product. The quality is excellent and it works exactly as described. You can really tell a lot of care went into making it. It arrived in perfect condition and was easy to use from the first time. I would definitely recommend it and would buy it again without hesitation.

So this is a review of 3 flavors. I have tried the Gourmet Chocolate, Vanilla and Fruity Pebbles. What I have find out is the quality and taste depends on the size container you purchase. I have purchased the Gourmet Chocolate a few times in the bigger 3lb container, and I love it! The flavor is great, the protein shake comes out thick and creamy. But when I purchase the smaller 1.34lb container and I have two times, it tastes more watered down and doesn't come out thick or creamy no matter how much I shake it in my bottle. So the 3lb bottle, I will give it 5 stars. The 1.34lb bottle, I will give it 3 stars. I purchased both the Vanilla and Fruity Pebbles flavors in the smaller 1.34lb container size and the flavor is not very prominent. Vanilla tastes awkward, a bit watered down, and with the Fruity Pebbles flavor, you can faintly taste the Fruity Pebbles. I give both of them 3 stars as well. Maybe they taste better in the bigger container but I'm not willing spend that amount of money to try and find out. Also the price for the 3lb container has increased by 40% since I purchased my first bottle of Gourmet Chocolate earlier this year, which is nuts. I want to try another brand out due to price but I do like the flavor and quality of the Gourmet Chocolate.
