The protein here comes mainly from skimmed milk powder (a source of casein and whey protein) with some added soy protein, unlike many others which use rapidly assimilated pure whey protein.

Carbohydrate is supplied from dried glucose syrup, sugar and maltodextrin. Together, these provide a 3.5:1 ratio of carb to protein.

It’s also fortified with 10 vitamins and three minerals, with especially useful amounts of zinc and magnesium – important for muscle repair/growth and energy production.

Mixed as directed with water resulted in a pleasant but not especially chocolatey taste. However, there was a rather powdery consistency and aftertaste. At 2.2p per gram, the cost is low, but this is only fair for what is a cheaper formulation.
