<p>Today I will be doing a totally unbiased review of a milk protein powder, Myprotein Milk Smooth actually.</p>
<figure id="attachment_177" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-177" style="width: 300px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><a href="https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?s=2272021&;v=10423&;q=349292&;r=324139" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img class="wp-image-177 size-medium" src="https://warriorbodyandmind.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/Milk-protein-300x300.jpg" alt="Milk protein" width="300" height="300" /></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-177" class="wp-caption-text">How does it stack up?</figcaption></figure>
<p>I talked about the benefits of <a href="http://warriorbodyandmind.com/casein-protein-vs-whey-protein/">milk protein concentrate</a> in a previous article, and why I use it.</p>
<p>Due to being 20% Whey and 80% slow releasing casein it is very versatile. You can use it after workout, before bed, or anytime in between.</p>
<p>It’s especially useful if you know you will be going more than 3 hours before your next meal.</p>
<h2><strong>MILK PROTEIN QUALITY</strong></h2>
<p>Despite being a relatively new company, it has undisputed quality standards.</p>
<p>Considering the amino acid spiking fiasco, where we found out some companies are adding extra amino acids like taurine, glutamine, and creatine to their protein powders.</p>
<p>The problem is they are counting these added amino acids as dietary protein on the label, even though, they’re nowhere near as beneficial as real food-based protein, or proper protein powders. Be it whey, casein, milk protein, etc.</p>
<p>They do it, because it saves them a lot of money, because the amino acids that they add, are very cheap. And since the good ol’ FDA loose definition of protein, this practice is technically legal.</p>
<p>That means that your serving of 25g of protein could actually be 15g of dietary protein and 10g of random amino acids, which have far fewer benefits.</p>
<p>The quality of Myprotein’s Milk Smooth blend isn’t known, but considering that under independent (Labrador) testing, 3 of their proteins ranked in the top 10, with one being the best.</p>
<p>I think it’s safe to assume there is no spiking going on, and that <strong>you get a quality product</strong>.</p>
<p><strong>10/10</strong></p>
<p><a class="thirstylink" href="https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?s=2272021&;v=10423&;q=349292&;r=324139" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer"><img class="thirstylinkimg alignnone" src="http://warriorbodyandmind.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/images-1.jpg" alt="" width="582" height="72" /></a></p>
<h2><strong>MILK PROTEIN PRICE </strong></h2>
<p>I dislike overpaying things, which doesn’t mean ill buy a bad product just to save a dollar. That just doesn’t make sense.</p>
<p>I like to get the best bang for my buck. <strong>Despite the quality</strong>, this is the cheapest protein blend available.</p>
<p>On top of that, they usually run a 20-30% discount on all their protein powders.</p>
<p>So in the end, the price cannot be beaten! If you find a cheaper blend with the same quality,<strong> let me know. I will make the switch immediately</strong>.</p>
<p><strong>10/10</strong></p>
<h2><strong>TASTE AND FLAVORS </strong></h2>
<p>The taste is subjective, but consider the fact it&#8217;s not the best I had. I’m not saying it’s bad, I’m saying it doesn’t have that WOW this is delicious factor.</p>
<p>At least on its own, when you add peanut butter to chocolate, that’s a whole other ball game, but on its own? It’s nothing special.</p>
<p>I tried all of the available flavors, banana, chocolate, strawberry, and vanilla.</p>
<p>You could also get the unflavored one, but that tastes like really watery milk. You would need to buy an additional sweetener if you wanted a different taste.</p>
<p>My wife prefers Vanilla, while I like to buy chocolate and strawberry, so I can switch it up a little.</p>

<h2><strong>TIPS</strong></h2>
<p>Due to the properties of casein, you can eat milk protein as a pudding if you wish. If you want to drink it as a shake, then the only thing you need to do is add more water.</p>
<p>I tend to eat the chocolate flavor one as a pudding, with oats or peanut butter. <strong>Add a pinch of salt</strong> so it enhances the flavor, trust me on this.</p>
