Mutant Whey Review

Mutant Whey

Overview

Mutant Whey is a unique 5-Stage Whey Protein that triggers noticeable muscle growth and increases nitrogen retention. Yes, whey protein helps you grow – but Mutant Whey helps you grow bigger and faster.

New Mutant Whey has been developed after 28 months of dedicated research. It is the world's first protein to use specially selected proteins, each with their own unique uptake rate. This 5-Stage Whey Protein allows each source its own unique delivery to the limited number of protein receptor sites in your digestive system.

What does this mean? It simply means no wasted protein – 100% whey uptake! Each of the 5 whey protein sources are 100% complete and rich in anabolic BCAAs and Glutamine to help speed recovery. 

Features

·                                 5 whey blend triggering greater muscle protein synthesis

·                                 Fortified with extra glutamine

·                                 No aspartame - sweetened with sucralose

·                                 Addictive taste - perfect for everyday use

·                                 Half the cholesterol of other whey brands

·                                 Lactose reduced

·                                 Smooth mixability

Yeah that all sounds great on paper but the fact is there is always going to be some “wasted” protein 100% whey uptake is not a possibility. The real selling point on Mutant Whey is the 5-stage protein release, yes I know this isn’t the only product to do this but it is a great idea and I’m surprised that more companies haven’t made a bigger deal about it.

Taste

I had the Strawberry flavour and they are right it is “addictive”. It fact it tastes damn good! Its mixes very well without a blender and comes out thick and smooth like a milkshake despite me using water. I was happy to drink 3 of these a day, I looked forward to it and I want one now damn it. I think the days of horrific tasting protein shakes are behind us, they are all delicious.

It’s worth noting that even if you use single, double or even triple scoops it comes out amazing so long as you adjust the liquid level accordingly. 10/10

Fairly low protein count at 22g but you can double scoop as Mutant suggest. All in all it’s a good profile but it does have the noticeable exception of Creatine in which most protein shakes do have these days so you would have to supplement with that on top of Mutant Whey. Although I suppose this is billed as a “Whey” protein so adding in Creatine and other “optional extras” would make it more of an all-in-one so this omission can be excused. The 5-Stage protein that should be their main marketing ploy is hidden under the “ingredients” section but it all means that they will be absorbed at slightly different speeds so it will drip feed your muscles.

I love the added Glutamine this should really help with recovery meaning that Mutant Whey can and should be used post workout as well as throughout the day. 7/10

Serving Size

Container Size: 2270 g

Serving Size: 1 scoop (36 g)

Servings Per Container: 63

Mutant are being a bit sneaky here as they show the servings a 1 scoop but recommend that you take 2 scoops at a time effectively halving their value. I don’t like when companies mess you around like that.

However if you want to take one scoop at a time then it is a good sized bag. If you take the recommend dosage of 2 scoops its an average sized bag. 7/10

Price

There had to be sticking point! This is not a cheap protein. Costing you upwards of £32.75 for a 2.2kg bag means that each (2 scoop) serving costs you £1.02. There are more expensive proteins on the market but this is a top end product and you are paying for that. It’s the equivalent of not doing your food shopping at Marks and Spencers and going to Waitrose instead. 6/10

Side Effects

None. 10/10

Results

I’ll be damned, the 5-Stage, drip feed your muscles, addictive tasting and 100% badass Mutant Whey will actually turn you into a Mutant. This is an effective protein supplement. In fact saying that Mutant Whey is effective is doing this product a disservice. It’s awesome. I used this Mutant Whey in conjunction with a Creatine product and an intense training regime (GVT baby), I used Mutant Whey before and after my workout and another serving during the evening. All my servings were single scoops (as that’s all I needed to hit MACROs). I gained 5lbs of solid muscle during the month. Have you ever run GVT before? You are in agony for 99.99% of the week, using Mutant Whey I felt agony maybe only 25% of the week. As a recovery product it works as one of the best. As its fairly low calorie as well it is easy to keep fat gain down which is handy because as this taste so good if it was a high calorie shake I’d have to book my slot on “The Biggest Loser”.

The only down side to Mutant Whey is the price. If money is not an issue to you then I urge you, no I plead with you to try Mutant Whey. I assure you though that you are paying for quality. If you can find it on offer for say less than £25 first I want you to buy it, then I want you to tell me where you’ve found it so I can stock up!

 I have said that I would never give a product a perfect 10 but this is going to be flipping close.

Drum roll please…..

9.99/10 (if it was slightly cheaper I would have given it a perfect 10)
