BSN : Syntha-6 Protein Powder

Way back when Predator Nutrition was founded in 2009 Syntha-6 reigned supreme as the best selling protein for users who desired not just a high protein per serving but also the type of jaw-dropping taste and texture that made each shake a treat you would look forward to all day.

However, with changing tastes BSN made the decision to reformulate Syntha-6 as the new Syntha-6 Edge which adopts a higher protein percentage to appeal to those whose primary concern when buying a protein is the macronutrient profile. While Syntha-6 Edge has certainly proven to be a popular protein powder it has not changed the fact that for many people the original version of Syntha-6 is the one they loved the most. 

Limited Run Syntha-6 Returns

Glanbia, the parent company behind both BSN and Optimum Nutrition have taken on board the feedback received and for a limited time only, decided to reintroduce Syntha-6 exactly as it was before with the only difference being that now they have introduced three new flavours in Chocolate Mudslide, New York Cheesecake, and Strawberry Swirl that taste as good as they sound!

Syntha-6 - Tastes Like Nothing Else

Here at Predator we feel that it is one of the best tasting proteins out there and this has certainly been backed up users of Syntha-6 over the last few years. Compared to some proteins BSN Syntha-6 makes for a deliciously thick, creamy shake and is about as close to a milkshake as you can ever hope to find in a protein. It is a decadent taste certainly but one which has led to an army of fans for Syntha-6.

We would argue that nothing out there is as distinctive as Syntha-6 with a taste and texture that will convince you that you are buying the world's best tasting milkshake but in actual fact you are buying one of the most popular protein blends ever made which features a blend of not two or three but SIX different proteins including whey protein isolate, micellar casein and egg to produce a delivery profile that means you can use this any time of the day. The whey protein within Syntha-6 will deliver critical branched chain amino acids to your muscles at a super fast pace while the egg protein contains high levels of the amino acid cysteine and choline which is important for brain function. Finally the milk proteins in Syntha-6 are the final word in slow releasing proteins which, because they take a long time for your body to digest enable your Syntha-6 shake to feed your muscles for up to 10 hours at a time.

What About the Protein Percentage?

We are never shy at discussing the bad about the product and it has to be said that at 47% protein per 100g, Syntha-6 is far behind its competitors. Does that make it one for people who simply want a great tasting protein?

Our view here is that Syntha-6 is actually well suited to a certain person who needs more calories to gain weight, more carbohydrates to fuel performance as well as protein to help build muscle. Unfortunately, gyms across the world are full of individuals who struggle to gain weight due to an overemphasis on consuming protein only while shortchanging their bodies of the carbohydrates and essential fats that are equally important if you are looking to improve performance and mass.

For naturally lean individuals in particular we think Syntha-6 would be a better choice than the Edge version for the simple fact it makes it easier to hit your calorie, protein and carb targets.

Perfect for that night time shake which ensures you don't lose muscle overnight. Syntha-6 is ideal for someone looking to build muscle, and for someone watching their weight. For an ultra-premium protein blend that tastes great, look no further!
