| ISS Research has come up with the perfect low carb protein powder in their Whey Matrix Cookies & Cream. Blends like a dream with coffee (yes, I said "coffee" ... that's how I start most of my days: COLD flavored coffee and 1-2 scoops of the powder). Whether I shake it or "Magic Bullet it" or get really fancy and put it in the blender and add ice, I need no other tweaks for a tasty morning protein shake. With most other protein powders, I end up adding half & half and Splenda ... this is unnecessary with ISS. I'm re-ordering (for the umpteenth time) and also buying the chocolate. I can't say enough good stuff about this product ... and the price on netrition.com cannot be beat! |

| Perhaps the best chocolate whey I've ever had, and I've tried a lot, including most of the top selling brands. |

| This is the best tasting and the easiest to mix protein I have used. And I have tried a lot of different protein mixes. |

| Whey Matrix tastes great! When I first began drinking protein powders over 20 years ago, it was like drinking chalk. Though today there are many great protein powders on the market, few still have nailed the taste. Since I splurge and use a blender every time I make my shake, I have no concerns about mixability because with a blender it is spot on perfect. I have tried to mix Whey Matrix in the past with a spoon or shaker and the results were always clumpy and nasty, so I do not recommend it if that is how you make your shakes. But if you're able to use a blender, and only taste and contents are of the utmost importance, then Whey Matrix is the powder for you. Great price, great taste and full of everything you need in a protein powder. |

| I love this stuff! Mixes amazingly well in a shaker and tastes great! Doesn't make me feel bloated. It's a great and healthier way to satisfy a sweet tooth. |

| Whey Matrix protein powder by ISS got one thing right: the taste. In particular, the 5 lb. chocolate whey mix is as tasty as any protein powder on the market. Just the right amount of cocoa (no extra sugar) means you aren't left with a chalky taste. The ingredients in Whey Matrix are industry stand for protein blends: Isolate & Concentrate with peptides with a respectable sugar/calorie and fat count.
The bad news: Whey Matrix does NOT mix well - particularly if you're just mixing it with just water and a spoon. About 1/4 of the mix surfaces no matter how vigorously you stir! Using a blender only slightly alleviates the problem. The consistency of Whey Matrix is more like flour than a powder. It is great for sprinkling on oatmeal or mixing with pancakes (so I'm told), but if you want a quick blast of protein – be prepared to gulp down lumpy liquid. Considering that you have so many great protein powders on the market that practically dissolve and disappear when they hit liquid (Ispoure) - you'd think ISS would put a little more effort into making this protein blend more user friendly.
Overall not a terrible product and a good $ value, but with so many better protein mixes, why bother with ISS? |

| Mixes horribly and the Vanilla flavor tastes terrible. The only thing good about it is that it is somewhat inexpensive. |

| ABSOLUTE WORST MIXING Whey Protein in the universe. It clumps up seconds after mixing for 3.5 minutes. I would not take a lifetime supply of this for FREE. |
