Just bought the new clear protein (incentivised by the free creatine). Good change from whey with a nice clean taste. Originally looking to buy Gold Standard but at nearly £100 a tub that was a no go.... See more

I don’t usually leave reviews. However, from someone who has constant gut issues, this is the only whey I’ve found (so far) which is the easiest on my stomach. Even whey isolate from USN etc hits my s... See more

Great flavour, mixes well without leaving any lumps like some other brands. I find that going a little bit bigger on the scoop size adds to the consistency and flavour. Morning after a heavy sessio... See more

Performance Nutrition and recovery

Super fast delivery, next day now! Products are great, lots of choices and flavours to choose from. From a leading nutrition and performance brand, I wouldn’t expect anything else, that’s why I don’t go anywhere else. Been using their products for years and have always got great results with superior recovery. Would definitely recommend if your health, wellbeing, body and recovery are your goals.

So impressed with this company.

I’ve been using this product for years but first time I’ve ordered direct from the manufacturer.
I am so impressed. The price was great. Next day delivery was fantastic with an hour allotted delivery slot, super impressive.

Package seal doesn't work

I bought the 4.5kg of whey protein so I can have it for a long time, and although the protein itself is of great quality (absolutely the best), the packaging just doesn't seal properly.
I tried it in all possible ways, but it's just faulty and will not stick no matter what. It's a pity, because now I have to use other ways to close it and it's definitely not air-tight. You should review your production line because something is not working well.

Recommended but electric blue colouring unecerssary!

The product was recommended for its benefits and effectiveness but I have to say why on earth do they need to put an electric blue colouring in it? Adding silly colourings for no benefit? Don’t think I can use it as it contains this which I had no idea about when I purchased.

Fast Delivery, Great Taste & Long Expiry

Ordered Optimum Nutrition on the evening of Friday 23 January and was really impressed with the speed — shipped on Monday and delivered on Tuesday.

The tub arrived completely sealed and intact, with a great expiry date (almost 2 years). I ordered the Extreme Milk Chocolate flavour: there’s a very slight sweetener taste, but nothing overpowering, and the overall chocolate flavour is actually really good. Mixes well and goes down easily.

Very happy with both the product and the service — would definitely order again.

Horrible Delivery Service and customer support

My order, which was scheduled for delivery on Thursday, 22/01/2026, has still not reached me. I would like to highlight the issues I have faced so far:
Thursday:
I was informed that the courier could not deliver my order as “no one was present.” This is incorrect. I live in a student accommodation with a 24/7 reception, and no delivery attempt was made. I also did not receive any call from the delivery agent. I was then notified that my parcel had been redirected to a collection point nearly 50 minutes away from my address. After calling customer support, I was told the parcel would be redelivered on Monday.
Monday:
I waited for the parcel, but instead received another notification asking me to collect it. When I contacted customer support, the call was disconnected after a long wait. I called again, and after another delay I was informed that the delivery driver had not picked up my parcel for redelivery on Monday. I was assured the matter would be escalated and the parcel would arrive on Tuesday (27/01/2026). However, today I received the same collection email once again after which i called the courier again and they said the goods are now being returned to sender.

I tried Optimum nutritions help desk number but the automated voice told me that they have suspended calls and i should email them. I have sent but 2 emails and i have not gotten any response on their end whatsoever.

This experience has caused significant inconvenience and highlights major issues with communication, delivery accuracy, and customer support. I request that this matter be investigated urgently and that my parcel be delivered to my address as originally scheduled.

Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, and I’m truly sorry for the delay and the frustration this situation has caused.

I also want to apologise for the delay in our response. Your emails were not ignored; our team has been actively working in the background to resolve this and has already escalated the issue with the logistics company. According to the latest update, your parcel is expected to be delivered today.

If, for any reason, the delivery still doesn’t happen, please rest assured that you will not lose your money. We can request the parcel to be returned to us and will be more than happy to arrange either a replacement or a full refund — whichever works best for you.

We genuinely appreciate your patience, and we’re committed to making sure this is resolved properly for you. If you need anything else, we’re here to help.
