PhD Smart Protein Bar review: I’d recommend these for plant-based diets

PhD Smart Protein Bars pack plenty of high quality whey protein and come in a wide variety of flavors, says nutritionist Rob Hobson.

Some of the best protein bars I’ve tested, PhD Smart Protein Bars are fairly large at 64g, offering a blend of milk protein, collagen hydrolysate and soy protein isolate. There’s a wide range of flavors to choose from, as well as half-sized and vegan versions.

Men’s Fitness verdict

Nice rich taste
Good amount of protein
Not too sweet
Slightly gritty texture
High in polyols
Big 64g bar

How we test the best protein bars

Registered nutritionist (AFN) and sports nutritionist (SENr) Rob Hobson only tested chocolate-flavoured bars to provide consistency in his reviews. He judged them on their taste, texture and nutritional effectiveness, as well as cost and availability, and the amount of polyols – a type of sweetener which can upset the gut in high amounts.

PhD Smart Bar benefits

With 20g of protein in each bar, there’s enough here to be effective as a post-workout option or to supply you with a source of protein during the day between meals. This is the biggest bar size on test and contains the most calories with up to 261g per serving depending on the flavor. Bear in mind that’s partly because of the serving size.

PhD bars are low in sugar and sweetened with maltitol (polyol). They contain 20g of polyols, the highest of any of protein bars on test. We’d recommend sticking to just one at a time (or going for the half-sized bars), especially if you are sensitive to polyols, as they can have a laxative effect if eaten in excess.

Flavor and texture

The chocolate brownie flavor bar I tested is coated in dark chocolate with a crispy filling and cocoa nibs. It has a deliciously rich chocolate flavor and a slightly chewy texture. I wasn’t too fond of the cocoa nibs as they can feel a little gritty and get stuck in your teeth. Though that shouldn’t be the case with other flavors that don’t have cocoa nibs.

It doesn’t taste too sweet, unlike some of the other protein bars on test. Overall, the PhD Smart Bar is a rich flavored bar with a good amount of protein. With nine flavors and vegan protein bar alternatives, you’re bound to find one that suits you.

PhD Diet Whey Review

Used as a healthy snack between meals or a post-workout protein hit, this great tasting supplement is ideal for anyone looking to burn fat while building/maintaining lean muscle. Another excellent product from PhD Nutrition.

There are a few things in life which I find overwhelmingly mundane.

Washing up, baby photos, the Victorian era (it’s just too long), Hugh Grant, anything by Jane Austen…

Another is dieting.

It’s just so difficult to summon up the enthusiasm to eat couscous and carrots, day in, day out.

It’s comparable to someone confiscating all of your high-def niche pornography and forcing you to rub one out over an old oak tree instead.

It’s just not the same.

Having said that, during my last foray into dieting/cutting/getting spectacularly shredded, there was one oasis of flavour, one meal which I genuinely looked forward to guzzling down each day.

That was PhD Diet Whey .

Product overview

Essentially it acts as a healthy, low-carb snack alternative or a convenient source of protein post-workout.

Per serving, you’re looking at about 35g of protein (whey protein, milk protein concentrate, soya protein isolate), 7g of low GI carbs, and 2g of sugar.

This blend of ingredients helps keep you feeling full throughout the day and should help eliminate those pesky sugar cravings.

PhD Diet Whey also contains added nutrients to help boost fat loss and maximise performance and energy levels, such as green tea, CLA, l-carnitine, waxy vol and flaxseed.

Personally, I’ve never heard of some of those ingredients – they could well be made up:

Marketing Exec 1: “Paul, how can we make this supplement more appealing?”

Marketing Exec 2: “Have you tried making up a load of impressive sounding ingredients? They fucking love that.”

Marketing Exec 1: “What about… Waxy Vol?”

Marketing Exec 2: “Bingo!”

Taste and texture

At the time of writing, PhD Diet Whey is available in five different flavours: vanilla, strawberry, Belgian chocolate, white chocolate, and chocolate orange.

I usually opt for the vanilla flavour, which, although quite sweet, tastes tremendous.

So much so I found myself having cravings for it.

The shake mixes well with no lumps in sight, but it is a little grainy, which is apparently due to the flaxseed.

I blended it with semi-skimmed milk (always tastes much, much better than with water) and would often throw in a banana or some other frozen fruit for a great tasting protein shake.

Effectiveness

Over the course of a month, I lost quite a few pounds, ‘leaned up’ considerably, and felt much more energised during training while using this supplement.

This was alongside three weightlifting sessions and three HIIT cardio session per week, as well a wholesome low-carb diet .

Obviously, it’s paramount that you use PhD Diet Whey in conjunction with a healthy lifestyle.

If you just spend all day sitting in your pants, playing Grand Theft Auto and eating Belgian buns, this shake is not going to help you lose weight or gain muscle.

The ‘slow release protein blend’ definitely helped to eliminate any cravings I normally have during the day.

Usually I hoover up every calorie in sight, with an appetite as indiscriminate as it is voracious, but PhD Diet Whey satiated this binge mindset considerably.

On a side note, PhD Diet Whey also digests very well.

Unlike a lot of other protein supplements that I have reviewed , it thankfully doesn’t leave a trail of toxic guff gas lingering behind you all day long.

So if you’re consistently smoking your other half out with volley after volley of noxious protein farts, this supplement should help ease tension in the relationship.

Value for money

The recommended retail price for PhD Diet Whey is usually £30 and £40 for a kilogram, which is a little steep in my opinion.

However, if you shop around online you can normally knock at least £10 off this price, making it much better value for money.

PhD Diet Whey is the ideal supplement for those looking to maintain muscle tissue while cutting down on fat.

It works perfectly as a low calorie snack between meals and/or post-workout protein fix, and helps keep those pesky sugar cravings at bay.

In addition, its great taste helps take the edge off those ineffably mundane diet plans.

All in all, another excellent product from PhD Nutrition.

Highly recommended!

Buy PhD Diet Whey

Typically cheapest place to buy PhD Diet Whey is here at Amazon where it normally goes for well below the recommended retail price.

If you’ve tried PhD Diet Whey and have an opinion on it, I’d love to hear from you.

Just hit me up with your thoughts in the comments section below.

Also, if you happen to find anywhere cheaper than Amazon, please get in touch.

Until then, stay strong and stay shredded!

Henry is the founder and editor of GymTalk. He spends most of his time sat at a computer shovelling peanuts into his mouth while trying to think up new ways to end sentences with the word “vagina”, but occasionally can be found at the squat rack or playing piano in Luton’s “second best” rock band.

One important caveat, however, is that while a split routine will yield initial results (“newbie gains”), they are, in the long term, far inferior to full-body routines which have you hitting the main compound lifts multiple times per week, allowing you to progress much more efficiently in terms of size and strength.

Check out out some of our workout reviews for more info – and do let me know if you have any further questions.

I’ve just brought 2kg Phd Diet Whey from Costco for about £28 with a free shaker.

Bit gutted cos I brought a 1kg £32 from Holland & Barrett the day before.

I’ve only just started using it as I’ve put a lot of weight on due to medication for depression and bipolar.

I go to the gym every day, I do 1 hour plus cardiovascular and about 3/4 hr doing weights.

Hopefully in a few weeks I will start to notice a change in my weight and muscle mass.

If there’s any advice for me it would be much appreciated.

Also do you think I should take the Diet Whey before I go to the gym?

Hi Richard, thanks for stopping by.

The advice I would give to you is to make sure you’re getting the most from each workout and not just spinning wheels.

Cardio-wise, make sure you’re focusing on high intensity interval work (sprints, bag work, etc) which is much more effective at expediting fat lass and also more time-efficient.

With lifting weights, make sure you’re focusing on the main compound lifts (squat, deadlift, bench press, rows, dips, pull ups, etc) as they will give you much more bang for your buck in terms of strength and muscle gain – and will also burn more calories and help with fat loss.

Also remember that less is sometimes more.

Three decent sessions per week (with lots of time to rest and recover) will, long term, be much more effective than seven mediocre sessions every week.

Also, working out less will leave you more motivated to get back in the gym and you’ll probably enjoy your workouts a lot more.

Hope that helps – and let me know if you have any further questions 🙂

All the best with your training!

Hi I’m training for a triathlon so I am doing a lot of cardio but pushing myself hard but also doing a small amount of weights.

Should I be taking the Diet Whey as I would like to shift some more pounds?

Yes, any protein supplement will help with a strenuous regimen such as yours, as it’s an absolutely vital macro-nutrient for maintaining a healthy/fit body.

If your goal is also to loose some extra weight, then I would absolutely recommend PHD Diet Whey, as it has a heap of extra ingredients to expedite fat loss.

I was quite excited to hear about this product until I read that you punched a cat for staring at you.

I certainly hope that you got reported for it.

I didn’t get reported for that, but I did get reported for dropkicking on owl and then hammer throwing an otter over the roof of a local Burger King.

Recently I started going to the gym and I am thinking to buy this product.

Before I purchase this product I would like to ask you a question which makes me think to buy or not.

Nowadays I don’t have any weight problems also I don’t wanna get kilos and also wanna build a muscle body.

Do you think this product is the best to purchase to achieve my goal?

Thanks SAFA

Yes, supplementing your diet with added protein will aid muscle recovery and growth.

Which flavour tastes better then all?

Vanilla is the tastiest IMO

Can I take it 2 times a day?

Like for snacks after breakfast and before bed?

Or 1 time per day is enough?

As many as is necessary really.

Try to think in terms of meeting your daily quotient, which should be around 1 to 1.5g of protein per pound of bodyweight.

Hi, I’ve been taking the vanilla flavoured Diet Whey in a smoothie along with 2 bananas and coffee every morning for breakfast for over a year now.

It keeps my bowel regular after I had a bowel op over 2 years ago.

I look forward to taking it and miss it if I don’t have it.

I occasionally swap the bananas for blueberries omitting the coffee.

I’m 66 years old so the only exercise I do is walking but I’m always busy during the day.

Should I be doing more ?

I would always recommend more exercise – but if you’re doing as much as you can and eating well, then that is absolutely fine.

What do you know about the PhD meal replacement powder is that any good/good idea?

Or is it better to take the Diet Whey between meals as you previously recommend rather than replacing an entire meal with it?

I would always advise against relying on meal replacement shakes to lose weight.

They’re not a sustainable option and starve your body of essential calories/nutrients, which, more often than not, will send your body into an “emergency state” where it clings on to body fat instead of burning it.

Instead, take a protein shake, such as this one, between meals to get your daily protein intake to around 1 to 1.5g per pound of bodyweight.

Have just started my gym a month ago and used to earlier have my routine running and excercise.

Now I wish to go for good muscular body, I’m aged 27 years and weight is 88kg with 6 feet height.

Would like to know with your experience which PHD protein – should I opt for it to grow my muscles better and more strengthening?

Hi Dilawar.

Certainly – I would always recommend supplementing a diet with protein if your goal is to gain muscle.

Last year I lost 4 stone.

I walk at least 15k steps a day & count calories.

I’ve just started back doing work out DVDs yesterday.

30 Day Shred.

I’m 29, female & 10st 2, 5’6″.

I won’t be able to do the DVDs everyday, but I will be walking everyday.

I’m weaker now due to no strength training during weight loss.

I want to get my strength back, but not bulk up.

I need to lose sagging skin.

Is PhD for me?

Please & thanks

You need to engage in resistance/weight training – otherwise supplementing with a protein shake will not help build muscle.

Just purchased these shakes as a kind of kick start.

I have food issues, and believe me when I say I have tried every single ‘diet’ out there, and now after not being a club member of anywhere I am now heavier than when I gave birth to my daughter and my mind is a mess.

I don’t want to replace meals long term, just the odd one here or there or even replacing snacks and being more mindful of my eating and drinking overall.

I noticed on an earlier question you mentioned if replacing meals too often your body effectively shuts down and goes into shock.

My question is as someone who is fast approaching 40, what is a recommended amount of calories to be taking onboard?

Currently I exercise by skating 2/3 times a week and the odd gym session with weights when I have time.

There is so much info out there and my poor head is filled with so much misinformation on nutrition.

I’m desperate to get out of this awful cycle.

Personally, I would advise not getting too hung up on calorie counting or sticking to diets.

Just keep it simple – have three wholesome meals a day with lots of meat, poultry, fish, fruit and veg.

Avoid snacking on rubbish, drink lots of water, exercise regularly, and get 8-9 hours sleep every night.

It’s really as simple as that – you just need to be consistent!

I’ve just bought PhD Diet Whey (Belgian Chocolate flavour) to help me get a protein rich start to my day when I’m short on time.

Tried it for the first time today and not liking how sweet it tastes.

Any suggestions on how to cut the sweetness?

Add more milk/water to dilute it further.

Failing that, try a different flavour.

I’ve just picked up some of this stuff, haven’t tried it yet.

My question to you sir is this –

In times of desperation, what exactly is wrong with masturbating over trees?

Is there a law against it or is it simply frowned upon?

Many thanks

If you’re going to do it, at least choose something elegant like a Cherry Blossom or a mighty Oak.

It sells in Cosco with a shaker for £30 no vat.

Gotta love Cosco!

It’s been 2 days since I’ve started this protein shake.

I took the vanilla flavour as this was recommended.

It tastes amazing.

By the way I would like your opinion about my meals.

Breakfast I have the shake with fruits.

Lunch big plate of salad with something (like pasta with pesto and cheese only size of my hand).

And the evening maybe a fruit again with the shake or salad and the shake.

Gym I will start in 2 days, I was thinking to try to go 3-4 times per week if it’s possible because I don’t have a standard schedule.

Should I try to go more?

Btw apart from the vanilla do you suggest any other flavours?

Because I will get bored.

Can you tell me a little more about your goals first, what are you trying to achieve?

I could find it in Asda yesterday for £17.29/kg!!

Good luck!!

Thanks for letting us know!

Holland and Barrett doing a 1kg bag £15 also matrix stores!!!

Hi Henry, I’ve had a couple of packets of PHD Whey Protein in my cupboard for about a year but when I went to make a shake this morning, I noticed lots of black bits in it and it didn’t smell as good as it did when first opened.

The expiry date isn’t until October 2017.

I have the chocolate and vanilla flavours.

Do you think this is still okay to use?

I’m not sure if the black bits are weevils.

If it fails the smell/taste test I would personally bin it.

You’ve done the best informing report yet about this magnificent product it helped me a lot but had to stop during pregnancy because I read it’s not safe.

Do you have any idea if it’s OK whilst breastfeeding then?

I don’t see why it wouldn’t be OK, but consult a doctor if you’re worried.

Love it… been on this for 16 days whilst remaining quite active and before I’ve actually started proper jogging, hiit and training.

I use it twice a day with one main meal have lost shit loads of weight already.

Don’t feel hungry… love it!

Great to hear it, feel free to get in touch if you have any questions!

Hi how long in total did you use it as a meal replacement and what were your results 🙂

I am 63 and bought this to aid losing weight after reading this I think i bought wrong product.

I am on my feet all morning as a cook and are going to start on my rowing machine is this enough to lose weight?

To lose weight you simply need to be consuming less calories than you burn.

If this is adding calories to your diet, it will do the opposite…

Hi, I’m a keen cyclist & have been recommended PHD Diet Whey to supplement the calorie burn.

I don’t actually want to lose too much weight.

Ideally maximise the muscle building.

Not going for the Froome physique… more a sprinter physique.

Does this fit the bill?

Anything that keeps you away from a caloric deficit will stop you from losing weight.

If this shake is convenient for you, go for it.

And if you want to maximise muscle gain, lift weights.

First class Henry! Cheers.

No worries, glad to help.

This is by far one of the best reviews I’ve read.

You are wasted peanut shovelling and should write a book.

Loved the review!!

I bought 1 kilo bags from Holland & Barrett in the following flavours (which I believe is currently the full set!) for £13.49 per bag less 20% discount.

I haven’t tried them all yet but some of these flavours make me salivate before I’ve even tried them!

I think I’ve got a protein shake fetish, although there are worse things to have a fetish about.

I’ve lost five kilos this year, and the annoying bit of fat around my mid section is now just a memory.

I would put my progress down to weights, cardio and counting calories via my fitbit, and not down to phd whey protein, but I like to think that it has definitely helped along the line.

I used to add it to soya milk but that became expensive and finicky, so now I just add it to cold water.

The first two or three gulps were less creamy to the taste, as you would expect, but since then I’ve never looked back.

TBH like many on here I just love the taste!

PhD Nutrition Diet Whey Protein Review – How Does It Compare?

Whey protein is a popular supplement for the many out there who exercise or take their health and fitness seriously. It helps with building muscle, recovery, and provides essential amino acids that support your body in many of its functions. On the other hand, though, many whey protein supplements are high in calories and have a high sugar content.

In comes PhD Nutrition Diet Whey Protein, which claims to be different than traditional whey protein powders. For starters, it has less calories and carbs than other protein supplements. It also consists of more CLA, flaxseed, and L-Carnitine than other options. This product is meant for increasing lean muscle mass while reducing body fat.

In this PhD Nutrition Diet Whey Protein review, we’re going to talk about what we found when we took a closer look at this diet Whey powder. We’ll go over what’s in it, how it tastes, who should use it, and more. Read on to find out if PhD Diet Whey Protein Powder is a good fit for you and how our review experience came out.

Whey protein - helps with building muscle

What Is PhD Diet Whey Protein Powder?

PhD Nutrition Diet Whey Protein is a protein supplement from PhD Performance Nutrition, the same producers as well-known testosterone booster PhD Test Matrix . PhD Nutrition Diet Whey Protein combines ingredients for targeting muscle building with those that support increases in energy and fat loss. It’s a high-protein, low-calorie blended supplement designed to help people reach their fitness goals.

The idea is not to put on a lot of fat when you’re working on toning your muscles. PhD keeps the carbohydrates and calories low, but the protein high in a serving of its PhD Diet Whey Protein Powder. PhD adds other ingredients that boost energy, increase fat burning, and promote better digestive health.

How Does PhD Nutrition Diet Whey Protein Compare?

PhD Diet Whey Protein Powder has 91 calories per 25 gram serving of the supplement. Traditional whey protein supplements often have anywhere from 110 to 160 calories per serving; for example, you’ll find 130 calories per serving in Bowmar Nutrition Whey Protein and 160 calories per serving in Gnarly Whey . The tricky thing to remember when you’re comparing protein powder supplements is to look at the serving size. They may not be the same.

PhD Nutrition Diet Whey Protein has less than 2 grams of fat and less than 3 grams of carbs per serving. The fat content and carbohydrates of other protein powders varies widely across the board.

PhD sets their product apart by adding more of certain ingredients to help boost the effectiveness of their protein powder. So, let’s take a look at what’s in this protein supplement.

PhD Diet Whey Protein Powder Ingredients

The ingredients in PhD Diet Whey Protein Powder add for extra muscle building, and fat burning power are CLA, flaxseed, and L-Carnitine. So, let’s talk about those and what they bring to the table.

CLA (Conjugated Linoleic Acid) – CLA is an omega-6 fatty acid that has many benefits for your body. Research shows there may be a link between CLA and weight loss. It decreases the amount of body fat you have. Other benefits may include preventing cancer and type 2 diabetes, as well as heart disease.
Flaxseed – Ground flaxseed improves your digestive system. It’s high in fiber and consists of omega-3 fatty acids. People use flaxseed to relieve constipation. It’s thought to lower the bad cholesterol level, too.
L-Carnitine – This amino acid improves cognitive function and stimulates weight loss. L-Carnitine is said to convert fat into energy for your body. The fatty acids enter the mitochondria (power producer in cells), where they are burned to create an energy source.

PhD Nutrition Diet Whey Protein has 750 milligrams of flaxseed powder per serving. It also has 375 milligrams of CLA and 125 milligrams of L-Carnitine.

PhD Diet Whey Protein Powder Flavors

PhD Nutrition Diet Whey Protein comes in more flavors than most other protein supplement brands. Here’s a list of their inventive flavors:

Vanilla Creme
Belgian Chocolate
White Chocolate
Chocolate Mint
Lemon & Blueberry
Salted Caramel
Chocolate Peanut
Cookies & Cream
Chocolate Orange
Royal Milk Tea
White Chocolate & Raspberry
Birthday Cake

Keep in mind some of the ingredients and nutritional information may vary a little from one flavor to another.

PhD Diet Whey Protein Powder Customer Reviews

We’re all different, but it’s helpful to hear what others who already use the protein have to say about their results and how the product tastes.

For the most part, users say they like the taste of the protein. Overall, Banana appears to be one of the favorite flavors. Belgian Chocolate and Vanilla Crème are also popular. Most reviewers say the mixture comes out thick but without lumps. The one common negative was from users saying the flavors taste too sweet.

Customers of this product say it works well to keep them full. It blends easily and has a smooth texture. They also mostly say it’s excellent for providing the nutrition they’re looking for. It’s a good value.

Users say they like the boost they get for their recovery when having this protein supplement. Generally, people like PhD Nutrition Diet Whey Protein as a post-workout supplement .

Who is PhD Nutrition Diet Whey Protein Best For?

PhD Diet Whey Protein Powder is the ideal supplement for people looking to gain lean muscle mass while cutting body fat. It’s high protein but low calorie and sugar.

PHD Diet Whey Protein - gain lean muscle mass

Though it’s not the right choice to include for anyone looking to bulk up. PhD Diet Whey Protein Powder isn’t engineered to add bulk to someone. While it supports muscle recovery and growth, it isn’t mixed for building large muscles.

Some people are allergic to whey protein. If you know you are or have a sensitivity to it, do not use PhD Nutrition Diet Whey Protein.

Is PhD Nutrition Diet Whey Protein Safe?

No protein supplement should be taken in excess. Too much of the added ingredients could result in negative side effects. But we want to focus on any possible side effects from using the supplement as intended.

Users report some instances of belly aches, cramping, and diarrhea. Some people said they felt sick after drinking their protein shakes. These are symptoms that many may experience when they drink protein supplements. PhD Nutrition Diet Whey Protein doesn’t have a lot of this reported, but there are some users indicating these side effects.

Is There Data to Back Up PhD Nutrition Diet Whey Protein?

There is scientific research that supports the benefits of specific ingredients in PhD Nutrition Diet Whey Protein. What we don’t see are any studies done by third parties of the product itself. PhD has yet to come out with any proof their supplement does what it says it can.

Where to Buy PhD Diet Whey Protein Powder

PhD Diet Whey Protein Powder is available in 3 sizes, with savings at each level. We will detail the pricing and savings below.

PhD Nutrition Diet Whey Protein Pricing:

500G – £12.74 / $17.12 (save 15%)
1KG – £19.19 / $25.78 (save 40%)
2KG – £29.50 / $39.64 (save 50%)

With three sizes/pricing tiers, savings at each order level, and 14 flavors to choose from (including options like Birthday Cake and Salted Caramel), there seems to be something for everyone when it comes to PhD Nutrition Diet Whey Protein.

Claims vs. Reality

PhD claims their Diet Whey Protein Powder is formulated with a high-protein, low-calorie blend. Which it does, at first glance. When you compare this supplement to other protein powders , make sure you look at the serving size indicated on the package. You want to make your comparison across a level playing ground.

The company also claims these powders have “market-leading taste and mixability.” The mixability does check out. Customers report it is easy to mix, and you aren’t left with lumps. The claim on taste isn’t full proof. There are reports that users like the taste. However, some users also report a fake or unpleasant taste.

The final claim we’ll look at is that PhD adds more CLA, flaxseed, and L-Carnitine than other brands. This claim is supported. The ingredients in protein powders vary widely across different brands of supplements. Some makers keep ingredient levels a secret due to proprietary formulas, but we can usually see if an ingredient is part of a supplement.

Conclusion: PhD Nutrition Diet Whey Protein Review

PhD Diet Whey Protein Powder is a high-quality supplement that works as a meal replacement or a post-workout recovery drink. The flavor assortment is large, meaning there is a flavor out there for everyone’s taste buds to enjoy.

PHD Diet Whey Protein - Raspberry and White Chocolate Flavour

PhD Nutrition Diet Whey Protein is also ideal for anyone looking to promote more lean muscle mass and less body fat. The added ingredients are targeted at trimming off fat while helping muscles recover quicker. While it is a good protein supplement, it isn’t right for everyone. You may need to do some tasting to find the right flavor, also.

In short, we think PhD Nutrition Diet Whey Protein is a good quality protein supplement that may not be right for everyone, but will work well for some.

Poor customer service

Bad customer service, after being a loyal client for quite some time there was no way to sell single bars from the new flavours, not to mention they did not offer them for free. Sad to say because i like some products, but it is gonna be another supplement company that soon will be history

I trust PhD

Been using PhD for years. At times I’d try other brands when it was hard to find PhD in Dubai, but eventually I gave up on trying anything else (luckily there are now services available for orders to the UAE from any part of the world). I trust the quality of PhD. I normally order proteins, BCAA, intra BCAA, lean degree and pre-workouts. All are great. I also tried Mind capsules and they did work for me. Customer service team (recent chat with Johnathan specifically) is always super helpful

PhD Nutrition Diet Whey Review (updated for 2019)

08/03/2017 By Stacey Teale, Site Editor

Its blend of whey protein concentrate, soya protein isolate and milk protein concentrate, along with waxy barley flour, is designed to help you build muscle, boost energy, provide the body with much-needed vitamins and help with weight management.

<<< SPECIAL: See our Best Protein Powders to Buy in the UK in 2020 >>>

It contains 91 calories per 25g serving and is low in sugar, fat and salt. A bigger serving (two scoops) should give you about 34g of protein alongside 5.5g of carbohydrates and 2.5g sugar. Different flavours may have slightly different nutritional values.

It also contains additional ingredients such as green tea extract, L-Carnitine and CLA, among others, to encourage weight loss, so let’s have a look at what they do and if they work…

Ingredients

Whey protein concentrate.

Whey protein is a popular source of protein, absorbed much quicker than other alternative sources. It can stimulate protein synthesis – the act of promoting muscle growth – in just 40 minutes after ingestion. Protein also helps the body to recover quicker after intense exercise. The whey protein here contains 3.3g of BCAA (Branched Chain Amino Acids), the amino acids responsible for synthesis, per 25g serving.

Whey protein concentrate is a cheaper option than whey isolate or hydrolysate, but PhD Nutrition Diet Whey includes two further protein sources as well, such as…

Milk Protein Concentrate

Milk Protein Concentrate (MPC), mostly micellar casein, may act as an appetite suppressor thanks to its slow-releasing protein which continues to release amino acids over time. A 2013 research paper also pointed out that the consumption of dairy products is linked to a decrease in metabolic-related diseases. Poor metabolic health is often linked to obesity or being overweight.

Soya Protein Isolate

A third form of protein, Soya Protein Isolate (SPI) usually contains a minimum protein content of 90% thanks to its highly purified form. It is believed to provide the full range of amino acids needed by the human body.

All three of the proteins mentioned above have varying digestion rates, potentially helping to lengthen the period of protein synthesis.

Fat Reduced Cocoa Powder

Now we come to the potential weight loss ingredients. Cocoa powder may be useful in weight loss, thanks to its flavonoids which can protect cells from free radicals. It is included here to protect against damage caused to proteins and enzymes. A Japanese study reporting in Nutrition (May 2005) also discovered that cocoa powder has the ability to interfere with the body’s ability to change dietary fat into fatty tissue. A three week test in rats found the cocoa powder group had significantly lower body fat than the control group.

Waxy Barley Flour

A type of starch, wax barley is commonly found in plants and can help to store energy. Barley can also decrease the level of glucose absorption in the blood, thus helping blood sugar levels to become more stable. Barley is also described as a main source of nutrients and fibre needed for a healthy diet. Studies also show that consuming barley can be an effective way to reduce LDL cholesterol, the bad cholesterol, in the body. LDL is responsible for cholesterol build up and potential blockage of the arteries.

Golden Brown Flaxseed Powder

Flaxseeds are a primary source of dietary fibre which, if taken before a meal, may act as an appetite suppressor. Studies have shown that it may also be able to lower ‘bad’ LDL cholesterol.

A powdered version of Conjugated Linoleic Acid, CLA may help people to lose weight by reducing fatty deposits in the body and boosting immunity. A meta-analysis of various studies showed that while CLA is more effective in animals, consuming approximately 3.2g a day of CLA could also help humans enjoy a ‘modest’ fat loss. Unfortunately, PhD Nutrition just contains 375mg of CLA per 25g serving.

Green Tea Extract

Green tea extract is a popular ingredient in fat burners thanks to its natural antioxidants, known as catechins, and small amount of caffeine which both help to speed up the metabolism. This thermogenic process helps the body to potentially burn more calories.

One research study , for instance, showed that people taking green tea extract lost 7.7% of fat around the abdominal area, as opposed to those taking a placebo (only lost 0.3%).

The effectiveness of green tea has long been recognised in weight loss circles.

It is low in fat, sugar and salt with just 91 calories per 25g serving.
Green tea is a well-known thermogenic agent, popular in weight loss circles because of its proven success.
Available in a wide range of flavours.
Vegetarian-friendly.
It is also halal, GMO-free and palm oil-free.
Contact details for PhD Nutrition are easy to find and you can telephone, speak to them online or fax.
PHD Nutrition is very upfront about its nutritional values.
It has gained a 4.1 rating out of 5 on Amazon UK at the time of writing (late 2018/2019)
While research into some of its ingredients is available, there have been no clinical studies done on PhD Nutrition Diet Whey as a whole. As a result, it is impossible to prove how successful it may be.
Some of the individual ingredients may cause side effects
Some customers have complained about the flavours, describing them as very sweet. Even those customers who like the taste admit the shake is grainy, probably as a result of the flaxseed included.
The mix is also described as quite thick and heavy, so is best avoided before a workout.
PhD Nutrition recommends one scoop of protein powder (25g) for a ‘normal’ shake, or two scoops to super-size it. If you opt for just one scoop, however, you will only consume 17g of protein, which is pretty low for a protein shake (experts recommend at least 20-25g of protein in a shake). Two scoops will give you about 35g of protein though that’s still lower than some of Diet Whey’s competitors, such as LA Muscle LA Whey Gold which gives nearly 50g of protein per serving (granted, per serving is 70g).
Can be quite pricey unless you can find a discount or special offer.

Who Takes It

PhD Nutrition states that its Diet Whey is suitable for men and women following a weight management nutrition plan, gym goers aiming to control calorie intake and lose body fat, and anyone wanting a high protein supplement. It is also suitable for anyone looking to replace a meal with a high protein and low sugar, fat and carb shake.

Safety/ Side Effects

There has been no clinical research done on PhD Nutrition Diet Whey as a whole, therefore there are few records of significant side effects. However, some of the individual ingredients in Diet Whey may cause side effects ranging from headaches, fatigue, irritability and stomach troubles. A common side effect of regularly ingesting protein shakes is also gas and tummy troubles.

How to Take It

For one normal serving, add 25g (one scoop of powder) to 175ml of ice cold water and shake or blend. To super-size it, add two scoops of powder to double the water. Note that some customers advocate using more water than recommended or even mixing it with milk to thin out or improve the taste. Of course, adding milk will increase the calorie count.

It is fair to say that the protein and amino acids in PhD Nutrition Diet Whey should be able to help with muscle building and potentially muscle repair, though a 25g serving is very low in protein and should be double sized if you want to build muscle and not gain fat.

Green tea is also a well-known weight loss ingredient and may help to boost the metabolism. PhD Nutrition Diet Whey’s 100mg of green tea per 25g serving is unlikely to be enough to encourage weight loss, however. Experts theorise that you need to drink approximately two to three cups of green tea with between 120-320mg of catechins in each cup to have any effect. So it’s probably worth having two scoops for the green tea as well.

Overall, there’s very little clinical evidence – and none given on the official website – to support the use of Diet Whey as an effective weight-loss aid. If you’re primarily looking to drop fat, you may be better off using a weight loss supplement or diet shake backed by solid clinical research.

Here’s where it gets interesting, however. Despite all of the above, you can’t ignore the fact that more than 3,000 customer reviews on Amazon UK give PhD Nutrition Diet Whey a 4.1 out of 5 star rating. It’s obviously working for a lot of people, with many claiming to be losing weight. Many recommend it as an appetite suppressant in particular.

If you want to gain muscle while also losing fat, PhD Nutrition Diet whey could potentially do the job for you, alongside a healthy lifestyle. If nothing else, it may help you control your cravings, thanks to the flaxseed. It’s just a shame the protein count is so low.

PhD Diet Whey Review – The Best Diet Whey?

When it comes to finding a whey protein shake, it seems like there are endless options to pick from online. As well as the standard protein blends, there is an ever-increasing number of diet whey proteins. But is it really worth buying a diet product and if so, which one is the best? During this PhD Diet Whey review, we will take a look.

For most of us purchasing a whey protein supplement, it will generally be a typical powder of just whey protein concentrate. This is ideal for boosting the protein consumed in your diet, as whey protein provides a fast-acting and lean source of protein. In fact, the protein content is roughly 80%, far higher than the amount found in high protein food.

A diet whey protein typically contains several extra ingredients designed to support weight loss. These include ingredients such as green tea which raises the metabolism to support increased fat burning. For most users, we support using fat burner supplements separately to whey protein. But for those looking for convenience, a diet whey protein makes a great choice.

PhD Diet Whey Review

The PhD Nutrition brand was launched in 2006 with the mission to change the sports supplement landscape. Throughout their products, the goal to focus on honesty and reality has prevailed into a huge range of exciting supplements. The line-up includes a full range of protein-based products, including Smart Bars, which we are big fans of.

PhD Nutrition is now sold worldwide in over 45 countries and features thousands of positive reviews online. Diet Whey from PhD is widely marketed as the original and best diet whey protein. PhD was one of the first supplement manufacturers to bring a diet whey protein to the market and completely changed the game.

The shake features high protein and low carb blend to support fat loss. This supplement is suitable for both men and women looking to achieve greater fat loss results. To achieve this, PhD have combined protein with a range of ingredients to achieve increased fat burning including CLA, Flaxseed and L-Carnitine.

Taste & flavour

We are often big fans of the flavour when it comes to PhD products. In fact, PhD smart bars are some of our favourite protein bars on the market. The difficulty with diet whey protein powders is that they often don’t taste as good as their standard whey protein alternatives. This is often due to the added ingredients which support weight loss but don’t help the taste of the protein shake.

Luckily, there is a huge number of flavours of this supplement available, so everyone should be able to find a flavour that works for them. Over 12 flavours are available including chocolate, salted caramel and vanilla cream. Some unusual flavours are also available including cherry Bakewell and birthday cake.

We always prefer to stick with chocolate flavour protein shakes for the best taste, but its great to see such a huge variety. For those looking to use PhD diet whey every day, a great idea is to purchase 2 different flavours. This way, the flavour can be rotated on a daily basis.

The overall taste is great and very impressive for a diet whey shake. We did find the texture to be slightly thicker compared with other shakes. This is likely due to the addition of flaxseed. We compensated for this with more liquid. The flavour actually tastes like the flavour purchased, with little artificial taste or bad after taste.

Our favourite is the chocolate mint flavour. This shake could be mixed with water or milk, we find cold water best to avoid adding additional calories from milk. To get the best results, a protein shaker should be used and the bag kept sealed to ensure the powder is kept fresh.

PhD Diet Whey Protein

A high quality protein supplement containing a blend of three proteins for a constant supply of branched-chain amino acids. 34g protein per 50g serving.

Great macros are key for a diet protein shake and PhD diet whey delivers. Each 25g serving contains 91 calories. There is also 17g of protein and just 2.8g of carbohydrates. The low volume of carbs makes this supplement suitable for those following a keto diet.

The amount of protein in diet shakes is lower when compared with a standard whey protein shake. For example, MyProtein Impact Whey contains 21g of protein per serving. This is due to the additional ingredients which are a diet shake to support an increased fat loss.

PhD diet whey contains protein from multiple sources including whey protein concentrate, milk protein concentrate and soya protein isolate. The combination of different protein sources allows for BCAAS to be released into the blood-stream and absorbed by the body at different rates. This creates a drip-feed effect which keeps the muscles supplied with BCAAs over an extended period of time. Great for those on a calorie deficit looking to maintain muscle mass.

Further ingredients include flaxseed. This is ideal for those looking to increase fibre in their diet and provides a source of essential fatty acids. Green-tea is also in this supplement to support fat loss. We have discussed green tea extract many times when looking at fat burner supplements.

Green tea contains caffeine and catechins which can enhance thermogenesis . Therefore increasing the body’s efficiency in burning calories. Finally, there is L-Carnitine which is another popular ingredient for fat burning supplements. This amino acid transports fatty acid into cells to be processed for energy.

Overall, the macros for PhD diet whey are very impressive. The blend of protein is unique and ideal for ensuring muscles are supplied with amino acids. There are lots of great ingredients to support with fat loss.

Price

The price of supplement can often be the difference in whether we recommend it a lot. For supplements such as diet whey protein, it’s important to remember that it is going to be used regularly. This could be every day for some. The PhD diet whey range starts with a 500g tub which is priced at £14.99 on the PhD website. We would only recommend this size for testing a flavour for the first time, as its small enough to run out very fast.

The next size is 1kg which is priced at £27.99. The largest size is a 2kg pouch which is priced at £47.99. We do find this to be slightly more expensive when compared with similar products. For example, MyProtein Impact Diet Whey is priced at £22.99 for a 1kg pouch. However, as with many supplements, the price can be found for less when shopping around online.

The best value website for PhD diet whey is Amazon. Being Amazon, the price will fluctuate, but when writing this post the current price for a 2kg pouch is £30. The 1kg pouch is also noticeably less compared with ordering directly from PhD. When buying from Amazon, PhD is great value for money and contains much better ingredients compared with rivals at a similar price.

Overall, our PhD diet whey review has found it to be a great product that we would recommend. Diet whey proteins are becoming increasingly popular with those looking to increase fat loss, without necessarily consuming additional fat burning supplements. This protein actually contains many of the ingredients found separately in fat burners.

A good selection of over 12 flavours is available, ideal for those struggling to find a flavour they like. We love the idea of using two flavours if you will be consuming this supplement every day. The macros of this diet whey are good with 17g of protein in a 25g serving. Where PhD Diet whey stands out is the additional ingredients to support increase fat burning. These include green tea extract and L-carnitine. The price is expensive from the PhD website but is great value from Amazon where it can be found for less.

Overall we are fans of PhD Diet Whey Protein. The triple protein blend ensures muscles are supplied with a constant stream of BCAAs to maintain muscle mass. A good selection of 12 flavours are available. While expensive from the PhD website, this supplement is good value from Amazon.

Review: PHD Smart Bars

In a market now saturated with great-tasting protein bars which can hardly be distinguished from actual chocolate bars, perhaps it’s to be expected that nutritional values might slip. Is it too much to ask that a protein bar tastes good and does good?

Enter UK brand PHD’s Smart Bar range. Having long associated PHD with their old (before the re-vamp) ‘Diet Whey’ bars – all as bland, powdery and stiff as the last – I was reluctant to believe their claims about this new ‘delicious’ range. But, credit where credit is due, someone at PHD deserves a raise because these bars really are impressive.

The range boasts a minimum of 20g protein, all are low in sugar (under 2g) and all come palm oil free. Calories range from 237-241, and carbs around 22-24g. The only downside perhaps is the use of collagen and soy proteins, but it’s worth noting that milk is still the primary protein source.

At time of writing Smart Bars are available in eight flavours, and you’re about to hear my thoughts on all of them…

Chocolate Brownie
Cookies & Cream
Caramel Crunch
Choc Peanut Butter
Dark Choc Raspberry
Salted Fudge Brownie
White Choc Blondie
Birthday Cake

Chocolate Brownie 7/10

Among the most basic protein bar flavours, you really cannot go wrong with ‘Chocolate Brownie’, however you want to spin it.

The Smart Bar range all share the same basic layout – a chewy core, gooey caramel layer and plenty of crispies, all coated in a thick layer of chocolate.

The centre reminds of slightly hard nougat, with a chew that might leave some complaining of jaw ache. There’s enough caramel to lend a sticky feel to the bar, and the crispies work well here to give a satisfying crunch. The chocolate coating is the real highlight here – it’s thick, creamy and perfectly sweet. Overall, PHD have nailed the blend of textures here – chewy, gooey, crunchy and creamy.

The core has a light cocoa flavour, enhanced by all the other chocolate-y elements. Although the flavour is delicate when you first take a bite, it really intensifies as you chew (presumably as the chocolate layer melts) and you’re left with a deeper, darker chocolate taste.

If you’re a chocolate lover and you’re getting bored of the classic barely-there chocolate flavour of other bars, then this is one for you. I’ve given it a 7 because it’s not their best (or most interesting) flavour, but it is good and it’s certainly up there with other brands’ classics.

Caramel Crunch 5/10

After being impressed by the Chocolate Brownie flavour, I have to say I was a little underwhelmed by the ‘Caramel Crunch’.

The core has almost no flavour at all. Texture-wise it’s the same as the Chocolate Brownie, only perhaps slightly doughier. The caramel layer is nice and gooey, complimenting the bite of the core and lending that much-needed caramel taste, and the crispies do put the ‘crunch’ in ‘Caramel Crunch’.

To their credit, PHD have avoided falling into the trap of making this bar overly sweet. The dark chocolate layer has the perfect bitterness, and cracks satisfyingly when you take a bite. I suppose the mild core works to make it less sweet too, but blandness shouldn’t be the way to do this.

I wish they’d packed more caramel flavour into the core, and perhaps a hint of salt would have made the whole thing more interesting. Don’t get me wrong it’s not bad, it’s just nothing to write home about. A subtle caramel flavour means this isn’t one for hard-core caramel fans – if you need a caramel fix there are other options out there (see here , for example).

Cookies & Cream 6/10

I’ll roast my right foot if you can give me a brand that doesn’t boast a cookies & cream flavour, and I’ll happily eat said foot if that brand actually delivers on both elements.

The ‘cream’ element comes from the core. It has a sweet, milky sort of flavour which is in danger of being overall tasteless. The caramel layer rescues it somewhat, and the crispies are there for the crunch, but it is a little bland nevertheless.

I guess the ‘cookie’ element comes from the crispies and the thick milk chocolate coating, which is lovely and creamy, but it’s not exactly obvious.

Of course it’s not wholly unimpressive – it still tastes good and the mixing of textures is on point, but it seems PHD have fallen prey to a classic cookies & cream cock-up. There’s just undeniably more cream than cookie here, if there’s any cookie at all.

Choc Peanut Butter 5/10

Again, show me a brand that hasn’t exploited the lure of peanut butter in one way or another. It’s an absolute classic.

Looking back, I should have spotted a red flag when I opened the bar, expecting to get a nice whiff of peanut butter, only to find that it smelt faintly of cocoa and not much else.

I did notice there was more caramel than usual here, obvious since it had exploded from one end of the bar, bonding it to the wrapper.

That same chewy core, gooey caramel, crispies and thick chocolate coating that cracks when you take a bite…but no peanut butter. Seriously, the flavour was almost non-existent. It’s the same problem as the Caramel Crunch – there’s just no flavour. If I really concentrated I got a hint of PB but, if I’m honest, I really wasn’t looking for a mindful snack.

It’s not bad. Like the rest of the range, the four layers work really well together and the bar is obviously good quality, but if you promise peanut butter then please kindly follow through.

It’s a shame really. If PHD had packed the core with more of a PB flavour and replaced the crispies with peanut pieces as other brands have been known to do (see here , and here ) then this could have been a really banging bar. But, alas, t’was not so.

Dark Choc Raspberry – 10/10

I’ve said it once but I’ll say it again – I hate fruit and chocolate. Chocolate coated strawberries are the devil’s food, get your cherries OUT of my brownie, and there’s a special place reserved in hell for all those who enjoy black forest gateau.

BUT, there are exceptions. And this is one.

A chewy chocolate core coated in raspberry caramel, sprinkled with crispies and covered in a thick layer of rich dark chocolate. It’s perfect.

Once again the chew from the core nicely contrasts the gooey caramel and creamy chocolate coating, and the crispies add a wonderful crunch. The dark chocolate is slightly bitter, working beautifully with the zingy sweetness of the raspberry layer, and I love how it cracks when you take a bite.

Honestly it’s up there on par with Grenade’s recent offering of the same flavour. Amazing.

Salted Fudge Brownie 10/10

We love an unusual flavour! Plus, sea salt brownies are arguably the classiest type of brownie, so I went in expecting big things.

Reader, I was not disappointed. The centre is slightly softer than other flavours but milky and sweet, similar to the Choc Peanut Butter flavour (I’m not mad – there’s no peanut butter). As usual, the crispies add the crunch and the thick milk chocolate coating is creamy and cracks when you take a bite.

Whilst the rest of the bar is pretty great, hands down the star of the show is the salted fudge layer. It’s sticky and gooey like the caramel in the other bars but it has the perfect hint of salt, making the whole bar really taste like salted fudge. It’s truly gorgeous.

PHD have nailed the flavour here. The blend of salty and sweet is sophisticated and luxurious, the chocolate is excellent quality, and the softer centre makes the blend of textures even better than before.

This is a really solid choice for those who love chocolate but, like most of us, are sick of your bog-standard ‘chocolate brownie’ flavour.

White Choc Blondie 10/10

Whilst I know I’m an edge-piece person, for me it’s a tough choice between a brownie and a blondie. Call me a cynic, but as it’s not a flavour that you often come across in a protein bar, I did have my suspicions the ‘Blondie’ element was a bit of a sales gimmick…

…and I was right. I hate to be a know-it-all ( read: I love it when I’m right ), but this is just a white chocolate bar, very similar in fact to Grenade’s White Chocolate Cookie .

The core is milky sweet, like that of the Cookies & Cream flavour, with a hint of vanilla and much softer than previous bars. Whilst older flavours give your jaw more of a work-out, the newer ones are more nougat-y in texture and I definitely prefer it.

There’s plenty of caramel which makes the bar feel wonderfully sticky, and the cocoa crispies as usual add a nice crunch. With the cocoa crispies, I can see another dimension where this was marketed as the ‘Cookies & Cream’ flavour and, to be honest, it would be a better attempt than the current offering.

The white chocolate coating is the star of the show here. It’s thick, sweet and creamy, adding a really luxurious feel to this flavour.

Even though I feel misled by the promise of a blondie, I’m more than satisfied with this from PHD. Besides, I don’t know how they’d even deliver on the blondie flavour…

It’s a fantastic bar – one of my favourites ever.

Birthday Cake 8/10

So I’ve been quite very generous with the 10/10s so far, but the newer flavours have really smashed it. PHD have set a high bar for their newest release, in celebration of their second birthday – is this bar worth celebrating?

Birthday Cake has proved a difficult enemy to conquer, with most bars not getting it quite right – it’s too sweet, it’s just your average white chocolate bar with a few sprinkles chucked on or the ‘jam’ flavour just isn’t there.

PHD have brought the party with some extra multicoloured hundreds and thousands sprinkled on top, but in my opinion sprinkles are more of an annoyance than a feature. They might add some sense of texture, but they don’t add flavour and they have a knack of going everywhere .

The bar’s core is soft, chewy and lightly flavoured with vanilla. The raspberry caramel is similar to the Dark Choc Raspberry flavour – sweet but perfectly zingy. The cocoa crispies add crunch but little to no flavour, and the white chocolate coating is, as we’ve come to expect, thick and luxuriously creamy.

The raspberry flavour is really nice here, and the slight tang works well with the sweetness of the white chocolate. It’s not exactly birthday cake, but with this flavour I don’t know what I expect – it is a protein bar after all.

I think I prefer Grenade’s offering , but this one definitely isn’t bad if you’re a birthday cake fiend.

Advice on PhD diet whey?

I probably should have looked a bit closer before buying this as it looks like it's for losing weight when I am trying to do the exact opposite. I'm trying to build muscle mass so after a workout I mix a scoop with milk and have that. I don't replace meals with it or anything, so is it still effective as a protein shake to build muscle mass? Any help appreciated.

PhD Diet Whey Review: My Results After 30 Days

Written by James C., M.S.(C), PT

| Published on October 19, 2023

Mostly whey protein concentrate which is the cheapest source of whey.

Welcome to my PhD Diet Whey review, this is a protein powder that is marketed towards individuals who are looking to lose weight while maintaining muscle mass. The product is manufactured by PhD Nutrition Limited, a UK-based company that was founded in 2005. The supplement is designed to be used as a low-calorie snack between meals or as a post-workout protein fix.

Whey protein is a popular supplement for fitness and body building enthusiasts.

People who are dieting or getting shredded find the PhD diet whey replenishing almost like going for a retreat. PhD Diet Whey contains a protein blend of whey concentrate and soy protein isolate.

This helps with building muscle, recovery, and provides essential amino acids that support your body in many of its functions. On the other hand, though, many whey protein supplements are high in calories and have a high sugar content, sort of a double-edged sword.

In this review we will look at the ingredients, benefits, side effects and customer reviews of this product.

What is Phd Diet Whey

PhD Nutrition Diet Whey Protein is a protein supplement from PhD Performance Nutrition that is designed to help with lean muscle and fat loss goals. This protein powder is a blend of whey concentrate and soy protein isolate.

PhD keeps the carbohydrates and calories low, but the protein high in a serving, the idea being to limit the amount fat while you’re working on toning your muscles.

The mix of ingredients keeps you feeling full throughout the day and helps to keep the pesky sugar cravings at bay.

PhD Performance Nutrition are also the producers of the well-known testosterone booster PhD Test Matrix. Phd Diet Whey Protein combines ingredients that target muscle building and toning with those that support increase in energy and fat loss. It is essentially a high-protein, low-calorie blended supplement designed to help people attain their fitness goals.

The isolate forms of protein are more expensive to produce due to the complexity of their production. A thorough filtering processes has to be done to remove the unwanted parts of the protein such as lactose, carbohydrates and fats. Both whey protein concentrate and soya protein isolate go through this process.

Soy protein isolate is known to be slower to digest than whey protein such that it will keep you fuller for longer and provide your muscles with a steady supply of protein over a longer time.

If you look at the ingredient list, you will find that there is some micellar casein protein included in the mix. This is a much slower releasing protein and will definitely keep you fuller for longer, making the PhD diet whey ideal for a meal replacing shake.

Phd Diet Whey Ingredients

PhD premium protein blend contains some great additional ingredients to aid weight-loss, such as 2,500mg of Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) per 100g, green tea extract and acetyl L-carnitine and Milk Protein Concentrate (of which 80% is Micellar Casein). Let’s take a closer look at each of these and how they can help you lose weight.

Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA)

Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) is a vital fatty acid that is essential for good health. CLA is believed to help decrease the amount of body fat while making you feel fuller for longer. Naturally, for example, you can get higher sources of CLA from grass fed beef over the grain fed counterpart. It is also a potent antioxidant, which can help prevent and fight against cancer. Natural is the best way, but sometimes that’s just not possible and that’s where a good quality supplement can help.

Green Tea Extract

Clinical studies suggest that there’s a relationship between green tea extract and weight loss. Green tea extract burns fats and boosts metabolism. Researchers point to the catechins in green tea as being responsible for its fat burning properties. Green tea extract contains around double the antioxidant-active ingredients than both vitamin C and vitamin E. When combined with caffeine it is reported to be most effective. Green tea is packed with powerful antioxidant, cancer-fighting goodness! Polyphenols are the main antioxidant found in green tea extract. These have been found to help prevent cancer.

Acetyl L-carnitine

Acetyl L-carnitine is a form of the carnitine amino acid. The short story about how it works is that this powerful amino acid helps to transport fat into the cells to be used as energy. For the carnitine to be most effective, you should ensure that you have sufficient intake of omega-3s in your diet or get a good quality supplement. It’s fitting, then, that PhD have thrown in some additional flaxseed which is high in omega-3 fatty acids.

The full ingredients list is PhD Premium Protein Blend (Whey Protein Concentrate (27%), Milk Protein Concentrate (26%) (of which 56% is Micellar Casein), Soya Protein Isolate), Cocoa Powder, Waxy Barley Flour, Golden Brown Flaxseed Powder, Reduced Fat Cocoa Powder, Thickeners (Acacia Gum, Guar Gum, Xanthan Gum), Flavouring, CLA Powder (contains Milk Protein, Lecithin, Vitamin E) Acetyl L-Carnitine, Green Tea Extract, Sodium Chloride, Sweetener (Sucralose)

Phd diet whey Flavors

PhD Nutrition Diet Whey Protein comes in more flavors than most other protein supplement brands. Here’s a list of their inventive flavors: Vanilla Creme Strawberry, Belgian Chocolate, Banana, White Chocolate, Chocolate Mint, Lemon & Blueberry, Salted Caramel, Chocolate Peanut and Cookies & Cream.

The shake mixes well with no lumps in sight, but it is a little grainy, which is apparently due to the flaxseed.

Blending it with semi-skimmed milk (always tastes much, much better than with water) and a banana or some other frozen fruit will give a refreshing and tasty protein shake.

Who Is PhD Nutrition Diet Whey Protein Best For?

PhD Diet Whey Protein Powder is the ideal supplement for people looking to gain lean muscle mass while cutting body fat. It is high on protein but low on calorie and sugar which makes it perfect for people who are working out.

PhD Diet Whey Protein Powder is however not engineered to add bulk to someone. While it supports muscle recovery and growth, it isn’t mixed for building large muscles.

Some people are allergic to whey protein. If you know you are or have a sensitivity to it, do not use PhD Nutrition Diet Whey Protein.

Benefits of Diet Whey

Diet Whey by PhD performance Nutrition provides numerous advantages. The diet whey is a low-calorie protein shake which contains 36 G protein per serving, and also contains multiple sources that provides your body with different types of proteins released into the blood in various phases which offer an amino acid sputter effect.

Another advantage is Diet Whey’s low carb consumption of just a few grams and its low-calorie content means it can fit into almost every diet; whether you’re carb cycling, following a ketogenic (keto) diet or just looking for something tasty that is low in calories, diet whey would be the perfect option.

PhD Diet Whey Protein Powder Customer Reviews

We’re all different, but it’s helpful to hear what others who are on the diet whey protein supplement have to say about their experience.

Some customers had this to say;

Having tried various protein powders, I decided to give this one a try. It tastes delicious and is so smooth!

I bought this powder as a break from my regular protein powder from Protein World and I wish I never had. The texture is vile and doesn’t mix at all so when I attempt to drink it my mouth is filled with thick, sticky lumps of powder. The taste is also nothing like chocolate and is instead more like licking dust. The only way I have been able to use this powder is by downing it all in one and the only reason I continue to use it is because of how expensive it was. DON’T BUY IT. It’s not worth the money and is by far the worst protein powder I have ever tried.

And finally

Bought this a few weeks ago and have been using it in shakes and adding it into cooking/baking. It tastes amazing in protein pancakes and definitely curbs my chocolate cravings

PhD diet whey had an average rating of 3.0/5 on Trustpilot and 4.4/5 on amazon.

There is no such thing as a miracle fat burner, so you should not sacrifice a good, clean diet even if you are taking this. I’d recommend using it as a meal replacement. Perhaps mid-afternoon to stop you from snacking on biscuits or in the evening if that’s the time when you are most likely to pig-out on rubbish food.

Its efficacy is not conclusive but there’s definitely some positive results going by the customer ratings it has on various platforms. In addition, it contains some essential ingredients to help you, these little things do count and go a long way in making your body goals a reality.

It important to note that food supplements are intended to supplement the diet and should not be regarded as a substitute for a varied diet and a healthy lifestyle.

Good quality, tasty protein

SUSAN FLYNN

Great protein shake

Good quality

Excellent product

They have changed the recipe which means less protein and more calories.. time to switch brands.

Love the flavour of the salted caramel diet whey, adding it to porridge and yogurt-yum!

Really good protein

It is hard to review these as I mix all 3 purchases together - I like to do this and so all are good for me - so a happy customer

This product tastes great and is always top quality.

Jason Jones

Mixes easily, zip bag a little difficult to close but happy overall.

Andrew Taylor

Highly recommended

Salted caramel protein whey is the bomb! Best I've tasted!

Nice flavour , mixes well , really happy

I am writing a review for all 3 products I purchased - cookies & cream, vanilla creme and salted caramel. All of them are great and nice tasting. Mixes well and they certainly work well for me as a balance for my health. Oh I’ve mixed all three together

All good 👍🏼

Tastes great

Great taste, mixes well.

Sue Doughty

Bit too sweet

Used multiple times. Strawberry is by far the nicest flavour for me. Also tried salted caramel and banana and both are very nice. No issues

Gold standard whey or phd diet whey?
A whey protein will not help you lose fat.. It's mainly for building muscle but still some is needed for a healthy diet. PhD is a UK company assumingn that's where you're from and tbh they're not good. Prices are way way too high and the product itself I think you could get better for a much better price. Good luck!
PhD Nutrition Reviews
I trust the quality of PhD. I normally order proteins, BCAA, intra BCAA, lean degree and pre-workouts. All are great. I also tried Mind capsules and they did work for me. Customer service team (recent chat with Johnathan specifically) is always super helpful. Date of experience: July 01, 2024.

The PhD diet whey range starts with a 500g tub which is priced at £14.99 on the PhD website.

The largest size is a 2kg pouch which is priced at £47.99.
Review: PHD Smart Bars
Enter UK brand PHD's Smart Bar range. Having long associated PHD with their old (before the re-vamp) 'Diet Whey' bars - all as bland, powdery and stiff as the last - I was reluctant to believe their claims about this new 'delicious' range. But, credit where credit is due, someone at PHD deserves a raise because these bars really ...

Advice on PhD diet whey? : r/GYM
CoolAnxiety91. • 5 yr. ago. Personally, looking at the description on bodybuilding.com, I would say it would only be effective of you were on a high calorie diet, above maintenance.
