Advantages: Realistic flavouring

Disadvantages: It is a food supplement whilst being cheap for its market, food is always cheaper.

Reflex is one of the best known supplement manufacturers in the UK and for a very good reason. Firstly being the quality of their whey protein is superb, i believe it is 80% protein of a dry basis of 100grams. So whilst it is a supplement it is also a food source at the same time, so great not only for athletes but for individuals who struggle to meet their GDA of protein, such as vegetarians or people with a diet low in meat produce.

Anyway, around to the review itself. Reflex instant whey comes in an array of flavours, I have tried banana before so shall comment on this. In my experience Banana is often the flavour that most manufacturers just can't get right, be it a milkshake flavouring or whey protein, 9 times out of 10 it tastes awfully artificial, however Reflex seem to have created a taste much closer to that of a real banana and not so sweet and sticky as most other brands. So for that reason i vote flavour 9/10.

As for the products mixibility, it dissolves in a small amount of water or milk (approx 300ml) quite easily and you are left with a liquid consistency that is easy to drink. So texture i rate 9/10 again.

As for price, it is very affordable, most branded whey proteins can charge upwards of £10 per lb however reflex instant whey can be picked up for around £6 per lb so massively cheaper.
Not only that but reflex also produce an economy range of whey protein at their sister company sports-nutrition.net so for that reason i rate value at 10/10.

Summary: A great supplement for recreational athletes or those interested in maintaining a healthy diet.
