FAQs
When is the best time to take Gold Standard 100% Whey?
The best time to take it is within 30-60 minutes after your workout to support muscle recovery. It can also be taken at any time of the day to supplement your protein intake.
Can I mix it with milk instead of water?
Yes, you can mix it with milk, almond milk, or any other beverage of your choice. Milk will increase the protein content and provide a creamier texture.

While it can be used in a pinch, it's best to supplement a well-balanced diet. It is not designed to replace whole food meals completely due to a lack of essential nutrients.
What is the recommended serving size?
The recommended serving size is typically one scoop, but always refer to the product label for specific instructions.

Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Ensure the container is tightly sealed.
Troubleshooting
Clumping in the powder after mixing.
Use a shaker bottle or blender to mix the powder thoroughly. Ensure you add the liquid first, then the powder. Using cold water can also help prevent clumping.
