Syntha-6 Edge Protein Powder 1.78kg for Recovery and Daily Protein Intake
BSN Syntha-6 Edge delivers 24g of protein per 39g scoop at 155kcal, with 4.5g of carbohydrates, 3.7g of fat and 1.1g of sugar. The protein blend combines whey protein concentrate, whey protein isolate, whey protein hydrolysate, micellar casein and egg albumin across five sources. The 1.78kg tub provides 48 servings.
The five-source protein matrix is the defining characteristic of Syntha-6 Edge: fast-absorbing whey fractions (concentrate, isolate and hydrolysate) deliver an immediate post-exercise amino acid spike, while micellar casein and egg albumin provide a sustained amino acid release profile over the following hours. This combination makes the product more versatile across the day than a single-source whey - useful both immediately post-workout and as a higher-protein meal replacement or pre-bed shake.
Syntha-6 Edge is marketed on taste and texture as much as on macros - BSN engineered the formula specifically around flavour performance, and it has held a reputation for this in the category for years. At 24g protein and 155kcal per serving it is not the leanest option on the market - users who need single-digit fat per serving and 90-100kcal will find isolate-first products more suitable. But for gym-goers who want a protein powder they genuinely look forward to drinking, the multi-source formula and flavour quality are the selling point.
Built for daily gym-goers and physique athletes who want a versatile multi-source protein for post-workout, between meals and pre-bed use, and who treat taste compliance as a practical factor in long-term adherence. Not the optimal choice for cutting phases where every calorie is accounted for. Contains milk and soy.
