What is the best Whey protein shake?
Something with the least fat and calories, and most protein. And where can I get it?
How long is a piece of string…..
Much is going to depend on if you want to buy it on line, or from bricks and mortar. Then there’s the question of do you want a simple protein or a complex (with additives like creatine, HMB, and amino acids added).
A good place to start would be a visit to a GNC store or Health Food store, and physically looking though the info on the different products. I’d actually advise you not to take advice from the staff, they usually have their own motivations and apply these to everyone who asks for advice (human nature I guess).

Off the top of my head:
Nutrisport do a decent protein that’s around 98% and under 200kcals per serving, it’s a mix of fast and slower release whey protein though, but it’s cheap, and you can get it by the bucket (5kg bucket I think).
Maximuscle Cyclone, this is the brand leader apparently. Their Cyclone product is a complex, it contains a good amount of protein (though less than the Nutrisport) but more of it is fast acting proteins. The downside is the cost, it is expensive.
My Protein Hurricane. A UK bulk protein supplier’s Cyclone clone, weight for weight about 1/3 the price of Maximuscle Cyclone but with a very similar formula. Only available online at the current time, but a great supplier all the same. If you are in the UK mail me via Y!A and I’ll give you a discount code (it’s only 5% but that’s better than nothing).
