The combined dietary supplement Synta-6 from the BSN brand consists of several types of proteins with different rates of their utilization by the body. The drug is one of the top sports nutrition products, since one serving can solve several problems: saturate muscle fibers with amino acids, create a reserve of nutritional components in the body. Synth is convenient both when working on muscle building and during the period of muscle structuring and weight loss. The supplement makes it possible to form the required amount of muscle without excess fat and blocks catabolism.

Protein Syntha-6 Isolate
When ordering a large package from bodybuilding.com, I decided to add a small can of protein from BSN called Syntha-6 Isolate for testing. 7 servings are enough to form an opinion about the protein, but if something doesn’t suit you, you won’t have to regret wasting your money. In general, I often order such samples along with the main order. Economically, such small packages are of course not very profitable, but for “trying and deciding for yourself whether it’s worth buying”, they are good. I don’t write the final price, because... it was a small thing added to a large order.
about the store
BB.com is the world's largest online store of sports nutritional supplements and accessories for bodybuilding and fitness, it has the widest range and an excellent reputation.
They work with PayPal. When compared with other stores, it usually turns out that it is more profitable to place large orders with BB.com, and small orders from other sites. There are always some promotions on various products PRO Syntha-6 Isolate
Each company that produces sports nutrition has its own “locomotive” products, which are the personification of the company and pull the entire product line behind them. For BSN, such locomotives have long been the Syntha-6 protein and the NO-XPLODE pre-workout mixture. Relatively recently (in scale) a new protein appeared in the line, which was called Syntha-6 Isolate. Apparently, marketers decided that including the name of the old product in the name of the new product would emphasize their relationship and promote sales. To what extent it was justified, I don’t know.

Well, for those interested, an advertising description:
description
BSN Syntha-6 Isolate is a balanced dietary supplement containing protein isolates. This product's unique protein matrix combines fast-digesting whey isolate and milk protein, which is a high-quality source of casein, a slow-digesting protein. Thus, the rapid absorption of whey isolate and the slow release of milk casein amino acids allows you to quickly recover from workouts and nourish your muscles throughout the day. In addition, Syntha-6 Isolate, like any of BSN's products, has a great taste, and also contains half as much fat and carbohydrates as BSN's classic Syntha-6 and, accordingly, can have a wider range of applications and target audience.
Protein powder Syntha-6 Isolate from milk and whey protein isolates is used to prepare delicious shakes, the use of which supports protein synthesis in the body, and, therefore, stimulates muscle growth, and also helps muscle tissue recover after physical activity. In addition, this protein shake is a balanced nutrition for the body, providing it with various nutrients.
Due to its low calorie content, Syntha-6 Isolate is ideal for consumption between meals and before bed. By taking it, you can build up lean muscle mass without fear of increasing the volume of subcutaneous fat.
So, BSN Syntha-6 Isolate has the following advantages:
— helps to recover after training; — nourishes muscles throughout the day, maintaining the required level of amino acids; – ensures protein synthesis in the body and rapid muscle growth; - Helps keep weight under control.
Compared to its analogues, this protein stands out, in my opinion, for two features: 1. The combination of whey isolate and milk isolate is atypical. Whey protein isolates are commonly sold. Here Platinum Hydro Builder from Optimum immediately comes to mind, which combines whey, casein and egg proteins, although not an isolate, but a hydrolyzate. 2. High carbohydrate content is atypical for isolates. But this is typical for Syntha-6, which generally occupies an intermediate position between gainers and proteins.
IMPRESSION
I have a can of Chocolate Milkshake flavor. Excellent for my taste! It’s delicious with milk or water.
Mixability is good. In the video, I just stirred it in water with a spoon. The shaker generally stirs in a couple of strokes. Although, a shaker will generally stir everything
The consistency is peculiar. The mixed protein turns out to be a little thick, or rather it’s not even thick, but some kind of suspension of grains, visible in the video. Many people like it, many people hate it, so you just have to keep it in mind.
In general, taste is a very individual thing. For this same protein, in particular, reviews range from “amazing taste!” to “disgusting taste! It’s as if I drank water with undissolved flour.”
There were no problems with assimilation.
In principle, this is all that can really characterize a protein. It’s funny, but questions like “wait! Well, what about the results? After all, the main thing is what result is obtained from this protein! Does it work better or worse than the other? What about the mass? The question is stupid to begin with. Protein is a banal food product; it cannot “work”. Asking a question about the result “on protein” is as funny as pestering the cashier at the supermarket with questions “is this chicken really working for you?” How much muscle mass will I gain from 10kg of these chicken breasts? But this cottage cheese works better than those chicken eggs? Which one is better to take?”
RATIONALE FOR PURCHASING Syntha-6 Isolate is not a very cheap protein. The same Gold Standard from ON is noticeably cheaper in terms of servings ($0.81 per serving versus $1.12 when buying large cans), and even among pure isolates you can find cheaper options. In this regard, the question naturally arises: “is it worth overpaying for Syntha-6 Isolate when cheaper and at the same time high-quality proteins are available?”
In my opinion, in terms of the impact on sports results, there is no really noticeable difference in quality. Therefore, you should not expect that if you buy Syntha isolate more expensive than another option (we are, of course, not talking about Atlanta, but about normal proteins), you will get some kind of increase. What we really get when purchasing it is a non-standard taste and consistency. Some people will like them, some won't, but in reality this taste is not like the others. I know that many people really don’t like boring, monotonous tastes and are looking for something original. In this case, the taste is original, not like most.
CONCLUSION: a good protein with an original pleasant taste, but a high price
Z.Y. no need to suggest testing it with boiling water Z.Z.Y. Just in case, I ask you not to write nonsense about the terrible harm of all this crap and the need to train “by yourself”, without this chemistry. But experience shows that asking will not help; they will write anyway. Well, if a person is determined to make himself look like an idiot, no one can stop him.

Peculiarities
For Cinta, it is not appropriate to compare with other dietary supplements, since it is the standard of sports nutrition, it is a leader. The BSN brand is a world-famous brand that occupies a leading position in the sports nutrition market. Since 2011, it has been acquired by the transatlantic giant Glanbia, part of the Optimum Nutrition empire. In other words, all “competition” is nothing more than internal competition between companies of one owner, who owns the global sports nutrition market.
If we talk about the advantages of the biocomplex, the main thing is its multi-protein content. The combination of proteins guarantees anabolic support that has no analogues. Not a single whey protein or isolate, except Synta, begins to actively work within half an hour after administration. This speed is achieved by ultra-purifying the product, allowing it to be absorbed at a high speed.
Another feature is the prolonged anabolic effect of the biocomplex for 6-8 hours, which competitors simply do not have. This effect is ensured by slow proteins obtained through innovative purification of the drug.
Cinta has the best taste. BSN is the only brand that has a huge range of flavors, there is even mint chocolate. The only negative is the use of dyes.
The mixability of the complex is also at a high level. The powder dissolves within 5 seconds, in any liquid, without sediment. It turns out a little thick.
Features of the composition
Syntha 6 Isolate: composition features
This food supplement, which is characterized by a rich composition. The full spectrum of elements necessary for muscle growth is present here. The basis of the complex is casein and whey protein. The rapid penetration of nutrients into the athlete's muscles promotes their recovery and growth.
The purity of this product is one of its main advantages. The fact is that the composition practically does not include carbohydrates and fats, which are unnecessary during the drying process.
Important! One serving of the product contains 25 grams of protein and 7 grams of carbohydrates. The percentage of fat here is slightly greater than protein. The calorie content of one serving does not exceed 120 calories. That is why Syntha 6 Isolate is very popular among those athletes who watch their figure.
Thanks to its well-balanced composition, this supplement stands out significantly from its competitors. This is one of the most popular options among both beginners and professionals. In addition, the complex has an excellent taste, and therefore the supplement is not only healthy, but also tasty.

Method of administration
There is no clear answer about how to use Synta-6. A lot of things matter here: body type, type of workout, your budget. Nevertheless, trainers advise using the supplement after exercise. It is better to meet the daily protein requirement with regular food. Getting the required daily protein with a complex can cause the appearance of extra pounds. Usually the drug is taken several times a day, preferably in the morning, to block catabolism.
Use Sinta in the form of a cocktail: dilute 2 scoops in milk or juice. You can add fruit, honey or jam.
The complex combines well with other dietary supplements, but is not the main source of protein for the body. The developers constantly emphasize the fact that Cinta cannot replace the protein of fish, meat, mushrooms and other foods.
Men are recommended to take Cinta several scoops in a glass of water or any other liquid. You can vary the amount of liquid or powder to achieve the optimal taste. The daily norm is from one to four doses, depending on the goal.
Women are advised to use one scoop per glass of liquid. You can also change the ratio of powder to liquid for optimal taste. Number of servings per day: from one to four. It depends on how quickly you need to achieve results. If milk is used for stirring, it is better to take low-fat or low-calorie milk.
How to take it correctly
BSN recommends 2 to 4 servings of protein per day. The powder should be diluted in 250-300 ml of water or milk (additional calories). Complex protein is recommended to be taken between main meals:
- between breakfast and lunch;
- between lunch and dinner;
- an hour before training.
Multi-component protein after training is not as effective as a full-fledged whey version, which is absorbed by the body within 30 minutes. Taking an additional source of protein is necessary for the restoration and synthesis of new muscle fibers in the athlete’s body. A person who spends time in the gym needs protein in large quantities. "Sinta-6" is a good option for additional protein in an athlete's diet on an ongoing basis. It can be used in conjunction with other sports supplements: creatine, BCAA, gainer, etc.
