Those who are about to buy cocoa-flavored protein powders should be aware that their protein content is on average 5% lower than the same product enriched with other flavors (strawberry, hazelnut, etc.). In fact, while in the cocoa (or chocolate) proteins the flavoring used is generally the common cocoa powder, in the other products artificial concentrates are used added in rather modest quantities, equal to 0.1 - 1% by weight.
To maximize the protein intake, therefore, the choice should focus on other flavors, in particular on vanilla, which is added in modest quantities for its taste similar to the original Whey product.Also by virtue of the considerable economic savings, rather than buying cocoa proteins, it is therefore preferable to choose the neutral product, and then possibly add cocoa directly into the mixer or blender.
