SucraloseSweetener
Dose context matters. As a trace excipient in a tablet coating or capsule, the amount is minimal and not a meaningful concern. The evidence below applies to the gram-level intakes typical of sweetened protein powders, pre-workouts, and drink mixes: a 2022 human trial (Suez et al., Cell) showed sucralose disrupts gut bacteria and worsens blood sugar control in healthy adults, and a 2023 study (Schiffman et al.) found that sucralose-6-acetate — a compound formed when sucralose is digested — was genotoxic to human cells in vitro. It remains an artificial sweetener with no nutritional purpose.
Acesulfame PotassiumSweetener
Older NTP rodent studies (1980s, contested) reported lymphoma and leukemia at very high chronic doses; modern reviews (FDA 2003, EFSA 2000) concluded no cancer risk at human exposure levels but the issue is not fully resolved (Mishra 2020 review). Animal evidence suggests gut microbiome disruption (Bian 2017 — male mice on Ace-K showed altered microbiota and metabolic markers). Manufacturing uses methylene chloride, with potential residue concerns. Purely cosmetic additive — risk:benefit unfavorable for supplements.
Natural FlavorsFlavor
Broad regulatory category of flavor constituents derived from natural sources. Composition is proprietary and not disclosed — 'Natural Flavors' can include several hundred different compounds depending on the target flavor profile, including hexane-extracted constituents and proprietary carrier solvents. 'Natural' is a regulatory definition (21 CFR §101.22), not a safety guarantee.
CocoaFlavor
Common food ingredient used for chocolate flavoring in supplements
Sea SaltFlavor
Basic food-grade salt used for taste in supplements
Sunflower LecithinEmulsifier
Non-GMO, non-allergenic emulsifier derived from sunflower seeds
Xanthan GumThickener
Natural thickener from fermented carbohydrates
How to Take It
Take it anytime
Total daily protein is what matters — the post-workout "anabolic window" has not held up in controlled trials.
On the label
Add 1 scoop with 6 ounce of cold water or your favorite beverage to a shaker cup or blender and mix for 25-30 seconds. Vary the amount of liquid to meet your desired taste and consistency. Using nonfat milk instead of water will give you a thicker, creamier shake.
General guidance based on the ingredients, not a substitute for the label or your doctor.
