“ Started using this as a slow release night time protein to help with recovery, to stop muscle breakdown and have as a pre bed-time meal. I bought the Vanilla Creme one after getting a free sample of it and in my honest opinion I'de go as far as to say it's the best tasting protein that I've ever had, the texture of it is quite strange but it's only like a smoothie type texture anyway so nothing bad about it! I noticed when using a Casein protein before by NRGfuel that I wasn't sleeping easy, and I had a fair few strange dreams, but with this I'm sleeping fine and I'm not waking up in the middle of the night hungry. I've been seeing some results with using it and the Synergy IOS-7, as well as hard training but I've noticed my recovery times are better, and I'm feeling stronger and more up for it every time I hit the weights and nowhere near as sore afterwards. In all I cannot fault this product and have, and would again, recommend it to people. Some people say about the price of the PhD products but I've found they are by far the best products about that I've ever used and that is the reason I keep going back to them and getting their protein, the price definately reflects on the quality and science behind them. Only one thing that I can fault about it is the big packaging that it comes in, the bag takes up a lot of space whereas personally I find the tubs easier to store and less likely to tip over, but out of everything that can be said about them I really don't think thats too much of a flaw! 10/10 product. ”

“ Bought this as an anti-catabolic supp. before bed. Quality is extremely high as always with PHD, packaging fine with resealable bag. Ingredients are second to non in this product, far better than reflex etc, and the inclusion of bonded Glutamine and Flaxseed shows this. Mixability suffers slightly from the different proteins used and the flaxseed but the taste is very good (belgian choc), not too sweet or sickly. Overall a top product that i cannot recommend highly enough, particularly if you are training very hard......There is no such thing as overtraining, only under-recovering! ”

“ PhD Pharma Blend 6hr is a brilliant product, if you take it 20-30 minutes just before bed it will keep you full and more importantly your muscles fed until morning. Note that the mix-ability isn't too great if you don't shake it for more than 3 minutes. However once you have got all the big clumps broken down it taste amazing - I have always bought the Banana one as the taste an flavour is great. Overall I would give this product 4 out of 5 stars as it does what it says on the tin. It provides 42g of protein that is slowly released while you sleep and provide essential fats. Last point, always mix with milk as it only improves the flavour. ”

“ PhD Pharma 6hr is a very good product in regards to keeping your muscles fed whilst you sleep. I find that if I take 2 rounded scoops 20-3- minutes before bed with milk (make sure it is with milk as it enhances the flavour) it keeps me full until the morning. But you need to mix and shake the two scoop for about 3 minutes, vigorously, to get a smooth drink. I have always chosen the Banana flavour and I feel this is by far the best tasting product - maybe even on the market. But again, try not to mix it with water and it leaves a dull taste. Overall I would give this product 4 out of 5 stars as it tastes great, provides 42g of protein and essential fats, keeps your muscles fed and prevents muscle wastage over night but just needs to improve its mix-ability. ”

“ Phd do it again with a great tasting product. I guess this is because they are a uk based company so all there products meet the slightly less sweet tooth of the British customer rather than the heavily over sweet US products. The mix is a little grainy but this is due to the flaxseed that gives you some good omega 3 supplementation. The mix of protein types mean you are nourished throughout the day or as I use during the night. Use with the other phd products such as Pharma Gain or Synergy to give you a complete range of proteins and other muscle building ingredients. With these products a good diet and heavy training you will have all bases covered to get the muscle gains you want ”

“ A huge fan of PhD products because of the taste. This Pharma Blend 6HR is a winner and a loser. The Belgian Choc flavour is nicer than any other casein shake I've had but is extremely thick (I used double the amount of water to get over this) and very very very sweet. I actually don't mind the sweetness too much because late at night I tend to get extreme cravings for sweet foods so that blasts that out of the way! Good gains, and a good protein source just don't expect the same taste and smoothness as PhD Synergy Choc! ”
