Our verdict
Grenade suits UK buyers who want a single protein powder at a low entry price alongside creatine and pre-workout, rather than a broad sports nutrition catalogue. The listed powder starts at £29.99 and works out at £1.20 a serving, with 21 g of protein in each one.

Pros and cons
Pros
- Serving cost of £1.20 puts Grenade at 16 of 46 brands, so the per scoop number is the strongest thing here.
- Third-party tested, with informed sport and vegan listed as certifications, so buyers who screen for banned substances have a named scheme to check.
- whey protein, protein bars and creatine covers protein and training products, so a whey tub, creatine and a pre-workout can come from one supplier.
- Grenade (UK) Ltd has traded since 2010, which makes it an established UK brand rather than a new listing.
- Entry price of £29.99 keeps a first order cheap, even with the tub price sitting at 32 of 66.
Cons
- Support runs on help centre and email only, with no phone line or live chat in that list.
- 1 flavour in the protein powder collection gives shoppers who dislike the taste a single option and no fallback.
- whey protein, protein bars and creatine is narrower than Body Attack, which also lists plant protein, electrolytes, meal replacement and mass gainer.
- 21 g of protein per serving places Grenade at 30 of 43, below the 24 median for protein powders.

Scored 8.9 / 10 by ThriveCue.
Who it suits
- UK shoppers who want whey protein at a low cost per scoop and only need creatine or a bar alongside it.
- Anyone who puts third-party testing and a named certification scheme above flavour choice.
- Buyers who would rather take protein and pre-workout from one UK brand than mix suppliers.
Who should look elsewhere
- Body Attack, for shoppers who want electrolytes, meal replacement or a mass gainer in the same order.
- HUM Nutrition, for anyone who wants plant protein rather than the whey-first range Grenade sells.
- Myvitamins, for buyers who want electrolytes alongside protein and creatine, since whey protein, creatine and electrolytes covers that and whey protein, protein bars and creatine does not.
How it compares on our data
On price from, Grenade ranks 32 of 66 brands in the comparison, which is mid field rather than a budget floor. Serving cost tells a different story: 16 of 46 is a far higher placing, so the per scoop figure is where the brand beats most of the field. Protein per serving lands at 30 of 43, so the case for Grenade rests on what a serving costs rather than on how much protein sits in it.
Core features
The listed powder carries 21 g of protein per serving, a mid range figure for a whey product rather than a high protein one. Grenade states its range is third-party tested, and the certifications listed are Informed Sport and vegan, so anyone screening a product for banned substances has a named scheme to check. The protein powder collection lists 1 flavour, which is the thinnest part of the offer and the first thing to weigh if taste matters to you.
Prices
The figure to weigh at entry is £29.99 for the listed Oreo protein powder, and the running cost is £1.20 a serving. Both come from the same tub, so a first order is judged on the entry price while a daily habit is judged on the serving figure, which is the number that repeats with every scoop. No membership or renewal rate is listed, so those two figures are the only ones to carry into a comparison with another protein brand.
The company behind it
The business behind the brand is Grenade (UK) Ltd, based in the United Kingdom and trading since 2010, so there is a named company behind the products rather than a trading name. Support runs through help centre and email, so questions reach a help centre or an inbox. For a shopper with an order problem, that means written replies rather than a spoken one, which is worth weighing if an urgent delivery is on the line.

Frequently asked questions
How much does Grenade protein powder cost?+
The listed Oreo protein powder is £29.99 at entry, and that tub works out at £1.20 a serving. Both figures come from the same product, so the entry price matters for a first order while the serving figure is the one that repeats if you drink it every day. Compare the serving figure against other protein brands, not the tub price.
How much protein is in a serving of Grenade protein powder?+
A serving of the listed powder gives 21 g of protein. That sits in the middle of the protein powder field rather than at the top, so Grenade is a cost pick for anyone who wants a steady daily amount without paying a premium for the highest protein figure. If you are chasing a specific protein target, check that against your own numbers before ordering.
Is Grenade third-party tested?+
Yes. Grenade states its products are third-party tested, and its listed certifications are informed sport and vegan, which includes Informed Sport. That matters for anyone who competes or wants reassurance that a product has been screened for banned substances, since a named scheme is easier to check than a general quality claim.
Which countries does Grenade sell in?+
Grenade sells in GB and its headquarters country is GB, so this is a UK brand serving a single market rather than a global store. Anyone ordering from outside the UK should check delivery reach and the terms that apply to their address before buying a tub, since the listed market does not cover them.
How do I get help from Grenade?+
Support runs on help centre and email, so a help centre and email are the routes in. There is no phone line or live chat in that list, which means an order problem is handled in writing. If you need an answer quickly, it is worth allowing more time than a spoken conversation would take.
What kinds of supplements does Grenade sell?+
The range covers whey protein, protein bars and creatine, so protein and training products sit under one brand. That is enough for a simple stack of protein plus creatine or a pre-workout, but a shopper who also wants electrolytes or a mass gainer will need a different brand. Body Attack lists a wider set of formats for that kind of basket.
How many flavours does Grenade protein come in?+
The protein powder collection lists 1 flavour, so variety is not the reason to pick this brand. Shoppers who care about choice, or who need a flavour they can tolerate every morning, get more from a brand with a longer list. Grenade is chosen for price and testing instead.
Who runs Grenade and how long has it traded?+
The brand is run by Grenade (UK) Ltd, based in the United Kingdom and trading since 2010. That gives shoppers a named company to hold to account rather than a trading name, and a history long enough to judge on price and consistency rather than on how new it is.
