Myprotein
Pros
- Price per serving of £1.10 puts it at 10 of 46 brands on cost per scoop, the strongest ranking in the set.

- The Impact Whey range carries 40 flavours, which cuts the odds of a repeat order going to waste.
Cons
- Entry price of £32.99 ranks 44 of 66 brands, so the headline figure is not the cheapest on the market.

Questions about each
Myprotein
How much does Myprotein protein cost per serving?+
The Impact Whey range works out at £1.10 per serving, and each serving carries 22 to 23 g of protein. On cost per scoop that places Myprotein at 10 of 46 brands compared, which is the figure to watch if you order regularly.
Is the entry price on Myprotein the cheapest?+
The range starts at £32.99, and on that headline figure Myprotein ranks 44 of 66 brands compared. Cheaper entry prices exist in this category, so the first order is not where Myprotein leads. Its strength is the per serving cost that follows.
Transparent Labs
How much does Transparent Labs cost to start?+
The range starts at $64.99, which ranks 57 of 66 brands in our price data. Ordering on a subscription reduces each delivery by 10%. Buyers who only want one tub pay the entry figure, while regular buyers pay less per order.
How much protein is in each serving?+
A serving carries 28 g of protein, which puts the range at 10 of 43 brands in our protein powders comparison. That is the strongest argument for the price, since cheaper options often give less protein per scoop.
