The World's #1 Best-Selling1 Protein Powder Brand Dials Up its Flavor Offerings

The new Gold Standard 100% Whey Fruity Cereal and Cinnamon Roll flavors provide 24 grams of high-quality protein – offering consumers a delicious way to reach their daily protein goals and fuel their post-workout or support muscle recovery. Designed with versatility in mind, the powders can be enjoyed first thing in the morning, before or after exercise – either mixed with milk, or water or incorporated in a smoothie.

Gold Standard 100% Whey Fruity Cereal Protein Powder: With great-tasting fruity notes, the powder is reminiscent of a childhood breakfast favorite. Gold Standard 100% Whey Cinnamon Roll Protein Powder: The new flavor offers a pastry-inspired combination of cinnamon spice, sugar and vanilla frosting flavors.

"I recently turned 37 and as I've gotten older, I've found the combination of working out and getting the right amount of protein helps me reach my fitness goals," said Brett Brown, TV personality and fitness enthusiast. "I've been using Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard 100% Whey as a source of protein and to support muscle recovery post-workout for over a decade. Double Rich Chocolate has always been my go-to flavor, but I recently added the new Fruity Cereal flavor in my rotation to add some variety."
