AG1 (Athletic Greens) vs Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard 100% Whey
Sqwod verdict
Our pick: Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard 100% Whey takes it — 85 vs 66.
Both are strong — the call comes down to what you prioritise:
- AG1 (Athletic Greens) — You are busy, won’t reliably eat varied produce, want a banned-substance-tested all-in-one, and the price is not a barrier.
- Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard 100% Whey — Anyone who wants a proven, lab-tested all-rounder whey with reliable taste and mixing.
AG1 (Athletic Greens)
66Score · Low
from €87
A well-made, exhaustively tested convenience greens — but a premium price, undisclosed blend doses and thin independent evidence make it hard to justify over a solid diet.
Our pick
Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard 100% Whey
85Score · Medium
from €78
The genre-defining whey. Consistently high crowd ratings, excellent mixability and Informed-Choice/banned-substance testing make it a safe default; you just pay a premium versus no-name whey.
