Common Questions
Is Clear Whey different from normal whey protein?
Both can provide high-quality whey protein. The main difference is the drinking experience. Clear Whey Isolate is formulated to produce a lighter, fruit-flavoured, juice-style drink when mixed with water instead of the creamy texture associated with traditional whey shakes.

Trust & Pharmacist Advice
Protein requirements vary according to body weight, age, overall diet and level of physical activity.
Protein contributes to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass, but a protein supplement does not replace resistance training, sufficient energy intake, sleep and an appropriately balanced diet.
You do not have to consume Clear Whey immediately after exercising for it to contribute to your protein intake. Total protein intake across the day is also important.
People who already obtain sufficient protein from their normal diet may not need a protein supplement.
This product contains milk-derived whey protein. Anyone with a diagnosed milk allergy should not use it.
People with significant kidney disease or another medical condition requiring restriction or monitoring of protein intake should seek advice from their healthcare professional before using high-protein supplements.
Not Suitable For
Not suitable for:
- People with an allergy to milk or whey
- Vegans
- Anyone advised to restrict protein intake unless approved by their healthcare professional
People who are pregnant, breastfeeding, taking medication or managing a medical condition should seek professional advice if uncertain whether a sports nutrition supplement is appropriate for them.
How to Use

Do not exceed the directions on the current product packaging.

FAQs
1. How much protein is in Optimum Nutrition Clear Whey Isolate Blackcurrant?
Each 24g serving provides 20g of protein from whey protein isolate. Protein contributes to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass and the maintenance of normal bones. The 480g tub provides approximately 20 servings, making it a convenient option for people who want to supplement their normal dietary protein intake.
2. How many servings are in the 480g tub?
The 480g tub provides approximately 20 servings when prepared using the recommended 24g serving size. This makes it approximately a 20-day supply if you use one serving each day, although how frequently you use it will depend on your diet, protein requirements and training routine.
3. How many calories are in one serving of Clear Whey?
A 24g serving provides approximately 82 kcal. It also contains 20g protein, 0g fat, 0.5g carbohydrate and 0.1g sugars. This gives Clear Whey a high protein-to-calorie ratio compared with many conventional drinks, although your total daily nutritional intake remains more important than any individual product.
4. Does Optimum Nutrition Clear Whey help build muscle?
Protein contributes to the growth of muscle mass. Each serving provides 20g protein, so Clear Whey can contribute to your daily protein intake when combined with an appropriate diet and resistance-training programme. The supplement itself does not replace training, adequate overall nutrition or recovery.
5. Does Clear Whey help maintain muscle?
Yes. Protein contributes to the maintenance of muscle mass. This is an authorised nutritional health claim for protein. Clear Whey provides 20g protein per serving and can therefore provide a convenient source of dietary protein alongside protein obtained from normal foods.
6. Is Optimum Nutrition Clear Whey sugar-free?
The current nutritional declaration provides only 0.1g sugars per 24g serving, and Optimum Nutrition markets the product as zero sugar. For EU labelling purposes, the nutritional declaration on the actual Irish-market container should always be treated as the definitive information when purchasing or using the product.
7. Is Clear Whey the same as a normal protein shake?
It serves a similar nutritional purpose by providing dietary protein, but the drinking experience is different. Traditional whey protein powders typically create an opaque, creamy shake. Clear Whey is designed to mix with water to create a lighter, fruit-flavoured, juice-style protein drink.
8. How do I make Optimum Nutrition Clear Whey Blackcurrant?
Mix approximately 24g, or around 2 level scoops, with 400ml of water and shake until dissolved. Shaking clear whey can initially create some foam, so allowing the drink to stand briefly before drinking can improve the final clear, juice-style consistency. Follow the instructions on your individual container.
9. When should I drink Clear Whey Isolate?
Clear Whey can be consumed after exercise or at another convenient time during the day. There is no requirement to restrict it exclusively to the immediate post-workout period. Its primary nutritional role is to contribute protein towards your overall daily intake.
10. Is Optimum Nutrition Clear Whey suitable for lactose intolerance?
Optimum Nutrition describes this Clear Whey as very low in lactose, at approximately 0.2%. However, tolerance to lactose varies considerably between individuals. Importantly, low lactose does not make the product suitable for someone with a milk-protein allergy because whey protein itself is derived from milk.
11. Is Optimum Nutrition Clear Whey vegan?
No. Clear Whey Isolate is made using whey protein isolate, which is derived from milk. It is therefore not suitable for a vegan diet. Someone wanting a vegan alternative should choose an appropriately labelled plant-based protein product instead.
12. Can I take Clear Whey every day?
It can be incorporated into a daily diet when appropriate for your individual protein requirements. Protein supplements are intended to complement rather than replace a varied diet. Your overall protein requirement depends on factors including body weight, physical activity, training goals and normal dietary intake.
