"It mixes fairly well - but with water it is basically undrinkable to me (chocolate flavour). Far too much sweetener and the resultant mix is hard to get down... however, mixed with about 3x the weight of good natural yoghurt it's a bearable pre-bed "dessert", albeit still too sweet! If you can afford the calories/dairy then I recommend this, it works better than milk too, the richness of the yoghurt seems to balance the sweetness a bit. [Sure, one can "man up" and neck it anyway... but really, if something doesn't have to be unpleasant then why should it be?] Can't comment on effectiveness, don't know enough - it's protein, I presume it "does what it says in the tin" (gotta just trust these things sometimes...) Does seem to aid recovery a little better than plain milk protein. Definitely sits better in the stomach! (This bumps it up to a 4.)"

"Have been using this product for nearly two years. It mixes fine, tastes good and most importantly of all it works. It keeps me feeling full until the morning and I don't wake up as hungry. Am seeing good gains in the gym and would recommend."

Overall a great product... you can avoid the chalkyness by mixing the drink around half an hour before you take it... It works for me!

"Bought the choc smooth, but was not all that smooth and didn't taste all that good with water. I ended up using milk and a blender to make it better."

"I'm not sure i understand why people are saying that the taste stays in your mouth? could always drink it and then brush your teeth before bed, just saying.. results>bad taste (which is cured by teeth brushing) therefore it looks like a win win."

"i can see what people mean with the chalky grainy taste but heyho just man up and down it with 250ml water and thats that, after a week i have noticed fantastic gains as i couldnt afford the bedtime extreme and could only take whey morning pre and post workout, its a great product just ignore the bad taste as it is chalky and grainy but like everyone else is saying, man up and drink it because its not the taste we want its the results!!!!!"

I have been taking this for a month now and i disagree with those saying it doesnt mix well...i have no trouble with it compared to other protein shakes. The taste is amazing and i look forward to taking it each night... and it definately works because i never wake up hungry anymore so it is definately forfulling my hunger throughout the night!

Mixes easy and tastes great. (chocolate)... can be used for dieting and bulking imo.... Excellent value for money like all other MP products...

"SOLUTION TO EVERYONE MOANING ABOUT ITS TEXTURE.. It is a casein protein, all casein proteins are grainy/chalky however I like to mix the chocolate smooth with 1 tablespoon crunchy peanut butter, I add a little soya milk (any milk would do, or even water) until its a pudding consistency and every night I feel like i'm eating a Snickers bar. It's great. Any moaners should give it a go :) I'm a female on a fitness model mission and I swear by MyProtein for all my supplements and Bedtime Extreme is no different"

"To all those that say it tastes terrible and struggling to neck it. MAN UP!! It is slightly gritty but nothing to moan about. I have been using the choc smooth and cannot fault it, I actually look forward to it. Try the crap from holland & barrett then you'll know all about gagging when necking a shake. "
