Clear protein is a different kind of protein experience — light, refreshing, and nothing like the thick, creamy shakes you might be used to. Instead of a milky texture, these formulas mix into something closer to a flavoured water or fruit drink, delivering a serious protein hit without the heaviness. Whether you're after whey, collagen, or a plant-based option, the clear protein range covers the bases.
Each product in the range is built around high-quality protein sources — from hydrolysed whey protein isolate to collagen peptides and plant-based blends — all designed to deliver protein contributes to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass1 in a format that actually feels good to drink. If you've ever struggled to get through a thick shake mid-session or on a hot day, this range makes a lot of sense.
Who Clear Protein Products Are For
Anyone who wants a high-protein option that doesn't feel like a meal will find something here. These products are popular with gym-goers and active people who want to hit their protein targets without the fullness that comes with traditional shakes — especially useful around training when lighter sits better.
The range also works well for those who are simply tired of standard protein flavour profiles. If you prefer something fruity and refreshing over vanilla or chocolate, clear protein is built for you. It also suits people exploring collagen-specific formats or plant-based protein sources that step away from pea or rice protein powders in shake form.
When to Use Clear Protein Products
The light, water-like texture makes clear protein particularly well-suited to drinking around workouts — before, during, or after training — when a thick shake can feel uncomfortable. Many people also reach for it during the day as a straightforward way to add protein to their routine without the caloric density of a meal replacement.
Clear collagen protein is often used differently — worked into a daily routine as a consistent source of hydrolysed collagen peptides, whether that's first thing in the morning or alongside a meal. Timing is flexible, but consistency tends to be the focus with collagen-based formats. Whatever your preference, all formats are quick and easy to prepare — just mix with cold water and go.
Clear Protein Products Benefits
A Refreshing Alternative to Traditional Shakes
Where standard protein powders mix into thick, creamy drinks, clear protein mixes into something much closer to a squash or fruit drink. The result is light, easy to drink, and genuinely refreshing — particularly on warmer days or when you want something that doesn't sit heavily.
Serious Protein in Every Serving
Don't let the light texture fool you — these aren't low-protein options. Clear Whey Protein Powder and Clear Collagen Protein Powder both deliver 20g of protein per serving, meaning protein contributes to the maintenance of muscle mass1 without compromise. Clear Vegan Protein provides 10g of plant-powered protein per serving in the same refreshing format.
Multiple Protein Sources, One Category
The range spans three distinct protein sources: hydrolysed whey protein isolate, hydrolysed collagen peptides (Type I and III — the types most abundant in skin and connective tissue), and a plant-based blend. That means you can find a clear protein product that fits your dietary preferences or training focus without settling.
Informed Choice Certified
Clear Whey Protein Powder carries Informed Choice certification, meaning it's been tested for banned substances by an accredited sports testing programme. For competitive athletes or anyone who takes third-party testing seriously, that's a meaningful tick in the box.

FAQs
What is clear protein?
Clear protein is a category of protein supplement that mixes into a light, water-like drink rather than a thick, milky shake. Made from hydrolysed protein sources — such as whey isolate, collagen peptides, or plant-based blends — the hydrolysis process breaks proteins into smaller fragments that dissolve cleanly in water, creating a refreshing, fruit-flavoured drink. It delivers the same protein content as traditional formats but in a completely different texture and taste profile.
What's the difference between clear protein and regular protein powder?
The main difference is texture and formulation. Regular protein powders — typically made from whey concentrate or casein — mix into thick, creamy shakes, often with a milky base. Clear protein uses hydrolysed protein sources that dissolve into a lighter, more translucent liquid, closer to a fruit drink than a shake. Both deliver protein that contributes to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass1, but the experience of drinking them is quite different. Clear protein tends to suit those who find thick shakes too heavy, especially around training.
Which clear protein should I choose?
It depends on what you're looking for from your protein. Clear Whey Protein Powder is the go-to for a high-quality whey source — 20g of protein per serving from hydrolysed whey protein isolate, with Informed Choice certification for added peace of mind. If collagen peptides are your focus, Clear Collagen Protein Powder delivers 20g of hydrolysed collagen per serving, specifically Type I and III. For a plant-based option, Clear Vegan Protein offers 10g of protein per serving in the same light, refreshing format. Your dietary preferences and protein goals will point you in the right direction.
How much protein is in clear protein products?
Clear Whey Protein Powder and Clear Collagen Protein Powder both provide 20g of protein per serving. Clear Vegan Protein delivers 10g per serving. All three are designed to contribute to your daily protein intake — protein contributes to the maintenance of muscle mass1 and to the maintenance of normal bones2, making it a key nutrient for active people.
Is clear protein suitable for vegans?
Clear Vegan Protein is specifically formulated for those following a plant-based diet, offering 10g of protein per serving in a light, refreshing drink format. Clear Whey Protein Powder and Clear Collagen Protein Powder are not suitable for vegans, as they're derived from whey (a dairy by-product) and bovine collagen respectively.
What is hydrolysed collagen protein and how does it differ from whey?
Hydrolysed collagen protein is derived from collagen — the structural protein found in connective tissue, skin, and bones — that's been broken down into smaller peptides for easier mixing and digestion. Clear Collagen Protein Powder uses Type I and III collagen, the types most abundant in skin and connective tissue. Whey protein, by contrast, comes from milk and has a well-established amino acid profile. They're different protein sources suited to different goals and preferences — it's not a case of one being better, but rather which fits your routine.
Is clear protein Informed Choice certified?
Clear Whey Protein Powder carries Informed Choice certification. This means it's been independently tested for substances prohibited in sport by an accredited third-party testing programme. For competitive athletes or anyone who prioritises verified, tested supplementation, this certification is worth knowing about.
How do you make clear protein?
All clear protein products mix with cold water — simply add the recommended serving of powder to water, shake or stir, and it's ready to drink. Cold water works best to maintain the light, refreshing texture. Unlike traditional protein shakes, these don't require a blender and don't mix well with milk, which would counteract the clear, fruit-drink-style finish they're designed for.
Who developed the clear protein products?
The clear protein range was developed by Myprotein's expert nutritionists, who formulated each product to deliver genuine protein content in a refreshing, easy-to-drink format. The range reflects a focus on both nutritional quality — including third-party testing where applicable — and real-world usability for active people who want more from their protein supplement.
Can clear protein be used as a daily protein source?
Clear protein products can be used as part of a daily routine to top up protein intake alongside whole food sources. Protein contributes to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass1, making it a relevant nutrient for anyone with active lifestyle goals. How you work it into your day — around training, during the day, or as a convenient on-the-go option — is entirely up to you and your overall nutritional intake.
