We have not personally tested this product; our review is based on the current label information, price, manufacturer disclosures, customer-review patterns, and relevant protein research.
GHOST built its name on pop-culture flavor collaborations and a young, social-media-savvy fanbase — not exactly who you’d expect us to be covering on a site for active adults 40+. But its Clear Whey Isolate is worth a look on the numbers alone: 25 g of protein per serving, the highest of any clear whey we’ve reviewed so far, with virtually nothing else on the label.
Quick verdict
GHOST Clear Whey leads the category on protein per serving — 25 g at only 100 calories, 1 g of carbs, 0 g of sugar, and 0 g of fat. That’s a meaningfully better ratio than the 20 g options we’ve covered from Isopure and NutraBio. The tradeoff is brand positioning: GHOST leans hard into novelty flavor drops aimed at a younger audience, and per-serving price is on the higher end of the category.

What we like
- Highest protein-per-serving in the category so far. 25g beats the 20g standard set by Isopure and NutraBio, meaning fewer servings needed to hit a daily target.
- Essentially zero everything else. 0g sugar, 0g fat, 1g carbs — about as clean a macro profile as clear whey gets.
- Frequent new flavors. GHOST regularly rotates in limited-edition collaboration flavors alongside a permanent lineup, which keeps things interesting if you get bored of a tub quickly.
What to consider
- Highest price per serving of the three we’ve reviewed — roughly $2.75 versus $2.49 (Isopure) and $2 (NutraBio).
- Brand identity skews younger. GHOST’s marketing, packaging, and flavor collaborations (candy and soda brand tie-ins) are clearly built for a Gen Z/younger-millennial audience, which may or may not matter to you beyond the product itself.
- Limited-edition flavors can go out of stock — if you find one you love, it may not be a permanent flavor.
How it compares
Gram for gram, GHOST is the most protein-dense clear whey we’ve reviewed, which can make it the better value if you calculate cost per gram of protein rather than cost per tub: roughly $0.11 per gram versus about $0.125 for Isopure. NutraBio still wins on raw price per serving and third-party testing disclosure. If maximizing protein per scoop matters most, GHOST currently leads; if minimizing cost or prioritizing full label transparency matters more, NutraBio is the stronger pick.
Who it’s for
Good for: anyone who wants the highest protein dose per serving in the clear whey category and doesn’t mind paying a bit more for it. Less ideal for: strict budget shoppers, or anyone who prefers a more clinical, no-frills brand presentation over flavor-drop marketing.
Bottom line
GHOST Clear Whey earns its spot on protein-per-serving alone — 25g with almost nothing else on the label is hard to beat in this category. The brand’s younger-skewing marketing doesn’t change what’s actually in the tub, so if the higher price per serving doesn’t bother you, it’s a legitimate top pick.
