**Ass Monster** · 03-25-2002, 11:57 PM

Sup fellas? I'm a college kid tryin to get a cycle going and I was wonderin' if you guys know of any cheap, but quality, protien sources...whether that be in food or powder form. Any ideas?

are you freeking stupid!! mods - can't u do sumthing about idiots like this!!

for your info, jelly has about 40g of protein per 100g( powder weight)!!! thats almost double that of chicken or tuna. sugar free jelly - because any idiot on this site can tell u that sugar is BAD! gees, u have a serious attituted problem

xenithon does suggar free jelly contain much carbs????
Know any other tasty cheap protein source with 0 carbs?

hi johan

well, the ones I get here are pretty much carb-free. if u are keeping away from artificial sweeteners like aspartame, phenylanaline, stevia etc. then watch out cause jelly is full of em, but I'd rather have those than pure sugar

no others that I know of - thing is most sugar free jellies are also gelatin free and thus have almost no protein. I was able to find sugar free with gelatin, and I verified it to be like 40g/100g protein. it tastes soooo good you can even eat it out the packet, or sprinkle the powder on some fat free cottage cheese.

most other carb-free protein sources are fairly expensive like cold meats and smoked meats, but I generally find it to be worth it AND a whole lot cheaper than having 4-5 protein shakes a day.

You better watch what you say kid. You just got here and already causing controversy. Take a chill pill or something.

If you ask a question, wait for answers. If someone give you an answer and you don't like it, then don't listen to it and just wait for next one. Don't make offensive remarks. This site is to help people not to mean to them.

As for cheap protein, here is one.
Protein powder:
OPTIMUM PROTEIN 5lbs $25

and sorry for any offense caused by my attack in him in my 2nd post. i just REALLY get frustrated when ppl ask questions to which I have a decent answer and they treat it like a joke and insult me or anyone else. and just for anyones info if they are interested:

as you see gelatin based jellies are really good, cheap protein sources, just make sure once again that they are GELATIN BASED and dont have alternatives like pectin which I dont think has any protein.

Interesting website

**edraven29** · 03-26-2002, 10:52 AM

hey xenithon where can i buy gelatine ??? is it available at the grocery store.

And are sweetners that bad???

thanks man

**xenithon** · 03-26-2002, 01:13 PM

sup edraven,

pure gelatine - i really don't know. I'm sure if you ask a health shop they may know the actual suppliers of the stuff. I have seen the gelatine leaves, which you can buy at almost any store - used to make homemade jelly, terine etc. but haven't seen the pure powder.

about sweeteners - not that bad really!

there have just been so many rumors about how some sweeteners cause arthritis, and some cause cancer etc. etc. But most of those only came about if you have like 20g of pure sweetener per day haha. i have not seen any threat in any articles/studies so I believe they are cool.

**Ass Monster** · 03-26-2002, 11:31 PM

Alright alright alright...I am sorry about the comment. I thought he was tryin to be funny...I mean c'mon now! When I think of protien, the LAST THING on my mind is SUGAR FREE JELLY!!! So I thought he was bustin' my balls. But enough excuses...sorry to the Big X...and thank you for letting me know that!! No hard feelings! Peace...A.M.

**Ass Monster** · 03-27-2002, 12:43 AM

Hey X....where can I find some Sugar free jello with Gelatin? Isn't gelatin an incomplete protien?

**xenithon** · 03-27-2002, 01:23 AM

i found it at a helath shop but have also seen it at many supermarkets here. have you been to http://www.gelatine.org/de/relaunch...elatin_wig.html ?
there u can get all the nitty gritty about the protein structure and all. what do u mean by 'incomplete'?

**Ass Monster** · 03-27-2002, 01:27 AM

An incomplete protien is a protien that doesn't have all the ESSENTIAL Amino Acids that our body can use. I think that might have an effect on the quality of that protien. Does anyone have any input on this?

**Billy Boy** · 03-27-2002, 02:32 AM

Protein is made up from amino acids so I,m not totally convinced about jelly,be nicwe if it was true!

Milk,eggs,tuna cheap and good sources of protein
