What is the best brand of whey protein?

[jstone]

The real scary part is no one knows how much of the protein is actually soluble into the human body. I say the best is a slice of NY strip Rare-med rare. But I am biased. Shakes to me for anyone that is not past their genetic threshold is like a woman with short hair. Lazy.

I will take a steak any day over a shake. A 5 pound thing of protein lasts me a long time. I usually only have a shake when time doesn't permit eating a meal. Like at work when I only have 3-4 minutes to get something down.

The sad thing in this industry is that your brand muscle feast is probably doing the same thing. It looks like I will be sticking with Rule1. I was going to pick up some of the American pure whey, but not now.

Check out Rule1 there protein is great, its a little spendy, but I usually buy the 100% isolate. They also have a whey blend thats a little cheaper.

If you do a little research on protein you will find even some of the biggest brands spike there protein or mis lable it. I only use ON, and Rule1 recently.

Muscle feast is not doing that at all, in fact I've been using them since 2010, call up to order, they have always hooked up great deals and full size retail samples. They stick by their products, and have real analysis to back it up.

Also exclusively employ disabled vets.



American pure whey.
They don't even have people at the place answering phones

Way more sugar, fat and carbs than label states as well as 22g less protein.

I will ahve to look into the sucralose, but I have seen testing on the rule1 to show proper protein content. However that could change anytime. Dont beleive that any company is above lying on there label. The sad thing is that we shouldn't have to scrutinize our whey lime we do ugls, but we do. I haven't been using much protein, because my main food sourcw right now is mega stuff oreos, but in the future I will stick with egg whites.

I ran across that FDA memo a few weeks ago and agree it is alarming.

From where are you getting those testing result numbers?

Ah I got them from the fda page iirc.

There was soo much I read on them lemme dig it up,

Ok here is unreported allergens

I agree there are a few questionable business practices going on at APW and I probably won't be ordering from then in the future.

I would like to make a few points.

The lowry dc test quoted by garrison connection isn't meant to be used for protein powders.

I'm hesitant of labdoor's product ratings because like APW they do some shady work with numbers.

For instance a protein powder that claims 30g per serving but actually has 20g will score higher than a protein that claims 15g per serving and actually has 15g.

I don't understand how they clame the protein per serving is 4.7g when the average is 26g.

If true, the bound protein is the real disappointment.

Once again I'm not advocating for APW just pointing out that every company manipulates numbers to make themselves or select products look better.

Isn't mean the amount supposedly specified? Not doubting you, just trying to learn/understand

That could mean the amount of protein APW specifies is in a serving, but I thought that was 29 or 30g.

I'm over using protein for a while.

I find spending $0.65 for a can of tuna with a few ounces of sauteed kale and rice a great replacement.

Right on, I was thinking the same thing, only egg whites from aldis , lol

I just looked at all my supps and virtually every 1 has sucralose. The only one that didn't is my NVS Labs protein. They use stevia, and its pretty good protein, they add a lot of extra glutamine, BCAA'S, and creatine. I think I might keep buying that to add a little flavor to the egg whites.

True Nutrition for me. Never had any issues and have been a long time customer.

Yeah sucralose and acesulfame potassium
