    GNC products

    What do you think of the GNC line of supplements? or do I have to be more specific? I don't really have a particular thing in mind...just wondered if anyone thought that GNC made quality products.

    Their quality is top notch.....lots of money to do research. But just too expensive!

    GNC????

    I`ve heard many times on different boards they buy thier whey from Optimum. Or more accurately, Optimum sells them their inferior quality whey that they wouldn`t use in thier own products.

    Apart from that, they are way too expensive.

    BTC, you`ll be able to buy cheaper from 1fast400 or dps even when you add the shipping on!

    Depends on what you are looking for.
    Protein-Optimum Nutrition is good
    Creatine-Pro lab is good
    Those are the only supps. I use so you may have to waite for some more replys.

    You'll save killer bucks buying your supps online. GNC is immensely overpriced. For example a 3.3 pd bottle of Prolab N-large 2 is $29.99 at GNC, at 1fast400.com it's 15.99. And 1fasts 10 pd bottle is only $37.00. DG806, if you aren't ordering from 1fast400 you need to be. I'm in NC like you and he cuts you a good deal on shipping cost if you are in NC.

    I agree with David on their protein powder. It has a good taste, and it seems adequate. However it isn't worth the price. I did have a guy at the gym sell me a 6 pd bottle that was over half full for $5. That was worth it. Hey Buff! I'm the same way! I'm addicted to looking at the site!

    I am currently taking GNC's Women slow release mult vit. It has a ungodly percentage of most things...I think calcium is only @ 50% of rda so I have to supplement that. It was on sale...$10 off large bottle. 180 tabs (2 per day) for $15.99. I like then so far...but won't continue to buy them if I have to pay $26 for one bottle.

    It's most likely true and they will suffer in sales..... GNC is my last resort, anyways!

    Ive used both the Weight Gainers and 100% Whey protein and I cant complain about anything, their protein tastes pretty good. Ive noticed most people on this board usually slam GNC, so its good to hear some positive comments for once.

    Hey Buff - I ordered from DPS and got 2-5lbs tubs of ProLab protein (with shipping) for $54. I can't speak for 1fast400, never ordered from there before.

    (DPS was cheaper in price on the ProLab protein)

    The only GNC product I use is the men's multi-vitamin. I mean, where else can you get 2500% of your daily RDA of riboflavin?

    Personally I buy all my supps from 1fast400.com except, now, my protein.

    My protein I get from proteincustomizer.com

    Just yesterday I ordered 10 lb bag of nighttime blend (you blend you own if you like) and a 10 lb bag of post w/o whey. Good stuff, and ridiculously cheap.
