Protein Powders - Not Healthy?
I just saw a news story with the headline "Protein powders, not as healthy as you think." They mentioned a bunch of brands and claimed that they had faulty nutrition labels. ON's 100% whey (which i use) listed 10 mg of cholesterol, when it really has 19 according to a lab test. What does this mean for me, if anything?

dietary cholesterol is only an issue with someone that already has a serious cholesterol problem, which is usually hereditary to begin with.

OK...so eating foods high in cholesterol will not raise cholesterol levels, is that right?

I am guessing it is your diet....possibly all that cholesterol you have been ingesting.

Simpsons Said it best about cholesterol
Homer Simpson: I saved your life. That egg sandwich could'a killed you by cholesterol.
Lenny: Pfft. Forget it Homer.While it has been established that eggs contain cholesterol, it has not yet been proven conclusively that they actually raise the level of serum cholesterol in the human bloodstream.

You're farting so much because of all the gases/nitrogen and fluids that is being released while your digestive system is processing all the extra protein. try adding in a few high grain carbs (nature's valley oat n' honey) to solidify it all up... at least this worked for me.

I may just be stating the obvious here but you may be lactose intolerant. Are you mixing your whey with milk? Originally Posted by nmuriqi
