GNC 100% Whey Protein

Hey guys, I got 2 free 5-lb tubs of GNC 100% Whey Vanilla for Christmas from someone and I was just wondering if its ok to drink because each scoop has 70mg (23% DV) of Cholesterol. Im only 20 years old so im guessing this wont really matter but I was just wondering if you guys think that much cholesterol is ok. I have 1 scoop on non-workout days and 3 scoops on workout days (1 pre and 2 post) thanks!



Who needs OTC supplements other than Vitamins when theres so much god damned FOOD!?!?!

Don't worry about it.

Don't worry about cholesterol intake. Saturated fats raise blood cholesterol much more signficantly.

you should not be worried about "dietary cholesterol" unless you have high cholesterol, which I will assume you don't.

I agree GNC protein is somewhat high in cholesterol try Narture's Best Isopure- its better protein and lower in cholesterol
