I'm running out of the overpriced GNC 100% Whey stuff I bought when I started lifting, so I'm in need of advice. I've been looking through polls and threads and now I am hoping to get some more specific information.
I hear people are now boycotting Optimum and their 100% Whey because of the company practices, so maybe I should abstain?
As far as quality, taste, and price, should I go with Optimum or Allthewhey?
Also, the Optimum claims to have 4 g glutamine per serving, so would I need to supplement my l-glutamine still or is this a sufficient amount if I'm taking a post-workout and before bedtime shake? Users on here mostly say 25 grams is a must daily for dramatic results.
If I do need an l-glutamine supplement, would something like alltheywhey's
Also, what are the opinions on allsportsnutirion's super cheap solid whey powder?
Additionally, would I want a Whey Protein Concentrate, Whey Protein Blend, or Whey Protein Isolate? And are there better supplements out there that provide a mix of casseine and whey in the same mix?
And finally, if these brands are no good, suggest a better one.
Like I said, I'm a relative newbie and have only used the GNC 100% Whey, which seems frowned upon, so despite the research I've done I'm greatly in need of your informed and experienced opinions. Thanks a lot, I hope you can help!
