Which protein powder

[Rykard Maximus]

Hi all,

which protein powder gives the best results? Loaded question i know, but looking for opinions. Do i go for the 'named' brand that is £20 more or a lower cost option?

Best powders are blends in my opinion. Whey is only useful immediately after a workout.

My favs include...ISOMATRIX by Syntrax...Pro Peptide by Dorian...Advanced Protein by Biotest...Pro Fusion by Muscle Link...Protein Plus by Met RX...

I do not know how we would know which is the best!

You would have to search to see if there are any independent labs that have analyzed different brands. I once found test results for creatine, which listed all of the brands that were tested, and which ones actually contained what the label claimed.


However, I like EAS SimplyProtein??? Complete Whey.

I like EAS, Optimum is good and if you want a good choice of blends check out www.proteinfactory.com
I have tried several blends, if it says taste not so good, they mean it! Comes in bulk(bag) Good product though.

Brand name doens't matter much. Just make sure to get whey isolate, not whey concentrate.

Hey Crowman, why isolate and not concentrade? I think I heard that the isolate doesen't give you protein farts.. Is this why?

 

[gopro]

Whey isolate is a "purer" protein than concentrate, however, concentrate has its advantages over isolate as well...........hmmmm, this may make a good article.

 

[THE_GAME]

what are they advantages of each one?

 

[Mule]

Mine is a mixture of both concentrate and isolate!!! Hows that??

EAS Simply Protein is pretty good and can't beat the price $28.00 for 80 servings. I take it like if I was taking a shot goes down quick. Strawberry is pretty good!

A few weeks ago I was running short on cash and had to get some protein. I went to GNC to look around. The Rep suggested "Just Whey" from Sportpharma. It was inexpensive and has worked great for me. Im on my second canister and fixing to buy another. I use to use twin-lab. I basically liked it because it was sugar-free but it was expensive. Anyways Im hooked on Sportpharma and will continue to use it.

EAS Simply Whey to supplement my red meat, tuna, eggs and milk intake.

protein powder

Rykard,list what you want in a protein powder,then match the protein powder you use against your wants.For myself I want it to taste good;Iwant it to be smooth-not lumpy even if I mix it in a hand shaker in the gym;I want it to be a whey protein-"COLD PROCESSED" for greater absorption;lastly I want it to be "state of the art"Over the last 4 years we have been fortunate to be able to gym test every major protein powder in our gym from every major franchise ,the proof is in the gym.Nexus is the #1 choice in Ed's Gym.It's breakthrough in being able to combine L-carnitine is a real plus.I had to pose for some shots for our website and was a little smoother than I wanted to be.Nexus claims the l-carnitine burns fat at the cellular level.I put it to the test and in two weeks I was really ripped for my shoot.Use common sense in picking your protein-read the label-and choose wisely.MaryJean
