Read that earlier. What the hell? If they can bull**** about some of their products, they probably bull**** about all of them. Currently only use Muscle Fuel for in between meals, but my creatine is Muscletech. Which brands can actually be trusted, though?

Your local grocer and butcher ;)
Apparently Biogen is also one of his brands?
All that said, I have no doubt all big marketing firms employ the same tactics.
Vitamin water? Why not pick on the company that bottles that placebo.

I trust no brands.All i take is glucose for energy ( that is the only thing actually made in your own body for energy) and I use raw eggs for protein shakes.
There is no regulations for any RSA company making supplements.Its a free for all.

SA Suppliments Pure Whey Vanilla is the best tasting (at least from what I've tried). Regte egte vanilla milkshake flavour. Occasionally I would throw an egg into it.
Taste is everything :D

Eat whole food and eat properly. Don't waste your money on supps. That's my take. Though that preworkout is calling me lately lol. Preworkout is easy to gauge quality though.

I need 2 servings of whey per day for my protein intake it's a real inconvenience chowing down 1kg of steak during meeting.

Price? And do you add your own flavouring?

How does it taste unflavoured?

I paid nothing, im in the dairy industry.THose bags go for R1500 - R2000.Im waiting on the protein analysis to come back before i start taking it every day, but it tastes bland.I down raw eggs so i dont care about taste, only nutritional value.

Well that works out R80 per KG, flippen much better than R200 per KG.
Will you be willing to start selling to follow MyBB memeber at say R110 per kg?

Edit.Last time i was told i have to buy like tons before they will consider selling to me, they are not willing to sell single 25kg bags to the public :(.

12 eggs are cheaper and better for you :D

I know he was poster child for a myriad of supps but was he really taking them? I have my doubts about those muscle and fitness reps actually using the stuff that they pose for. That said, Arnie was obviously taking roids and probably a few supps.

Did you know that Chat Le Clos chows Futurelife before he swims? :D
I can only imagine what the pool would look like if he did.

This. I'm a practical eater too. Do you know what kind of analysis is being done on the whey? I'm keen to hear. I'd love to have a home test kit for macros where you can do your own analysis. Just a pity the most common protein test registers melamine as protein lol.
 
Just a quick thing... You guys know cooked eggs are better than swolling them raw right ?

In what way? Digestion? Certainly is quicker to make a shake with raw eggs. I always thought denatured protein was digested and broken down differently. At least we don't have major salmonella issues here like they do in the UK or some parts of the US.
