WHEY PROTEIN POWDER 908g-2lb muscle build(%100 whey) on eBay, also Protein Shakes Bodybuilding, Vitamins Supplements, Exercise Fitness, Sporting Goods (end time 21-May-09 14:29:39 BST)

I like the fact that its tasteless, and i could add it to my porridge or weetabix on a morning, and its cheap too.

What do u think?

anyone????

Sorry couldn't load the page so i've not been able to look at this.

I've been told though, by friends that use protein daily, that the more you spend the better the quality of the product, now just from a purely logical point of view i'd have thought it was not really possible to have a 100% protein product as that would mean there was nothing else in it ?

Hun, I took a look and even though the stats look good the product looks 'suspect', I would be worried that I was being ripped off. In this case, cheaper is not better and without the 'security' of a branded product who knows what is actually in it!

I would not buy it and would caution others to think twice, but that is just my opinion.

HTH,
Nic

 

[FEDup1981]

yeah i know what u mean. Thanks for taking a look. I would prefer something i could mix into my food rather than horrible shakes or drinks. Ill keep looking x

dear fed up holland and barret do a plain soya protein there own brand at a good price ,found it when doing research as im pre-op hope this helps

 

[Silversurfer]

I did a websearch on the company

Cheap Quality Protein Supplements

They are a ligitimate company, though if you take a look at the site they dont sell this protein as cheap as this on ebay, so makes me wonder !

As i said, i'm no expert but as my old Gran used to say, "if it smells like sh**e it probably is"

 

[FEDup1981]

Holland & Barrett do a body fortress when protein, natural one, on offer at 14.99, but i cant see any details on whats in it, does anyone know if thats any good?
