I don't think there are ingredients in Xtend that will give you an energy boost. Personally, there's no difference for me. Also, there's always the possibility of it being a placebo effect

My Myofusion Probiotic review (Strawberries and Cream)
I always go 8parts milk with 2 parts water + 2 scoops of whey. This one is thicker than the previous Myofusion. There's like a thick layer of foam above it.
Tastewise, it's pretty decent. It's not overly synthetic. However, if you are looking for a strong strawberry flavour then you would be disappointed. The flavour is rather subtle, like a slightly watered down milkshake.
I didn't like the banana flavour which everyone raved about, but this one is pretty nice. In terms of taste, it would be :
Chocolate (old myofusion), Strawberry ( Probiotic ), Banana (old myofusion)

I've always had good luck with supplements, until I got this sample from MMC. It's Cell K.E.M. by Evogen. It's a mass and recovery catalyst with bcaas. Funny thing is it has creatine gluconate, citruline malate and other electrolytes. I think it's more of a intra-workout drink but instructions are to drink after work out.
ANYWAY, this thing smells and tastes like shit. Period. I took a sip and poured the rest down the drain.

QUOTE(xGKx Phoenix @ Aug 25 2012, 07:50 PM) How long have you been using it? I've heard of "bowel issues" with myofusion before, specifically for probiotic. If you've only just started, it's probably a good thing. Meaning the probiotics are doing their job  Otherwise, try sticking with it for a while and see how you go. Also what's your fiber intake like? fiber about 4 servings of fruits + vege. Have been using this for the past 1 week , had no issues with the old version. It would suck if I had to stop using this, one of the cheapest protein blend with a decent nutrition profile out there

QUOTE(xGKx Phoenix @ Aug 25 2012, 08:21 PM) sounds to me like it's just the probiotic enzymes working. stick with it and see how it goes, that's my professional recommendation  PS: what kind of servings are you having and when? also, what else (if any) are you consuming with it? water/milk mix? workout days 2 scoops, 1:1 water milk about 10oz ?

QUOTE(DT1 @ Sep 4 2012, 03:49 PM) Postage was 44USD. Timeframe forgotten, probably some time between 2.5 to 4 weeks. ah thanks for the info. Not worth it to get whey alone. If whey + other supps then it can be considered

QUOTE(Mr. Z @ Sep 6 2012, 01:26 AM) Quick question: do u guys prefer premix pre workout supplements like MP assault or u mix it on your own based on ingredient you need like micronized creatine and beta alanine.. I m currently confused as some of these preworkout supp are NO based and some are creatine based. Example: MP assault vs MP NO Hybrid which are both pre work out supp.. creatine and NO serves 2 different purposes.

QUOTE(kubuk @ Oct 5 2012, 10:11 PM) I got it quite long ago. Came in a bundle from bb.com. Combat is just OK. Its a blend of course. Not too sure how much it costs me. It mixes very darn well. Best ever protein I've used that dissolves perfectly. I use it as a night protein and also during my day. Works the same lol. By the same I mean its a protein. I don't know if it effects my gain or not but on the safe side.. I maximize my protein intake. Combat mixes well for you ? It doesn't for me. Mixability is worse than Myofusion Probiotics and it is not as thick either. Taste-wise it's a bit too sweet for my liking. The reason I got this is because Myofusion upset my stomach. However, Combat gives me a lot of farts.

QUOTE(YakAttack @ Sep 16 2013, 02:50 AM) Decided to go with Either dynamize elite or universal whey pro, same price. I find most "good tasting" wheys to taste like crap so I cant imagine what SAN metaforce or Prostar would taste like. Has anyone here tried universal's whey? I use universal creatine, does the job good enough. Which of the two tastes better? Edit: mmc only has pina colada flavour for dynamize. F8ck that, universal it is. dymatize's elite whey cafe mocha is good yo, it's not overly sweet, and has that coffee taste to balance it out

Just bought universal ultra whey pro (cookies and crean) from musclemaniaclub. The powder is bland, even when mixed with milk, and tasted abit sour for me. Not sure if it's the product itself or the whey has gone bad. It was sealed, and expiry is in 2016.
