Ask them why a product named 'whey protein' does not has whey protein concentrate as the first and major ingredient?

Why soy isolate was not listed on website as one of the ingredient?

There is no ingredients list on website. This ingredients list is important for a customer to make an informed choice.

You bought their product because it says Whey Protein on their website and product label.

They even try to compare it with optimum whey.
At least ON Whey has whey only.

does such whey protein exist in musclemaniaclub? Wpc must the 1st ingredient?
it's not the fault of the seller.
it's the fault of the manufacturer.

it's up to the customer to decide which are the good/bad ones.

is it that hard to learn to read labels?

Sry i am newbie. Does bcaa count amino spiking too? All protein have bcaa. Wpc must be 1st ingredient? How about other type of whey? Like wpi or wph

I suggest you read all the posts before this. someone has answered that. there is a reason why certain aminos are used to spike the protein content and certain are not.

Hi DarkLight,so there are none mass gainer on the market that is not guilty of amino spiking?

so even if bber wish to bulk up, is better to use whey protein instead of mass gainers? icon_question.gif

Synzo,

There's still hope. Buy any Protein supplement and Pure Maltodextrin separately. Depending on your calorie needs, simply add maltodextrin in your protein shake.

Works for me all the time.

I guess mine is good stuff then....

but I saw 2g of glycine out of 100g of protein. Not sure why it's not listed in some other labels.

You don't need maltodextrin. It's overrated. Molecular weight doesn't count for anything. Carbs are carbs.

I've stumbled upon some feedback on taurine and glycine from MucleTech rep.

Question: "why does phase8 have taurine and glycine listed in the ingredients. Are you guys using this as a cheap filler ingredient?"


"Taurine is the second most abundant free amino acid in muscle after glutamine. While we can make taurine through natural biological pathways, this process is not very active in humans, and dietary supplementation can therefore help. Although not directly incorporated into muscle proteins, taurine can have several important properties including helping with cell-volumization, which research suggests is linked to the promotion of anabolic activity. Research even suggests that taurine may have a role in supporting exercise performance.

Glycine is the simplest of amino acids and is considered non-essential because humans can produce it naturally. Nonetheless, glycine is important for protein synthesis, especially in proteins such as collagen, a major stress-bearing component of connective tissues including ligaments and tendons. Glycine is also important in the natural synthesis of creatine. You can enjoy your Phase8 and know that its designed to keep you in a prolonged anabolic/anti-catabolic state. "
