QUOTE(GameFr3ak @ Oct 3 2014, 05:00 PM) 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. " Phase 8 is shit. Period.

" Glycine and Taurine have their uses and benefits. But the problem we're facing here is that some companies add it to their protein count.

And yes, there are no added amino acids as shown by the ingredient label. That label shows the protein as two types of whey isolates.

Please help If Taurine/Glycine/Creatine/Glutamine is added into a Protein product or Weight Gainer containing protein than it is best to avoid the product.

This is a great thread  I recently bought ultimate nutrition prostar whey, seem like a good product and it is quite cheap. One scoop is 30g where 25g is protein(6g bcaa), main one ingredient is wpi, and has more serving than other competitor. Just wonder why this product is not famous.
