casein???? soy?????

No real food bro. I don't if much of any kind of whey survives digestion and makes it's wAy as proteins to body tissues.

Soy is the devil. Raises estrogen. It's tits and tears in a can.

Why not just use egg whites or eat something. Much better results IMO. Also protein powder is full of fillers that just put a layer of water and gunk under your skin just like all processed foods.

There are two sides of the fence on the whole whey matter. While nothing replaces whole foods, There have been countless studies on the beneficial effects of whey protein, post workout. I use protein post workout, and that's it, to replenish my muscles. I also eat a good pwo meal 30-45 minutes later. It has been shown to aid in repair, after intense workouts. Now do you need it? Absolutely not, but it does provide some extra calories. The key word is supplement, not replacement.

Soy is not really the best stuff out there( unless you're a vegan, then idk why the hell you would be on this site) I would stay away from that, but the phytoestrogens contained in soy I believe do not actually convert to estrogen in your body. And if it did the amount is so miniscule it wouldn't do anything. I read something a while back as to why it was a bogus claim. I remember when this was a big thing all over the news, but I think it was blown a little out of proportion because that's what the media does. they don't report facts they report gossip, and whatever get's the ratings up. Soy is so bland anyway.

Now the majority of all your calories( basically all of them) should be coming from whole food sources, like darkness said, but there is nothing wrong with using protein, as long as you're not replacing meals with it. I get it if you're in a pinch, but you should eat whole foods all day everyday. Your body digests these easier because that's what it's been doing for thousands of years, but I use a whey blend with fast, medium and slow release proteins.

Good points. I never really thought of protein powder like I have other processed foods. I've been drinking shakes for years and never really thought about it. Looks like I need to cook up some more of my multi animal ground meat with the fat floated out.

I've also been using the costco stuff. Cytosport with no sugar, my location only has chocolate and vanilla (tastes a bit like movie theater popcorn to me)

I use truenutrition

Trutein is one of my favorites(Lemon Meringue/banana).
You can get the USP labs oxy elite Protein for $15 for 2lbs at retailers( they are changing the profile soon)

That's a better deal than I receive. Typically I buy 6.3 lbs of Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard Whey from Costco. I know it costs under $60. I believe it's $57

I usually buy mine from Costco also. My choices are either Cytosport or Optimum Nutrition. I wish the location I bought from carried Orange Cream Biotech.

Well said. Whey protein is good for post workout, and convenience, but no powdered protein is anabolic as a whole egg!
