    Understanding the recent Protein Study - A detailed explanation

    @mynameishephzibah I was referring to the heavy metal presence as detected in the study, which was a product purchased in India. And you're right, there are heavy metals leeching into a lot food. However, the point is that protein shakes, even the ones that have higher amounts is still...

    Understanding the recent Protein Study - A detailed explanation

    @mynameishephzibah Personally I found the LOQ's chosen to be fairly arbitrary. For example, they've chosen a general value of 0.025mg/kg as the LOQ for heavy metals. But every agency in the world, has different LOQ levels for the different heavy metals. Cd, Pb etc all have different levels...

    Understanding the recent Protein Study - A detailed explanation

    @zeljko Shouldn't be a problem. They used some garbage limits on permissibility without bothering to really understand consumption processes. The limits of lead according to the EU for food supplements is 3 mg/kg, ON had about 0.2 mg / kg, and even these aren't good methods of calculating if...

    Understanding the recent Protein Study - A detailed explanation

    @sweetkaka To be fair, if people are buying said dogshit brands, then its worth picking them. I think the issue is in the media houses interpreting these studies, and just slandering general protein companies. They should've put the effort and actually named the brands unlike the shitty articles...

    Understanding the recent Protein Study - A detailed explanation

    @pamella3k Ozampic works by reducing your appetite. If I simplify it. Considering tailoring your dosage AFTER hitting your protein macros. Because protein also does something similar. To add to it, consider going for Casein over Whey, it further keeps you full for longer. Unless you're a...

    @pamella3k You'll struggle to hit your protein goals when already on a glp1 drug. People struggle normally itself.

    @pamella3k Yes, amino acids profile is as important as protein content. So without testing for amino spiking, you can't trust such numbers to mean good.

    Understanding the recent Protein Study - A detailed explanation

    @jenfer Yea. I did find that a bit odd. Because the things he found in the Himalaya whey was basically herbs. That's acknowledged in the paper, however there seems to be some conflict here. This test is a bit shallow. It's a good start. But they should've picked the top ten and drilled down...

    @truthseeker316 While it's not impossible. He won't be able to keep it up if that's the case. Atleast for now, he comes across as trusted. There's already some conflict of interest though, with the referral based purchases, but I can understand why he has to do that. Ideally we should support...

    How to spot Fake natty

    @rattikin It does make a difference because, you hire your trainer to look like him. If he is one the cycle or blessed with good genes, then he might be doing sub-optimal or even some cases wrong workout sets, but his enhanced recovery covers for that and he wouldn't know. It's always better to...
