Whey and Multivitamin

I was wondering which whey protein and which multivitamin you would recommend? I know USN and Biogen are basically inferior products, but what is best and why?

I know many of you will probably say raw whey (basic supplements) but I am not really keen on that, I have been using SSN which actually tastes fantastic to me.

Whey Concentrate = Whey Concentrate. No brand's whey is different to any other. If you are just after taste then buy the flavour you want it in from any brand. Optimen and Solgar v2000 are good multivitamins.

umm u are wrong their bud,if u look at the list of ingrediants on the usn tub of whey u will see that its not just whey concentrate,they have maltodexrin and plenty other things added to their 100% whey which is a lie!!!!!!!!!!ssn whey is a good choice,if u have the money, optimum nutritions gold standard is top of the pops of whey concentrate but if u also have the money SPS ISO PRO is the shizz...

Thanks for the reply DJ, I think I am going to try the SPS this month, probably going to go broke though :silly:

Ja I know some add other ingredients (BCAA, Glutamine etc) to their stash, but to me whey is whey. I don't buy USN so I wouldn't be interested in what shit they put in.

Can't really say I enjoy the "exotic" SPS flavors, it was definitely a colossal mistake to get the Blueberry Blizzard, but now I have to finish it - that shit is expensive :silly:

i love that shit dude,i dont like the mango though...

LOL, it reminds me too much of some crap USN pre-workout shake I tried once...

I was still married at the time, and the USN stuff was so bad that my wife refused to kiss me after I drank it :lol:

lol I'm loving the mango
oh and sorry about this (please try to refrain from hunting me down) lol but USn's daily optimal is actually a pretty good multi.
it also has added efa's which the v2000 and optimen don't.
Just for the record though I'm not changing from optimen, best I've used just need to add you're EFA's

On a more serious note, now really, please describe the difference you experienced between your previous multi and your current wonder product?

well for one I had no energy come 8-8:30 pm and was generally in the afternoons tired. Some days even driving home I would really feel like sleeping. fubared...maybe it wasn`t The vitamin or maybe it was a lack of them but whatever. Since I went back onto the Biogens I don’t fall asleep on the couch at 8:30. :laugh: Energy levels really seem higher. One factor is that I take 4 a day…two in the morning and two at about 3pm....

I do animal pak simply coz im a hardcore...lol kiddin...but i like animal pak since it has enegy boosters as well...

Only thing i dont like about it, it has shark cartlidge or fin or something to do with a shark in it.

Why dont you rather take one four times a day, you will absorb the vitamins much better that way

i read somewhere that you can only absorb a certain amount at a time so I stagger it.(I stand corrected on this) I tried 4 at once a few times and peed out bright yellow for awhile which tells me I’m either dehydrated or peeing out vitamins, I drink a lot of water… so I just reverted back to twice a day.

I used to take 1 ON Optimen in the morning and was very tired in the late afternoon. This week I started taking 1 in the morning and 1 at lunchtime and now I battle to sleep at night.WTF ? Solal Gabatropin helped me to sleep at night, but I think I grew immune against it.

stress wakes me up some nights but I normally sleep well. Maybe you should cycle the Gaba to reduce the immunity you building up...

Yes that is true, you peed most of it out but then if you know this then 1 four times a day will benefit you more than 2 twice a day

Guys the best Whey is Whey Protein Isolate, I have been using ON for about 7 years now...best best protein around. You do not want a protein that contains any lactose or cassien, this is where you get the farts from. Our bodies dont absorb lactose (milk protein) at all and it just sits in your stomach/intestines doing nothing. Body cant absorb it, hence farts...

ON, is honestly the shizznizz...R700 a month for a 5 kg tub, it is the key to pre and post workout. The rest of the time solid food...I think we tend to place too much importance on "supplements"...GABA, ZMA, etc etc wont make that huge a difference.

Stick with a good protein, Solgar Vit C (1500mg tabs) V2000 Multi Vitamin, MSM powder and Milk Thistle...and TONS of water...you will be set to go...

the ON whey is actually a blend of isolate, concentrate and peptides.
the only pure isolate whey on the market is the SPS isopro, the weider whey (forgot the name) and intrapro from gaspari
