What Is The Best Quality (5LB) Whey Protein Supplement Under $40?

[Lean2Mass]

I used to take ON Whey Protein for a while, but I really can't afford it anymore. I'm looking for:

1. Great taste (especially vanilla)
2. 22+g of Protein
3. 100+ Calories

Thanks in advance!

Have a look at IDS Whey, or their Whey ISO.

Both are $40.99 for 5lbs and include a vitamin / Mineral blend.
The Cinnamon in the Vanilla Cinnamon is a bit strong but I like it and the Belgian Chocolate flavor tastes good as well.

check out american whey. tho dosent come in 5 lb (atleast where iv looked). just 3lb, 10lb and 25lb

[JHICKS3301]

Look in your couch for a few dollars and stick with ON.

Dymatize Elite Whey is only $36 for 5lbs

American Whey is solid as well. They don't have 5lbs, but they do make 3lbs. If you look around, you can find 3lbs of 100% Isolate for only $20, so 6lbs would be $40. That's a damn good deal if you ask me.

Dymatize whey $36. It's practically the same as ON when it comes to their profiles. If you like the taste of coffee, I'd suggest Mocha cafe as well.

Didn't Dymatize Whey fail label claims?

Didn't Dymatize Whey fail label claims?

It was all B.S. Dymatize is a reputable company and you shouldn't have anything to worry about. Their CEO addressed this in a past thread.

I thought I might be able to shed some light on the subject here. This is all part of a smear campaign started by a guy in another country to hurt Dymatize. Nothing more. We filed a suit against him in Texas. After spending multiple 10's of thousands of dollars on legal fees, we learned the guy has no way of paying a suit he was going to loose (I would have to spend an additional $250k to follow through in England). So I decided to not follow through with the suit and not throw good money after bad. It was a tough decision, but I can not afford to blow $250k, for a moral victory.

Elite is and always has been a wonderful product. There is no truth in his false tests. His tests were nothing more then him filling a plastic bag with "something" and sending it to a lab and then saying it was Dymatize product. Which is exactly what he did according to the lab he sent the "dymatize product" to. He then decided to post his "results" on any web site anywhere on the world he could find. He even logs on to the web sites as random people in the thread and "prolongs" things. In addition, he faxed his "results" to just about every nutrition and health food store in England. After he did that 2x I decided I had to sue him.

Our plant (a 113,000 sq foot facility in Dallas) where we make Elite protein (in fact we make all our Dymatize powders XPand, gainers, cereal, oats, 12 hour etc. and liquids in this facility), is GMP certified by the NSF. I believe less then 2% of plants earn this designation. Our facility where we make all of our pills (we own that as well) is a fully licensed pharmaceutical plant in Florida. That is the highest license you can obtain. Both facilities are registered with the FDA and both receive FDA inspections.

This is a quick "day in the life" of how a raw material gets turned into a finished product: We test each raw material before blending in our own NIR-FT lab and our own on sight HPLC lab. Once each raw material passes both tests it is further tested in our own on sight microbiological lab. Only once it passes these tests is the product allowed into blending. Once blended, we take the product and run a chemical signature test and a live taste test. after that it is packaged on one of our 12 automated packaging lines. After if it package, we then take one more final chemical signature of each finished product before it is ever shipped. I can not think of any other company making protein who goes through all these "extra" steps to ensure the product is perfect every time. We do the same process on every product we make. We do the same process with Xpand and cereal, 12 hour all of our gainers and all of our pills (except the taste test). We test each and every raw ingredient for potency and purity right here on site in this building or the plant in Florida. We test through both NIR and HPLC methods. The amount of testing is staggering. We test and retest to make sure the product is as good as it can be, every time.

I would be happy to send each of you an email with more details on the manufacturing process of Elite if you like. I would have liked to tell you more about the lawsuit, but since the guy has "nothing to loose" he has already threatened suing me for "defamation" so I can not tell you any more. I will let you draw your own conclusion about him. As you can probably tell this entire affair has really made me angry, I think it would make anyone angry.

My lawyer will call me in a few hours to tell me I should not have posted this, but I thought you people at least deserved something from our perspective. I am very glad there are passionate users out there interested in this type of thing. I hope you don't take his "results" seriously, as they are nothing more then a mudslinging campaign.

Thanks for the continued support

Ted

Some people accused them of this, and then the accusation ended up falling through. I think I read that they ended up never failing any label claims to begin with. So nothing needed to be fixed. I would find the thread but I'm feeling lazy.

Edit: Good find stickammer

Awesome. Thanks, guys. How does their vanilla taste?

[ncjhak23]

I've only tried their cafe mocha, and its very coffee like with a hint of chocolate. Most would think it's the other way around, so if you don't like a coffee flavor I wouldn't suggest this. It mixes great as well.

I liked their Cafe Mocha as well, but it did get old going through 5lbs of it.
I found myself mixing it in with other brands of protein in chocolate flavor...in an effort to "tame" some of the taste.

It mixed well and I had no GI troubles.

I hear their fudge brownie is awesome, but bb.com doesn't sell that flavor .

Here is a good choice:

[WheyAddict]

A lot of good options have already been suggested, but another option is if you go to Costco or Sam's Club you can get 5lbs of EAS Whey for $33. Sam's carries the 100% whey and Costco carries their blend.

Awesome. Thanks, guys. How does their vanilla taste?

I wasn't a fan of the Vanilla. The powder itself has outstanding mixability, but even in 6oz of liquid the vanilla just always seems to just taste diluted...I mean it was good, just always tasted weak. The chocolate is currently by far my favorite tasting chocolate protein, and the berry is very good as well. My review: http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showth...hp?t=108167341

IDS Multi-Whey is another personal favorite of mine, American whey is becoming very popular due to the price (though you can't get it on bb.com), you can get 10lbs of scivation whey for under $60 which is a really good deal, and Ultimate Nutritions Whey Supreme is a really good deal at $30 for 5lbs
