I purchased this Syntrax supplement because of the price (20 dollars CAD for 2.2 pounds). But now I'm thining of just throwing it away because I've read some bad things about Syntrax.
Such as:
http://findarticles.com/p/articles/m...6/ai_n10742263The victims, ages 20 to 32, suffered liver failure or acute hepatitis after taking Lipokinetix(A Syntrax product) for two weeks to three months, the Food and Drug Administration said.
Is this product safe? Should Syntrax be trusted?

I personally enjoy their Nectar lineup of protein flavors. It's a very nice change from the normal chocolate, vanilla, strawberry. I've had nothing but positive experiences with Nectar.

I love nectar but hate the tea flavors. I really like fuzzy navel and apple.

too bad you live in canada.. you could've given it to me so I could dispose of it for ya.
in all seriousness, that product is a completely different type of supplement than protein. you'll be fine.

Not the biggest fan of the tea flavor but I don't like tea to begin with. Some of the other flavors are good like the Fuzzy Navel And the Cherry. The Nectar is completely safe to use. You are comparing two completely different products. Nectar is just protein you will be just fine.

05-07-2007, 02:20 PM #9That article is from before SI03 owned the Syntrax name. Any products produced in that time has nothing to do with the current company. Yes Nectar is safe and I think one of the best tasting protiens of any one. If you have any more questions please let me know.Originally Posted by MMABastion

Now I know why it was on sale. The tea flavoured version doesn't mix well with Gatorade at all!
I can see the fruit flavoured versions mixing well with Gatorade, but the tea one is kind of wierd tasting.
