Re: Cheaper substitute for Myoplex lite

Asking this question will get you a gazillion different answers

because of course everyones tastes are different and probably 90% of

the people supplementing on this board have preferred using protien

powder over MRPS's (meal replacement powders) or RTD's (ready to

drink liquids) at one time or another. Much cheaper (cents per

serving), and easy to change to your liking with addition of fruits,

flavored syrups, coffee, etc and you can even add it to your

oatmeal, or fave batch of muffins. :-)

My current fave is the Costco brand of protein powder (5lb container

for under $24)but I have also liked EAS's Simpley Whey (dont think

they make this one anymore or they call it something else now), and

always any flavor of Natures Best Isopure (they mix well even with

water). But one persons nirvana is not maybe yours, so you will have

to buy causously and basically experiment till you find one you like.

Always note how much protein (grams) you get per serving (scoop or

not) and then divide your cost by that to compare brands. Also some

brands have some carbs in them, can be sweetened with splenda or

aspartame, or stevia, and may have addtl ingredients you dont want.

You can compare some at the following websites:

http://www.vitaglo.com/

And you might need this after you purchase some that doesnt taste

good on its own - how to make a protein shake not suck:

I get whey protien at GNC. They have a good return policy if you

don't like it. They will almost always take back an open container

if most of it is left. Some places will mix you a sample in the

store.

One place to look for Protein Powder, etc. is eBay. I've bought Met-

RX (not chocolately enough), Extreme Whey (yummy...) and ON Gold

(jury's still out on this one...). I liked the Extreme Whey (I think

that was the name of it) the best and it was a damaged returned,

unopened, but it had a small dent on the container. The price was

extremely low, like $15 which included the shipping. I always buy the

5lb containers b/c it's way (or whey...LOL) more convenient for me.

Most people don't think of eBay for that type of stuff...thought I'd

pass it on.
