Does not sound like it is worth trouble to try out. Doesn't mix well, tastes funky, not a superior protein.....

Decent amount of fibre & good oils & no intestinal distress that whey causes. I read recently that whey is now getting a bad rap because of toxicity issues from long term use.

Next time I put an order in I will get a lb or two and check it out. It can't be worse than brewers yeast back in the day can it? :shock:

Liquid liver?

There is a gag reflex first couple of times :lol:

There are some flavoured varieties just need to check them out properly to see what they are using for flavouring & if there are any extra carbohydrates added.

And that is my problem in general with protein, is the flavoring...aside from the soy lecthin the use to process it. I did find a soy free one, but it is on back order.

I saw something called "Xylitol" in the supermarket yesterday. Supposed to be made from fruit. Not had chance to read up on it yet.

Never had a problem with those. Years ago The Bodyshop (Dave Williams place) used to do an amino acid tablet that was as wide as an old 50p piece & three times as thick. Now they were tough to get down :shock:

Look & consistency same as skimmed milk.

Taste tons better than skimmed milk. A little nutty in flavour.

Worth buying again.
