ladiecre 7 Posted August 25, 2012 They are very very nasty it cost 3.99 were I bought it. I tried watermelon and orange. It has 42 grams of Protein. But the taste is horrible Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrscastillo 32 Posted August 25, 2012 The New Whey Liquid Protein shots? I tried blue raspberry, watermelon, fruit punch and grape.... I think I spent about $14 total.... I liked them but I also like getting in all of my Protein without having to suck down a Protein Shake lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
O.T.R. sleever 3,386 Posted August 25, 2012 I have very bad news for you. Those shots are mostly collagen/gelatin. Your body cannot use the Protein. I consider New whey to be one of the most offensive products available. They misleadingly name their product to make people believe that it is something it is not. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. But I'd feel even worse if I didn't say anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

COsleeveDude 273 Posted August 25, 2012 You should send letters to the Better Business Bureau, food and Drug Administration, your state's Attorney General. Sounds like they need to be put out of business for misleading advertising. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lessofmeismore 1,405 Posted August 25, 2012 I think they are fine for non-sleevers. The product is only non- beneficial to us sleevers because we can't break it down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
O.T.R. sleever 3,386 Posted August 25, 2012 I think they are fine for non-sleevers. The product is only non- beneficial to us sleevers because we can't break it down. Actually they are garbage for everyone. The human body is incapable of utilizing collagen/gelatin Proteins. They get away with this because the supplement market is not regulated by the FDA. Also they put a tiny amount of whey into the product, so technicaly it does contain whey. What they don't advertise is that it is prodomanantly gelatin/collagen. It's a money grab. collagen Protein is dirt cheap. But even though it is useless to us the Protein is still there Note: any product that is regulated by the FDA that uses collagen/gelatin Proteins must be labeled "Not a signifigant source of protein".

RawrrAshleex3 137 Posted August 25, 2012 Weird, my nut suggested them mixed atleast 1:1 with Water when she talked about the Protein Drinks n all that jazz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

These shots are so misleading, I only wish I had the resources to sue them for false representation. Look at the ingredients on the package. The 1st listed is collagen aka Gelatin. Then check out the thread "all Proteins are not created equal" Collagen has a PDCAAS of 0.086 and is so bad that it can't even be rated on the PER. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mattr2 32 Posted August 25, 2012 Try to go with a whey Protein isolate. You body can absorb a very high percentage that that type of protein. I know you can buy the premixed clear Isopure from GNC which includes 40g or pure protein, or you can buy the powder that make 57g of high quality protein.

joiful 2 Posted August 25, 2012 yeah OTR sleever is right. My NUT said no to those. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ladiecre 7 Posted August 25, 2012 I found a Protein pill. I was so happy they were so big like a Calcium pill. Then I look at the bottle 1 gram. What the hell. Why even sell this crap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lessofmeismore 1,405 Posted August 25, 2012 Ahh well that is sad, so many people are being mislead. I thought they were at least good for someone. -__- What a terrible product. I did want to ask you, OTR, if you knew if Jayy Robbs egg white Protein Powder is okay for us sleevers. I've been using that under the recommendation of my NUT, but I can't find anyone here who uses it. Do you know if its ok to use as a Protein supplement?

O.T.R. sleever 3,386 Posted August 25, 2012 Do you know if its ok to use as a Protein supplement? Yes, egg is a complete protein. It is not as good as Whey, but is still very good Since I'm guessing you've actually tried it, how does it taste? That might be a good alternative for those that can't stand the taste of whey.

lessofmeismore 1,405 Posted August 25, 2012 It's great! It has no taste at all, I really like it. I have it and some whey Protein isolate powder and I really prefer the egg white protein powder. Thanks for the answer! I've been worried about it. 1 joiful reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
