anyone use this? its pretty expensive compared to most of the rest, but its the only completely lactose-free whey protein powder i know of, and *seems* to be of higher quality that most other products. what do you guys think is it worth the extra cost? or is it all just placebo anyway?

It's an excellent protein, one of the best out there.

I've been using it for 4 years. Nothing mixes or tastes better. Awesome stuff; I would never change brands. 2 scoops dutch chocolate + 1 banana + blender = best breakfast ever for those on the go.
Zero carbs, also.
As for it being a placebo....thats up to you. I think there is enough evidence out there that proves whey protein is worthwhile to use. Also, Isopure is used in many hospitals for people with degenerative muscular diseases or conditions, due to the fact that it's lactose free and easily mixable + drinkable.

Always if the Protein content is high so is the price.Seems you are on a winner.

It's the best I have ever used. There is so much hype with whey protein but this is the best. It's pure isolate. It mixes better than any other and it doesn't cause the stomach problems other "pure" isolate whey protein can cause. I suspect that there is a loose interpretation by the protein companies of what isolate is as opposed to concentrate. There also blends of isolate and concentrate.

I sold it for years when I ran my store. Been two years since I used a protein powder of any kind. They are garbage. The human body was designed to respond to the amino acid profiles of animal meats, eggs, to a lesser extent milk and veggie protein etc. when you drink that crap it's bscly a derivative of whey and your body has no idea what to really do with it. Now, if you're on anabolics and/or insulin that's a much diff story. Your body is bscly supercharged and nitrogen is MUCH higher. You do not need your body's hormonal response as you are using artificial hormones anyway. My advise- for natural bber's stick with natural sources. Plain and simple.

i agree that real food is the best bet, but this stuff is just so convenient and still more cost-effective than buying a ton of meat. and i can only eat so many eggs.. i just get sick of them.

just eat all the normal high calorie foods but the key is to eat different fruits with these high calorie meals
the result will be alot more energy, 4-6 shits a day, bodyfat stays low because the fruits help you clear your bowls quicker while still attaining the energy from the foods

Good stuff. usually you can get a 7.5 LB size for a decent price.

It has always been the best on the market, period.
That said, Species has a blend as well that's right up there, too, but is a little higher-priced right now, I think.
Yes, we all agree that food is best, but when you're doing 6-8 meals a day, it can be impractical to have whole foods for all of them. It's doable if you make that commitment, but it's just not practical for most people's lifestyles.
If you're using a WPI powder, though, you're going to pay more.

lol, what a bunch of bullshit.
I highly doubt you know more than me and I guarantee you do not look better than me so until you do SHUT THE FUCK UP. hhahaha moron.

If you do NOT feel bloated and gassy it is a being digested .

I don't get it. You spend extra bucks for a Zero carb protein drink but then add a banana to it. Kind of counterproductive

it's all fucking stupid. why you just don't eat food is really beyond me.

I think the majority of any good diet should be FOOD, but some work, or lifestyle demands prevent that sometimes. Far better to eat some fresh fruit with a pro drink than go without.

My protein powder of choice is Champion Whey ($35 for 5lbs). 2 scoops, 8oz of water, slam it & run along. There are no excuses for missing meals. Meals 1 and 6 are always 2 scoop shakes for me.
IMO, Isopure is good stuff but way over priced.
I work "on call" so there is always at least 2lbs of protein in my trunk. ;) I get so tired of paying 3-4 dollars for a dried up Wendy's chicken breast "when I am in a rush". You guyz know what I am talking about. You f-in eat it & just pray that it gets absorbed into your system.

Who does this guy think he is?????? Talking about protein on a bodybuilding board!!! Moderator ;D

Generally, I've failed to note a substantive difference in the results from one product to another. That said, when I began taking a shit load of Beverly mass aminos each day, instead of relying on some well known premium powders, low and behold my recovery and strength improved. Beverly is no bullshit.
Most people get all wrapped up with the bloody labels and base their impressions mostly off of that, which I think is laughable. You can have what is perceived to be the best ingredient profile in the world, but if your results don't improve, who gives a shit?
-
Yes Iso Pure is a bit pricey, but if you can afford it it's worth it. If you buy the 7.5 lb container it is much more reasonable. Used to use ON 100% whey, which is OK but did notice after using Iso Pure and then using the ON whey that there is a lot more bloating with the On product compared to the Iso Pure. In this case you get what you pay for.
-
I have read and heard all the hype about Isopure but I can't drink it,that is the worse protien powder I have ever drank. I have given it away because I couldn't get a whole shake down. I have heard a lot of folks rave about how good it taste but not for me. There has to be some truth about its quality though, lap ban Dr's recommend it for there patients.
-
I loved Ispoure then tried All the whey isolate....fantastic
3.3 lbs of Ispoure = $35 avrg
5 lbs of all the whey on ebay $38 (includes s/h)
Will not go back to Isopure

go fuck yourself :D
protein shakes arent def not necessary but that part about the body not knowing what to do with the protein is bullshit. there is much more to write about it, but i suspect your pea sized brain can't comprehend much more than this.
