Isobar ko nabili ko ng P200/12pcs :thumbsupsmiley:

 

Wow. P200/box? My gym sells it at P300/box. Talk about dirt cheap! Sometimes, these stuff come so cheap I'm really afraid that there's a rip off... Ironically, whey prices have increased and these stuff also contain whey and other ingredients but come in at a cost less than your Gatorade. Really makes me wonder.

Regardless of the brand, worldwide prices of whey and other dairy products derived from milk (cheese, powdered milk, yogurt and etc.) have increased. This is due to the scarcity of dairy supplies from milk producing countries. If you can actually purchase whey in its old price, chances are, these are old stocks. Shipments from the last 2 months or so of these imported products have increased way beyond the selling price of these goods. Try shifting to eggs :goatee:

 

Good day bro.

If ever I do away with ON, how many egg whites should I take to substitute for the one scoop of 30grams ON whey protein powder? Thank you in advance.

Instead of focusing too much on protein, focus on gwetting your overall calories up. by default you will already get enough protein by that alone.

Depending on the size, one whole egg roughly contains 4-6 grams of protein (including the yolk). The egg yolk contains 2-3 grams of protein. Do the math Now you know why some people eat 7-10 egg whites in a sitting

any vitamins/supplement to increase your height even ur 25 yrs old??

[Anjutsu]

@ BIGBERTHA

 

They have that at GNC. Sorry too afraid to ask for the price since products that are sold in GNC are way way to expensive. Just compare the price of their Hydroxycut Hardcore they sell it @ 5000 while you can get it for only 2000+ on some of the sellers here.

Men: Body-Building Supplements Can Cause Cancer

 

Baseball players, and even rap singers, have been suspected of taking illegal drugs to strengthen their bodies. Now researchers have discovered that some perfectly legal and easily available over-the-counter body-building dietary supplements may lead to prostate cancer.

 

Doctors discovered this when two patients being seen by at a local hospital developed aggressive prostate cancer within months of starting daily consumption of the same dietary supplement. Both men purchased the same product, one to develop stronger muscles and enhance sexual performance, the other to gain muscle. When they read the product’s label and analyzed the contents, they found that it listed ingredients that were not present, misrepresented the concentrations of the ingredients that were present and failed to list all the steroid hormones contained in the product.

 

Urologist Shahrokh Shariat says, "Given that testosterone supplements are in high demand, there is significant concern that supplements, in addition to the one we evaluated, may pose an urgent human health risk." Young men also need to be careful about a certain kind of oil.

 

One in three people will be diagnosed with cancer some time in their life. Getting the disease isn't always the real problem, because the tumor can often be targeted and destroyed. The problem is when it spreads, but now scientists may have solved this problem too.

 

A protein called "Tes" can block another protein, called "Mena," which helps cancer cells spread from the original tumor. BBC News quotes researcher Michael Way as saying, "[This discovery] gives us clues in designing drugs which mimic the interaction with Tes and prevent cells from migrating, although that's a long way away."

I'd go all natural, its always the way to go

[hottlipss]

I think I need to take supplements to give me energy and stamina kasi after my workouts I feel so light headed, shaky, and I feel like vomiting.

I drink water during my workouts and I don't know if that is contributing to me feeling sick(vomiting). I don't drink naman too much...just to

get rid of that dryness in my mouth and throat.

 

The problem is I'm diabetic and I'm on Metformin (I've got my diabetes under control).

I don't know what supplements to take and if I should even be taking any.

 

Has anyone here heard of energy supplements that is good for diabetics? And something that will not give me the gitters and shakes.

I was taking Hydrocut before and it made me have palpitations but that was the old formula where they had ephedra.

 

thanks for your input
