I was just going over my supplements, and I began having second thoughts on my whey protein supplement. What do you guys think of this product?? Any advice would be great.
I just wanted to be sure its completely beneficial. I also favor this product because its fairly inexpensive.

I've gone to several web listings for the product, but nowhere can I find what the 300 g of carbohydrate is??
Can you look on the label - is it maltodextrin or other?
My second question is, it doesn't say that the whey is cold-extracted. If it's not, then the protein has been denatured. Maybe you could contact the manufacturer and ask them....
let me know, Jini

Ok I think I figured part of this out. I copied and pasted the recommended daily allowances. That's why we get the 300g of carbohydrates. The product itself is only 1g.
I emailed Country Life (the parent company) and am waiting for a response if the whey is cold extracted.
I had a question about your product called Biochem Sports Ultimate Lo Carb Whey Protein Powder -- 25 oz.
How is your whey protein extracted? Cold-extracted or other??
Thank you for your time
Anthony
