Where are we going for protein?

Anyone recommend a new flavour to go in porridge? Fed up with Vanilla!

Some of the sugar free syrups could be an idea to mix in with the vanilla, frozen berries too.

I like cinnamon Danish and golden syrup flavour whey, salted caramel flavour too, all go well in oats.

Key is to mix it up as you'll get sick of anything having it all the time.

Thanks! I actually used to get cinnamon danish from myprotein all the time, but it takes me forever to finish a 1kg bag...as I only have whey in the morning. Seems to be tough to find 500g bags of whey these days.

Cookies & Cream is my go to. I rarely take a shake with milk or water alone and prefer to mix it in with food

Salted Caramel for the win!

I tend to use flavour drops with vanilla protein in my porridge - butter biscuit/ toffee/ white chocolate. It can never be too sweet! 😀

After the workout protein synthesis stays elevated up to 24 hrs. You absolutely need no protein powder trash. A good healthy meal that's all you need.

This thread under fitness and wellbeing. Hence, I have to mention young lads that protein powder can cause a variety of health issue and absolutely useless form of protein consumption. Go post under the food category they have no issues what type of junks you feeding yourself.

5kg bags seem to be back down to ~€75 delivered if anyone's been for the price to drop. The code REVOLUT38 gets 40% off most items

Esse85 · 21-06-2022 3:24pm

Think I noticed a mistake on there.

The strawberry 100 serving is charged the same as the 60 serving.

Both of those prices are pre the discount code.

I got both for €30 each, that salted caramel is delicious.

60 servings tub is 1.9kg

So 100 is over 3kg

Bout 78% protein, very little difference between it and the impact I'd say.

I could nearly sell it door to door at this rate.

That salted caramel flavour in that version of whey is the nicest I have tried in any flavour or brand, really salty. I'm hoping the strawberry will be good, and not short dated to reflect the low price.

This price mistake has been spotted and adjusted by MP.

Haha you got it too fair play.

I'd be confident we'll get it.

2 mins after posting that....

swededmonkey · 23-06-2022 3:43pm

Anyone bought from Inside nutrition? Recently popped up on my social media ads and selling 2kg whey for €44. No idea what's its like in terms of quality

Esse85 · 23-06-2022 9:17pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/119239766#Comment_119239766

It's fairly rubbish in terms of price anyway.

Wondering the same myself. Plenty of adds. See they are running a 25% off ‘payday’ which knocks a 1kg bag closer to €20 (not sure how that equates against some of the bulk sellers). Not a whole lot of reviews for what is a new company. Useful to know if they are any good as been Irish based, would at least be quick to get to you!

Got mine today, really good dates too.

Any thoughts on this? https://www.supplementoutlet.ie/protein/so-nutrition-pure-whey-4kg-free-samples-son-whey-4kg

It seems like a good price, limited selection of flavours though.

GwaneTIme · 12-07-2022 10:59pm

Actually, this thread is one of the most useful I've seen recently. Thanks for sharing it all. I've only started building my body, so it's kinda tough for me to find the best protein. So, I guess I should try at least some popular proteins to understand the most suitable for me. My friend works at https://purerawz.co/, so he advised me to try some SARMs, which helped me a lot initially. Tbh, I started going to the gym because I didn't like myself at all. And the gym has changed my life. Now I like myself, I love what I do, and it gives me the sense to live.

I'd love to get some protein powder straight from the manufacturer without any other bulshi1t added to it. I'm getting sick of all the sweeteners, thickeners and other additives in everything (not physically sick, but just I had enough). Who works in Glanbia here? Maybe I should try to get a job there myself 😅

Dave 101 · 14-07-2022 5:39pm

Anybody heard of https://www.insidenutrition.com/ not too bad price wise considering…

So nobody’s heard of them, 20 euro per kg isn’t bad when I prefer to order multiple 1kg bags of different flavours instead of 5kg of my protein strawberry 🤢

I haven't been hunting for protein bargains since taking advantage of MPs mistake in pricing on the strawberry 3.2kg

I've so much I need to get through that I'm staying off MP and BP websites.

Definitely wouldn't be paying anywhere near €22 a kg.

Wonder of someone supplies complex formula of protein + fat (soluble vitamins) and macros? Obviously to absorb protein and build muscle you need a variety of other nutrients? Sugar or banana flavour won't help.

They only declared 86g out of 100. 14 grams of unknown stuff in every 100g missing from the label. Would you know?

And why they are adding Sucralose to Protein powder?

"...sucralose can change your gut microbiome by lowering the number of good bacteria by half. Research done on animals shows that sucralose can also increase inflammation in the body. Over time, inflammation can lead to problems like obesity and diabetes..."
