>>75720327Which ones and how much?
once you ingest lead you’re absolutely fucked
cheap cacao has a lot of lead and cadmium in it, not surprisedjust stick to whey and non-chocolate flavors, ez
>>75720336It's cocoa not the protein
>>75720346>cheap cacao has a lot of lead and cadmium in itI don’t see how you mix lead and chocolate at any phase of the production unless the facilities they use somehow contain lead for whatever reason.
>>75720363frankly I don't know either, but last year or so a bunch of chocolate brands got accused of having a shitton of lead/cadmium in it, my only assumption is whatever 3rd world country the cheap cacao is getting sourced from is just horrifically bad environmentally
>>75720363The plants take it up from soil, they love it. It's not contamination and it's not from sprays so organic shit is the same
If Lead was good enough for my Grandpa, it's good enough for me. End of.

>>75720839fake study is fake. >It doesn't exceed standards, but if you take double it could exceed standards.
Whats the best tasting non-chocolate flavor protein powder? I'll be mixing it with milk, if that matters. I've had Gold Standard vanilla and some other brand birthday cake, and it was extremely disgusting.Please include the flavor and brand.
