>>76730322ONchads win again. Just buy trusted brands and don't worry about this shit.
https://news.immunologic.org/p/consumer-reports-latest-panic-toxicwhy do americans get scared about everything?
>>76730355Low test.Anyway, I just eat meat, I can't stand shakes.
>>76730322one of the most misleading and disingenuous studies ive ever seen, regular whey protein powder is completely fine yet they're being lumped in with mass gainers and plant based garbage for clickbait
>>76730362You don't have to describe your bloodwork before posting
>>76730355we aren't scared of donating our baby foreskins to the pharma industry who then sells them for $400
What's Consumer Reports' game? Do they just fearmonger to get people to subscribe to get more worried for no reason? Their shit seems so suspicious. Like wtf is "our level of concern". Also using percentages instead of just saying it's 10x their limit just so they can say A THOUSAND PERCENT.Bunch of retards IMO.
>>76730428funniest thing is that ON (the only regular whey powder they tested) even passed their ludicrously strict test
>>76730338>per servingthe serving is too little, way too little for an adult male who lifts.
>>76730369kek
glad i live in the eu
>>76730322Protein powder is super suboptimal I have no idea why retards buy the stuff
>>76730840Why?
>>76730355Don't euros get scared of being racist if they dont allow Muhammad to fuck their wives and daughters? And mountain dew
>>76730859No, because I am not racist neither am I Islamophobic. We live in a modern pluralist society and I celebrate that fact. Hate will not divide us, as much as you want it to.
>>76730869Kek sure thing, Hans. Don't forget to wash the bedding after ol Bashir and his boys are done with your woman
>>76730851Hits your liver too fast for it to process all of it and fucks up your hormones (plummets test, increases cortisol which in turn lowers test more)You have to add fat and fiber and whole grains to a protein shake that you then have to drink slowly to have any chance at it benefitting you overall You could just eat a meal of real food instead with a real protein source and none of those negative effects happen
>>76730338Is dymatize safe?
>>76730851>>76730957You forgot how all the contaminants/heavy metals fuck up the kidneys
>>76730776It's the same for the EU, most protein powders are toxic
>>76730369Lol
>>76730322You know this is an activist group right? They're not scientists or academics, they're a bunch of literal political tools pushing donor agendas.
>>76730957>plummets test, increases cortisol which in turn lowers test moreLiterally none of this is true & you can't prove it.
>>76730859Don't americans get scared of not worshipping Charlie Kirk (PBUH)?
>>76731069
>>76730322lead is good for you
>>76730322Mostly in plant protein powders if you took the time to read the article you fucking retard
society started collapsing the moment the jews foisted unleaded gas on us
>>76730322its over
>>76730322It seems like the truly awful shit is the plant based ones. I don't use that shit to begin with, but it's nice to keep in mind.
>>76730374>donatingYou are paying top dollar for that privilege.
>>76730355>https://news.immunologic.org
>>76730428>What's Consumer Reports' game?They do reports, for consumers.You fuckin cunt.>get people to subscribeNo ads or paywall or anything bro
>>76730957except it’s more bioavailable than pretty much anything else
>>76735160this study is disingenuous and sensational, they obviously have an agenda
>>76735382>disingenuous and sensationalwhy are you emotional, talking like it's some twitter post about your favorite celebrity where they said something take out of context.They tested some powder for lead, and found higher levels in some. Did you also have this reaction when you found out about mercury in certain fish?
>>76735469Because these retards get the majority of their protein from powders and have spent 1000s of dollars on these powders. They take it as a personal insult when studies show they are junk or top bodybuilders and athletes tell kids to just eat food and stop buying these junk powders.
>>76735469your "study" sucks retard
>>76735509but the study showed that whey protein powders are fine, even with the absurdly strict level of concern
>>76735509I'm not gonna quit protein powders, but I at least know which brands are the least toxic.It's the same thing with fish, making educated choices is the right thing so you're not eating swordfish and shark meat or even tuna all the time.>>76735804it's not my study, what "sucks" about it?
>>76735816>it's not my study, what "sucks" about it?they chose the most insane strict level of concern possible so they could scare people and then just tested a bunch of plant based shit and mass gainers. the only regular protein powders they tested were fine
>>76735899>they chose the most insane strict level of concern possible so they could scare peopleI don't know about you but I'm trying to minimize shit like heavy metals and microplastics and forever chemicals in my food. It's probably never gonna be 0, but as close to 0 as possible is good enough for me.>and then just tested a bunch of plant based shit and mass gainers. the only regular protein powders they tested were fineso what's the problem
>>76730322break it down based on plant-based and dairy
>>76735924>what's the problemIt throws shade on protein powders as a whole, you have to make those distinctions yourself. Also, are you aware consumer report is basically an activist group with political doners? This shit isn't altruist and were it anyone else offering up their research results they'd have to put a huge fucking asterisk on the whole fucking thing and declare that it was research paid for by people who stand to make a profit by taking protein powders down a peg.
>>76735924>so what's the problemthem presenting it as a general problem with protein powder
>>76730338>contains SöyNo thanks
>>76730322>tested only a fraction of the brandsWhat about nutricost? NSP? Levels? Etc? Plenty of brands not on there.
>>76735975>a general problem with protein powderthey tested all sorts of powders and shakes.Don't you want to know which slop to avoid?
>>76735981they barely tested any of the ones that are most used, whey powders
>>76735978You would get more phytoestrogens from a head of broccoli you schizo. The onions lecithin is only an emulsifier. It's such a small amount that worrying about it makes you a retarded pussy.
>>76731284No? He's already been forgotten
