I bumped into an old acquaintance today who owns a few supplement stores in the area, told him about the how shady this shit is getting and mentioned your story and he was screaming... I bet it was ******** ****** ********* and I told him I did not know but he said he had sent this certain brand to someone he had connections with nutritional testing and the guy said there was more maltodextrin than protein meanwhile the label had a decent amount of protein (not sure the amount) and like 2-3 gms of carbs, it was more like 30 gms of carbs and 1/2 the protein.
I just googled the company name he told me and then I found something from 2009, heres the start of the article:
Federal authorities are trying to shut down a (city name) nutritional supplement manufacturing operation after investigators said they found numerous health violations, including a rat cut in half and rodent feces in mixing areas.......investigators found inadequate sanitizing and cleaning operations, mislabeled products, improperly stored chemicals and ingredients of some products mixed with others............Investigators saw two rats running through the facilities, two dead rats and "rodent contamination" — including gnaw marks and urine stains — on most of 21 bags of whey protein concentrate inspected, the suit said. (probably old news to many of you but I don't follow too much of this)
This guy swears by Dymatize, I told him I was up in the air about them but he went on about them.... Is it true Dymatize makes the protein for very very popular brand out there? This was a claim he made.
