Big A...Isopure??

Big A, since you are the only one in the US fortunate enough to get to use Synthapure, what do you think of Isopure?? Label claims it is 100% isolate, with 0 carbs and 0 fat. I have been using it for about 3 weeks now and I love it. Mixes easily and no bloat.
Anyone ever seen a lab analysis on it?

I havent' used isopure, but everyone that I know that has speaks very highly of it. I don't know about a lab analysis, but the figures you said are correct for pure isolate.
And with pure isolate, when mixed in water, it mixes very easily, it's not too thick and there is no bloat.

Try the Isopure glass zero carb bottles...they taste alright and are less chalky. They come in fruity flavors.

No carbs, no fat.....

A good thing to know when reading labels...It helps me verify the valitidy of the numbers on the label:

carbs have 4 calories per gram
protein has 4 calories per gram
Fat has 7 cal's per gram

Hey Big A why has it taken this long to become available here in the USA? Just wondering because I have been eagerly awaiting it.

I have no idea.

I think the fact that sales were beyond their expectations in the countries they launched it in has something to do with it, as they had to make sure that they weren't constantly out of stock there before they launched into a new country.

That makes sense. Hopefully it wont be much longer.

I think Isopure is great stuff. It does not give me any bloat and will mix easily with a spoon. Its great for mass building in my opinion because it goes down like water and contains 50g protein per serving. I like to use other types of proteins for different things, and this is the one that I use throughout the day to get more protein. I will use a different kind with carbs for post workout. MRP's cause me to feel bloated and so I use them strictly for the purpose of meal replacement.
