Has anyone tried Peptopro?

[Alpha-Male]

"PeptoPro significantly increases the secretion of insulin, resulting in a better utilization of glucose and amino acids by the muscle cells. In fact, the simultaneous delivery of amino acids and insulin provides the perfect foundation for post exercise recovery and muscle growth."

This is the part which I found most interesting. They recommend taking it with either water or fruit juice, which will just replenish liver gylcogen. So peptopro must be pretty damn effective on its own at replenishing muscle gylcogen if no additional glucose/dextrose is required post-workout.
How is it even possible for a protein alone to yield such results?

Anyway. I was just wondering if anyone has tried this stuff. If so, did it make any noticeable difference to gains, performance or recovery time?

Sounds like a gimick.

Dextrose works is cheap and effective, why bother with anything else?

Apparently it's completely water-soluble too, which allows it to be transported more efficiently. I know wms and dextrose are tried and tested. But they say this is clinically proven in trials to produce even greater effects on performance and recovery.

I'll buy a tub just to try it out I think.

Peptopro is the best pre/intra/post workout protein source there is bro. It's not a carbohydrate. It's Hydrolyzed Casein.

I take 30g spread over my pre/intra/post workout shake and muscle pumps and recovery are ridiculous. It's well worth the $30 per pound price tag.

What is PeptoPro?
PeptoPro is the first debitterized, hydrolyzed (pre-digested) protein powder made of mostly all di and tri peptides under 300 daltons. In addition, it is the BEST mixing protein powder in existence. So good that PeptoPro actually turns clear when mixed with water. Click Here to see!

PeptoPro is a casein hydrolysate produced from milk protein. Casein is enzymatically hydrolyzed peptides using a new and patented debitterizing process. This makes it the first hydrolyzed protein that can easily be used in a protein shake.

PeptoPro is unique because it contains over 80% peptides that are under 300 daltons. Normal food protein, like whey concentrate or whey isolate, is a polypeptide made up of thousands of units of amino acids. PeptoPro contains only short chain peptides (average length is less than 4 amino acids) which are water soluble. By being water soluble it not only makes the protein more digestible, but most importantly, makes it very user friendly. The small peptides from PeptoPro are directly and quickly taken up by the gut and released into the blood without digestion.

PeptoPro, as a casein hydrolysate, is a highly nutritious protein containing all essential amino acids in the correct ration for human health. PeptoPro is an easily absorbed protein hydrolysate, which has been treated with proprietary enzymes to cut the protein into di-peptides and tri-peptides, while the well balanced amino acid profile of casein is left intact. PeptoPro eliminates many of the technical problems and physiological side effects held by proteins, protein hydrolysates, and amino acids, while providing all of the advantages provided by these products.

SL is it best to take this stuff in fruit juice? I've read some people recommend stacking it with waxy maize starch and l-lecuine?

Which is the best method?

WMS, leucine, and PP makes a great post workout shake.

You could take 30-40g wms, 5g Leucine, 10g PP, and 5g creatine mono pre and post workout. That would be an excellent pre/post workout combo. I do something very similar.
