I'm posting this at the diet discussion too, but, here it is...
If you buy a whey protein supplement, what brand is it and whatever other info you care to divulge about it.....my point is, I'm about to buy more and the last one I had has 6g of carbs and I want one with 2g or less of carbs and at least 20g of protein....
geez, I'm bored today

When you're talking about 2 - 6 g of carbs per serving - I wouldn't sweat the diff. I find that Universal and Designer have OK tasting whey. Isn't it supposed to be cold-filtered or something though? Anybody - speak up and help a lady out!

Mom, I don't want the 6g of carbs......if it's 2g, for eg., I could have those 4g of carbs elsewhere.....

I bought some from The Protein Factory, I think it is called lo-carb for women, something like that, it is easy to find, you just tell them what you are looking for. The chocolate has only 1 gram and I think it tastes great in water.

to emulate a great anabolic environment for bodybuilding purposes order from the protein factory a whey casein blend which is 40% whey protein and 60% casein add a tablespoon of flax oil and you have one heck of a kick-a** protein blend that will allow your body to receive protein over a sustained period of time along with with efa's for added anabolic fats.

Lisa, you could try Cytopro. The choc tastes great, better than most and I've tried them all, and it's 2.5g of carbs for 24g of protein. The isopure choc tastes like crap, and I guess designer has too many carbs for what your looking for. I'd give the Cytopro choc a try, it runs about $25 a container.

Lisa the Twinlab or the Sportspharma would be

good for you - Also Optimum Nutrition has a

good one also- it is economical also.

It depends on how much protein you are taking

in per day. But the three of those are pretty

good and other than Sportspharma's new

formula (it does not taste to good - the old

one was better)I think you would like them.

no of servings x protien carbs per serving !
this is the best way to see if its cost effective !!

COnCReTE_MAsS: yes, you are indeed right..but, I've bought the Opt. Nut. 5lbs for $58.....but now I see it can be bought for $30cdn. ($20) for the same thing and same size!! I mean, even if I got that stuff $30cdn. and had to pay shipping, it'd still be way cheap.......I went out today and bought a Sport Pharma's, Just Whey....1.65lbs for $40....which would be about $27US$$.....that's expensive, but, it tastes awesome and mixes great.......so, I dunno...I ca get a 5lb Just Whey for $80 ($54US)....I consume about 2 of those a day, somedays 1, somedays 3.....

i would not go with the Optimum whey, i have heard that they do not meet label claims.

i like ProLab 100% whey. it has 22g of protein and 6 grams of carbs per serving, for the same price as Optimum.

Lisa try "BALANCE"whey isolate, at www.australian-muscle.aust.to/ it's a 4kgs tub 92% protein & 0 fats & 2grams of carbs.Cost AUS$160/- plus shipping,I think it's worth it since Canadian dollar now higher than aus$.However I think there's a Canadian website selling whey protein,I can't remember though the web add.I'll try to search & let you know.
