Z||000000||CONTRACTION||12-18-2000||07:48 PM||xflex@planetmail.com||I have a lady friend who wants to know what is a good choice for a protein powder.  Any recommendations?  I've been using powders for 10 years now, but I want to get opinions from the experts :-)<P>Also, I want to know for myself...do you find a difference in the average protein powder and those tailored specifically for women?  Do you prefer specifically whey or a combination powder?<P>Thanks,<BR>CONTRACTION||63.87.21.2||reg||

But I found a good price locally in a new store that opened up-the ol' 10lb bucket of whey.  It works great.  I get to mix my own flavors which is nice.||209.178.171.15||reg||

I am taking those pics back!   <IMG SRC="http://www.elitefitness.com/ubb/smile.gif">  I have used SO many proteins and the only reason I switch from one to the next is taste.  I get SO sick of protein powders, now they all make me gag.  I prefer a brand called Isopure that I recently found.  There are ones for women but what the hell, protein is preotein in my bood.  Isopure is a whey and in 1 serving (2 scoops) has 50g protein to only 3g carbs.  It is paper fine and dilutes in water like nothing.  Tell your 'lady friend' to give it a try.  I like it a lot, they also make meal replacements blah blah blah....<P>Fox||132.56.180.3||reg||

The taste is great and it has NO LACTOSE(I'm lactose intolerent)....I try not to be a protein whore  <IMG SRC="http://www.elitefitness.com/ubb/smile.gif"> If the owners of my gym gives me Iron-Tek (Whey-Tek), I'll take it otherwise I stick with Beverly's products.||24.189.143.126||reg||

If I could choose, I would be mixin' up some chocolate ice cream and Hershey's syrup with whole milk!  Yum!  But, that is under the 'I widh' or 'cheat day' catagory.

Z||000015||FitnessChick||12-20-2000||09:17 AM||fitnesschick@hushmail.com||Powder tailored to women are crap----the are composed of a large anount of soy protein....ladies who train intensly need whey-----I like prolabs whey while dieting, Prolabs N-large while off diet.||209.236.133.248||reg||

STOP PUSHING ME!   <IMG SRC="http://www.elitefitness.com/ubb/redface.gif">)  I am working towards first week of May show.  Anyway, yeah whey protein is the best.  I think brands are up to you just look at the labels like anything.  I think designer tastes good, one of the better, but I gotta stick with the Isopure...just a taste thing and that big 50g protein....not too shabby.  Okay, Contra, when is the visit?  I am waiting....<P>Fox<P>------------------<BR>"WHOEVER HAS RESIGNED HIMSELF TO FATE WILL FIND THAT FATE ACCEPTS HIS RESIGNATION"||132.56.180.3||reg||

Z||000022||riptchick||12-20-2000||09:57 PM||riptchick@operamail.com||I like Met-Rx Pure Protein. It's gotta be chocolate. (yum) I love the taste and its got 46 grams of protein plus I mix it with skim milk so its nice and thick like a real shake.  I think it digests better because it contain different protein sources.  Whey goes through me pretty quickly and this seems to stick to the ribs a little better plus the GNC chick has the hots for the old man so she gives him a good discount......whatever that means.....Oh god.||24.247.48.39||reg||
