Do not listen to the above comment, I am in medical school. Yes dietary cholesterol affects your cholesterol levels. But Cholesterol has many important functions, hormones, phospholipid bilayers of cells, etc. And also remember there are different kinds of lipids, some kinds are good for you. And there is good cholesterol HDL and bad cholesterol LDL. But no this product does not contain too much cholesterol. This product is top notch and doesn't use useless amino acids (amino spiking) to falsify the amount of protein in there product. I. Ayon is wrong, please do not listen to him...

My uneducated guess? The cholesterol comes from the flavoring. The protein you linked is unflavored and probably tastes horrible.

What I am trying to ask is whether it is healthy enough to consume a product which has 10% cholesterol 4-5 times a week?

That frustrates me too. Why mess up a otherwise great product? Practically everything is using this crap now. I think I will try the Raw Organic Whey - USDA Certified Organic Whey Protein, 12oz next. But the shipping is killing my pockets. I wish I could get it locally.

No. I have asked the company many times, as they claim this is CLEAN protein in all of their marketing. Management at BulkSupplements is obviously not interested in the long term health of the consumer. I certainly look on milk and yogurt products for assurance of not being treated with growth hormones....and the same goes for any protein supplement which is 100% derived from dairy. Take a look at Jay Robb protein as a healthier alternative.

Hi Amaury, I usually buy the 5 pound canister which doesn't say Isolate but I'm 99% certain it is the same stuff. I tried to compare the nutritional labels but the 10 Lbs box is written in German and I can't read it. I like it. It's a good source of protein.

Not sure why they are selling directly on website but it is a better deal than I bought. previously it was only available through Chiropractors and natural health doctors. I am not sure of the total ingredients but main item is the purified HCG. during the diet I lost 1/2 to 2 lbs everyday. You must drink at least half of your body weight in water a day to effectively loose the weight. if you are 200lbs drink 100 ounces of water. Your body basically feeds off the excess fat in your body. I ate between 800 and 1000 calories a day. Protocol states 500-800 a day. Men will loose weight faster than women. You need to follow the 2day pre-diet and eat lots of fatty foods to prime your body.

I wondered the same thing. I buy this dark chocolate at my grocery store and it has 5g of sugar for the same serving size.

I was using 2 tblsp a day spread out. One in the morning with my oatmeal and one with my protein shake. Remember you need fat in your diet and 1.5g of fat is nothing. This cacao is all natural and unsweetened it's a good fat.

I cannot give you an educated answer. Only that my nutritionist highly approves of this chocolate and whenever I order it for myself I send an identical order to her.

It does list cholesterol. Under "amount per serving" is shows 0g. Under "%DV" it shows 0%. Even though there not any in this product, it is nice they addressed the issue on the label. I love this stuff, I am 60 years old and my wife is 57. We went for plaque buildup test (its kind of like an MRI). Hers was 0% and mine was 3%, we have been using this product for a while and I believe it really helps .

Sorry, don't know. I have been using it for years, instead of perscriptions for lowering cholesterol, with success.

I'm not the manufacturer but it appears that because the serving size is 2 capsules and recommended dosage is twice a day with 2 capsules that is the way they count it as 60mg. The bottom line for me is it's the only thing that lowered my cholesterol and triglycerides from dramatically high to normal.

Hi! When I was buying this product i was checking all the ingredients to make sure i got what I really want. And as their web site says "Platinum Hydrowhey is ultra-pure. That's because it's made entirely with hydrolyzed whey protein isolates. So there's no excess fat, cholesterol, or lactose to slow down your progress." I hope my answer will help you! Vitaliy H.

The packaging has changed since I purchased it in 2011, but it says palm oil. There is cholesterol, but not in dairy form. I would check on palm oil if you are on a restricted diet.

I have the same question, why is this only available in VERY VANILLA.. I only buy the very vanilla type because I have no other choice, but this is too sweet for me, too! Soy is healthy, but the sugar content in it? That makes me nervous.. I hope that the SILK company will start making the original -- or even the no sugar-added soymilk in tetrapacks, like this!

I don't know for sure, because there are no nutritional values listed on the label, i.e., fat content, carbohydrate content, sugar, sodium e.t.c. Does anybody know. It seems to be pure but can not tell for sure. I use it to make sugar free dark chocolate, with sugar free Cocoa powder and Stevia powder instead of sugar
