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?

I still haven't figured anything out about the pectin but have been having good luck with using about 3 tablespoons of non-fat dry milk powder. I wouldn't think this should contribute to bad cholesterol as it is made only from skim milk.

375 You can find the Nutritional Information at this link (assuming Amazon allows external links) http://www.nestlehealthscience.us/products/Pages/ISOSOURCE®-1-5-CAL.aspx If not go look up Nestle Health Science and the data is listed there. Good product, too bad it doesn't come in Chocolate... :)

All fish oil has tiny amounts of cholesterol, but it is negligible. But science shows that people who take fish oil generally have a significant reduction of triglcyerides. I can't speak for how other companies set their prices. But, we have a direct relationship with the company that sources and distills the fish oil, so we're able to cut out the middleman. Also we feel strongly that everyone should take the highest quality product available so they get results, so we try to keep our prices down

It's possible that it's an error, OR it's also possible that they're warning you that the protein that's sourced from peas is less-bioavailable than that from whey, which is the "gold standard" of protein powder bioavailability. (Funny, but I always thought that egg whites were the highest, then whey.)

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

yes, this is misleading because the ingredients by law need to be listed in strongest-quantity-first order. So how can the higher amount of 5% B3 be listed after the lower 1% retinol? My understanding is that it should be the other way around unless maybe there is a missing decimal point before the 5% and it is really .5% B3. I am just a consumer and don't know much, but this is my guess.

The dietary information on the label is for 1 or 2 scoops, so base your decision on that and your personal needs. I always use one whole scoop.

I don't know the content. I would think it is high. Most products seem to put more then enough salt for anyone's taste. The person selling this product should be able to give you your answer.Regards, A. Black Coada.

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.

For me it's ok when mixed with most other things. I like Chocolate Whey and maybe some skim milk to taste. I've also mixed it with Cytomax. Personal taste, just mix it with something you like and it's fine. I'm on my third large container and don't notice the taste any more. It's a lot better than trying to eat the large amount of veggies you are supposed to eat every day.

As i have finished the package already, not sure. However, you can just look at the nutrition label on the back. Go to their website, and you can look it up. Or other websites that sell it may have the label you can view the picture of it. Great product though. Price/gram of high quality, organic whey...this is your best bet. I reviewed at least a dozen other organic whey products before choosing this one. I just wish they sold a quantity larger than 2lbs to help bring down the price/gram. Good luck

I have used Baker's unsweetened chocolate for as long as I can remember. I have always bought it at the grocery store. Last month I noticed that the box looked the same, but there was only 4 ounces of chocolate instead of 8 for the same price. I was able to find the 8 ounce box on Amazon and that is why I bought it online. To answer your question, I don't know how healthy it is, but I think it IS the same ol' bitter formula we've become accustomed to.
