At Costco and thinking about plant based protein. Any thoughts on this product for health and recovery?
>>

I don't know anything about it, but I'm gonna assume you're just paying more for less.
Doesn't meat protein have like everything you need?
>>
>>36179883
Yes but I'm giving up meat for personal reasons
>>
>>36179901
Oh so you finally decided to join the vegan master race? Add one to the team fellas ;-)
>>
>>36179917
I've been thinking about it for awhile. Still eating eggs and some fish for now though
>>
I hear soy gives men estrogen
>>
>>36179901
>personal reasons
Like what?
>>
>>36180118
That's a bunch of bullshit. I know several traps and none of them take soy

>>36180118
It does but not in the quantities to have any effect on the body. Youd have yo eat nothing but soy all day everyday to have a measurable difference in hormone levels
>>
>>36180138
They should. Probably better and healthier than HRT.

>>36180195
I've read otherwise.
>>
>>36179860
If it's on sale I'll buy it just for the extra 2 servings of leafy greens, but for the most part I stopped buying protein powder. I'd rather get my macros from actual food, but having a little of that stuff in the cupboard for days that my protons come up short is a good back up.
>>
>>36179860
I got that kind before. It was the foulest shit I've ever tasted that was meant to be food.
Maybe it was just that brand, but it tasted like someone squeezed all the juice of a compost bin.
>>
>>36180242
Fuck, I just bought it. Oh well, Costco has a pretty good return policy

>HE USED STEROIDS

ALREADY DIDN'T MAKE IT
>>
>>36180242
It just tastes like soy milk and flax seed desu senpai
>>
>>36180671
Good form, Pepe
>>
>>36179860
Very low amount of Lucine which means almost zero protein synthesis, basically that product is absolutely shit for making any kind of muscle gains, Unless of course you buy Lucine by itself and add it to that shit but why bother. Just eat egg whites or buy WPI, you know something that acutally helps you make gains
>>
>>36179860
Most disgusting protein powder I've ever had. Just stick to real food.
>>
Just take whey you fucking faggot
>>
>>36179917
kek
>>
>>36181364

not OP but I tried it, tastes fine but yeah the price is way too high
>>
I have replaced protein powder with meat since meat prices are outrageous in Canada and it's impossible for me to buy it everyday
>>
>>36180671
This Pepe is literally goals family.
>>
>>36181403
What flavor? I had vanilla and it was horrible.
>>
>>36179860
I get Growing Naturals rice protein chocolate flavor, it doesn't taste great on its own but with some almond milk, peanut butter, and cocoa/chocolate syrup it tastes just as good as whey IMO.
>>
>>36181433
vanilla... but like whey, I mix it with oats, frozen fruits and a raw egg in a blender.
Perhaps it tastes like shit with only water

>Yes but I'm giving up meat for personal reasons
Then why bother asking us? You've already made up your mind, and you really don't have any other options. So why bother us with it? We don't agree with your choice, we think you're sabotaging yourself, and you know that, so rationally one must conclude that you're posting this as a troll, and that you're not really giving up meat. So, then, logically: this thread has no legitimate reason to exist, one way or another, therefore: Please fuck off.
