Here we have Lab test results of the most popular protein powder. why we need lab test? isn't the label enough? well, the regulation doesn't require the producers to conduct independent laboratory test to proof the label claims let alone the effectiveness of the product (we get to that point in another post).
first of all, i haven't done any test myself, because i don't have enough funds for this. but trustworthy guys done so. "Labdoor USA" a private laboratory and "Cave Man Tech" a Russian youtuber who collected donation to conduct tests.
Labdoor tested 74 Protein Powder, you can see click your protein and see hints, but if you want the full results you must pay. check here and see for yourself : https://labdoor.com/rankings/protein
"Cave's Man tech" analyzed the amino acid profile to checking for amino spiking. he, too, can't provide the full test results (unless if he wants stay behind bars for months) but he do provide valuable information about the purity and Full-Protein content.
this is how he conducted the tests. first he sent a control powder (a protein powder witch the amino acid profile is known) to few laboratories and picked the most accurate lab. now we sure that the laboratory is trustworthy. then he sent unlabeled but numbered jars to the laboratory (to avoid the lab copying the Label Claims or Contacting the company asking for money).
Now i will let you with results:
Mex Nitro Whey
protein content: 70.1% (Label: 70% )
15% of the protein content comes from cheap soy protein
5% is free Aminos.
Amino spiking? YES! but it's said on the products (Added glutamin and sh*t)
Dymatize Elite Whey
Protein Content: 59.4% (Label: 68.3%)
9% of protein is missing, except that everything is fine. no amino spiking. many supplier in US (including tiger fitness) have stopped selling this product due to Quality problems! from my opinion, Dymatize produces the most ineffective products in the world, once i tried their Gainer with my brother we were awfully disappointed for wasting our money.
Protein Content: 55.7% (Label 61%)
Amino acide profile fine but a little glutamin is added
Protein Content 76.2% (Label 76%)
Amino Acid Profile is just perfect.
this is not a surprise for a product made in germany where regulations are tight.
Arnold Iron Whey
Protein Content: 63.3% (Label 68%)
don't be mad about the 5% missing protein, the amino acid profile is just WOW. the products is mostly Taurin, BCAA and some glutamine. the company was sued in court many times but always reach agreement outside court. the worst protein powder ever made.
Syntrax Whey
20% of the powder is glutamine! Amino spiking at it's best
MyProtein
Protein Content 82% (same as the label)
Amino Acid profile is just perfect. a big thanks to the representative of Myprotein Russia for donating with almost half the funds of the entire Laboratory bill. he had a reason to do so.
Protein content: 68% (73% on the label)
No free amino acids added, however, the laboratory suggests the 5% less protein it's intended and not a mistake!
protein content: 84% (87% on the label)
Amino Acid Profile Fine and corresponds to Whey Isolate.
but, the new version of this protein misses 10% of the protein claimed on the label (Ronie, you disappointed us)
Protein content 71% as claimed on the label. amino acid profile is perfect. You have my respect kevin!
protein content:71%, claimed 83% big difference
Amino acid profile is good and correspond to whey protein. but 10% protein less is rape! i used to be fan of this brand, until now.
71% protein just as said on the label, amino acid profile is good and correspond to whey protein.
Here we reached the end of the list, big thanks to cave's man tech for this great video
