New and looking for information on Hydro Whey.

All hydrolyzed proteins taste bad. The quality of a hydrolyzed protein is pretty much solely judged on its molecular weight average (MW). the smaller the number the smaller the peptides are. di an tri peptides the final version of amino acids that enter into the blood steam weigh between 200 and 300 daltons.

I carry 3 hydrolyzed proteins.

hydrolyzed 1400
hydrolyzed 520
PeptoPro.

the 1400 has a MW of 1400 daltons...and so forth.

PeptoPro has an average MW of about 300 daltons.

All three of these products 95% of people cant drink straight. even with the flavoring.

Thus we only add very small amounts into whole food proteins. for example

80% CFm whey isolate
20% 1400.

The highest you want to use of a hydrolyzed protein is about 25%...any higher and you probably wont be able to drink the powder.

you will see alot of companies marketing hydrolyzed proteins. But none of the list MW average of the protein. Why? because they buy cheap hydrolyzed proteins that are slightly hydrolyzed and have high MW...5,000 to 10,000 daltons. they buy them because they know the average consumer will not drink bad tasting protein.

we do not carry beta alanine. I think its a fad supplement and secondly most if not all beta alanine is coming out of China. I dont buy my nutraceuticals from china. maybe if a quality USA manufacturer came online...but as of right now...beta alanine is made in China.

welcome sklander..the hydro 520 gets a bad rap for taste but i actually enjoy it (choc). hydro 520 mixed with pepto and isolate..lookout. really luv these pf products and i know u will also

china supplements

I guess I would just give them a call about whipping up a protein blend of Isolate and 520, then?

I am ready to order asap. Can it be done online via email or is it better to call?

just go to the lab and custom blend the formula u want. it'll walk u thru every step and u can place order online..couldnt be easier

Okay, I have put together a few things and have a few questions.

If I am adding the BCAA's how will I know how much is in a scoop (25gms)? How much percentage of the powder should I make it?

Can anyone shed some light on using the Oat Muscle or Instant OatMuscle for a pre/post workout concoction?

why dont u just use another tsp of the protein powder for ur bcaa content. as has been said free form bcaa havnt been shown to be ergogenic. most wheys contain a very large percentage of bcaa's so save urself money and just use some extra protein powder. as for the oatmuscle its awesome. its has a low glycemic index so fat storage is held to a minimum and its glycogen replinishing properties r great. i personally use mainly for pwo in a formula containing 55-60g oatmuscle, 10g pepto, 20g hydro 520, 25g isolate and 5g creapure. i mix these in my gym using scales. usually before my w/o ive eaten a carb rich meal so ill only take in some hydro 1300 for its anabolic/ anti-catabolic properties.

just use regular whey. like CFM rather than BCAA just like dj said...

also oatmuscle is great, it has a sweet taste and the instant one is just simply replacing the older version because it wont clump on you compared to the regular otamuscle. but they both have a natural sweet taste which i love...

you will most likely hate the taste of hydro so like alex said keep it at like 20%...but if quality and performance is what you want. try a higher percentage post workout and pre...

oatmuscle is good preworkout and post because it will give you sustained energy and provide you with the necessary carbs to stay lean if that is your goal.

So do y'all have the oatmuscle mixed in your custom powder already or do you buy it separate?

I was thinking about this:

60% cfm whey isolate
20% hydro 520
10% peptopro
10% undecided - maybe this is too high a percentage for creatine. How much percentage of creatine should I put in the mix for a 2 - 3 gm dose in a 50 gm scoop.

Do the proteins come in a tub with a scooper or do you have to measure it yourself?
