I just wanted to check to see if there are any new supplement companies in the UK and which ones you have tried and think are fantastic.

Reflex - awesome, however a bit boring on the flavour for the whey protein
http://www.reflex-nutrition.com/en/

MaxiMuscle - great for testing products for contamination, but the whey protein tasted like ass the last time I tried it. I love their team MaxiMuscle clothing though.
http://www.maximuscle.com/

CNP - Chemical Nutrition - Kerry Kayes is a protein genius, he writes great articles, I really rate their products, however, they are expensive as hell.
I also like they sponser several top natural bodybuilders.
http://www.cnpprofessional.co.uk/index.php

Extreme Nutrition - great for the lactose intolerant BBer, they also do a 3 different protein source blend 'whey' protein that I think is interesting, and it tastes great.

Any others?

My Protein - very diverse range of products, including whole foods. Their protein (choc smooth) tastes great.

However, I though Maximuscles' choc WHey tastes good too.

I have always thought of Maximuscle as the british equivalent to Muscletech - can't say I rate their products too highly.

MyProtein is my preferred choice.

Muscleform (http://www.muscleform.co.uk/) are similar to MyProtein, and I believe IFBB Pro Simon Cohen is sponsored by them.

PHD Is a decent company ive used, very popular in our gym and has some unique protein flavours like white chocolate and chocolate chip cookie.

Vyomax - My gym supplies this protein. I buy the whey concentrate and mix it with my Dymatize Isolate. The Vyomax deluxe protein is very cost effective and decent for taste and mixability.

Oh yes, MyProtein, I love how their plain flavour tastes.

Also Bulkpowders.co.uk.

I can't believe I forgot one of my favs, PhD Nutrition. Their whey protein tastes fabulous.

I'm using PhD's Pharma-Whey as my protein right now, i'm not that fond of the taste compared to something like ON Whey's and it tends to froth up alot but it's still pretty good.

What about Garnell Nutrition?

http://www.garnellnutrition.co.uk/products.htm

My mate's gym is sponsored by Garnell and he loves their products.

I found that with PHD mate. Pretty poor mixability and quite gummy tasting.

The chocolate mint is absolutely minging.

I couldn't eat it.

.

Cookies and Cream, Dairy Flavour and the Vanilla are nice.

I can't remember if the chocolate is all that nice.


Has anyone ever used Nutrisport?

Super cheap protein and other supps, the protein tasted quite nice, but after using it for awhile, it really didn't sit well with my digestive tract.

Undenatured Cross-Flow Microfiltered Whey Protein Isolate (65%), Isolated Undenatured Micellar Casein (33%), Stabiliser (pea fibre), Sweeteners (cyclamate, Saccharin), Natural Flavour.

I still think their glutamine is amazing, tastes great. I typically just scoop the powder in my mouth when I am using glutamine.

I used the strawberry flavour 90+ Protein; a good mix but a bit sickly after a while. The Whey from bulkpowders is good and cheap, I have been advised to try the Whey Protein Isolate 90% (Instantised) (http://www.bulkpowders.co.uk/product.php/277/18/whey_protein_isolate_90___instantised_/c4de6f42f1d102a2daa99be6fe1ef005), so this will be my next. I am also going to get some of this:

I've tried the strawberry Nutrisport 90 and it was ok. I'm using the vanilla right now and it's much better for mixability and taste. Get 5kg for £40 so as a student that's really affordable. The pure whey protein isolate is about £20 more expensive but it's worth it if you stomach can't the 90.

I've been tempted to buy their protein for a while now seeing as it's so cheap but I keep thinking that there must be some sort of catch so I opt against it.

I've had no problems but then again this is what I've used the most so I can't really compare it to anything else. The Whey protein isolate is around £60 for 5kg and is very good imho. I've always wondered why the 90 is so cheap. If you go straight to their site the it is £65 but the retail sites sell it for £20 or more less.

hey folks,tried nutrisport and it tastes like ass biscuits,its very cheap for a reason,phd pharma whey is nice in the cookies n creme and choc mint,straw and vanilla are not great. cnp is good,reflex is good price but tastes bland(not bad but bland). someone said maximuscle is british eqivelant of muscletech and that is perfectly put,overpriced and does not taste good but lots of people start out on this stuff but find out they can cheaper-better tasting product. nutrition x is ok and cheap but again,not great taste

Yeah i used to buy their Pro50 protein bars, quite expensive but 50g of protein per bar.

Just bought some whey isolate from them too, tastes like shit though so probably wont buy it again

Since you guys live in UK. Don't you guys go for Dorian Yates approved ones??
I heard that the products are very good....They started shipping those to India from early this year...I am confused to buy them or not

Myprotein has always been reliable and I like their prices, so I stick with them. (Doesn't affect my guts either).

I've used CNP, Reflex and Biotest in the past, Reflex were cheap, CNP and Biotest were not.

I only buy whey, fish oil and ZMA, so I can't comment too much on other supplements though.

The 90+ chocolate protein is fucking lovely, it's cheap too so I buy it 20kg at a time, costs me 174 quid. (4x5kg tubs)

I can't believe anybody would shell out for maximuscle, small tubs for stupid prices, if it wasn't for their deal with argos those dudes would fold at those prices. Tried all their shit years ago and it's no better than anything else.
