I am very careful what I consume and try to avoid ingesting chemicals as much as possible. I once wanted to start a company that blends various forms customised helath drinks and market it in India, as a result I had researched the industry a lot. One thing I can tell you is, whey is a very easy and safe form of protien for the human body to digest (while the same cannot be said about casein or soy) but as long as it does not have growth enzymes or artificial sweeteners and flavours blended into it. This is where this product excels. If you can get past the taste (which is not bad at all, just tastes mildly milky when mixed with water), health wise this is the best product that I recommend. Yes, better than whey isolates or hydrolysates. The reason being, raw whey concentrates have whole host of other minerals and vitamins in the other 20% that is not whey, while in further refined isolates and hydrolysates it is removed to up the whey concentration by another 10-15% at a cost that is two to three times raw whey. Allow me to also add that, there are only 3-4 big whey manufacturing companies in the world. These are big dairy companies like Hilmar, Glanbia, Fonterra and such. All the health supplements manufacturing companies buy whey in the forms of concentrates, isolates and hydrolysates from these giants to rebrand them with additives and market them. Around 2012-2013, the only all natural whey protein by another company was banned in India because of Stevia content (which is perfectly safe, as it's a natural sugar) thanks to Indian bureaucracy, we athlete friends started buying 20kg raw whey concentrate through the Indian distributor of Hilmar and divided it among ourselves. We used to do that untill this product came up on shelf. Since then I am buying this and when it sells at discount, the price is close to or sometimes less than what we paid for the 20kg pack from Hilmar. And yes, this product is same as that and every other raw whey that comes out of the dairy giants of the world. Also, I am happy that this product from Muscleblaze exists, as it saves us so much hassle. Another benefit: because it's unflavoured and unsweetened, it's very versatile. Can be used in cooking like with oats porridge, omelettes, smoothies, etc or just knead it in chapati dough. The downside: Raw whey can be a bit of a problem for lactose intolerant people, while isolates and hydrolysates have less lactose in them. Happy training and healthy living!
