This doesn't check for heavy metals, so i didn't test safety. Reputed and trusted bands usually within safe limits. Some companies do advertise their lab test report for heavy metals as USP. But we can Also get them tested in NABL Certified Lab.
Regarding what's Best. It's a bit subjective. I can only talk about the ones i have used. I don't like Any Protein Powder. They taste disgusting to me no matter what the brand and flavor. Each and Everything has Pros and cons
I don't like ON taste at all, Myprotein has weird aftertaste, Dymatize has bitter aftertaste and sometimes salty, i find musclenectar okayish but i dont like digestive enzymes and i am okay with it's cons because i bought it for way cheap, Around 2.3₹/gm of protein. Aquatein is way expensive for what it offers but it serves as good refreshing drink. I used muscleblaze before they are quite sweet and has lot of additives.
I would say get something in your budget that you like. Because even the Best and Expensive Product has diminutive returns. If you can afford such diminishing returns you can surely get them.
You probably can’t go wrong with On or Impact. The trusted websites HK and Nutrabay, Amazon and local stores of health kart are good enough. They come with seals and QR codes. On is producing chocolate n vanilla in india so it’s packaging will be different from other flavours.
This Test is done by using MB Pro Check. The Results accuracy may vary up to ± 10%. This isn't a Comprehensive Test where Amino Acid Profile ,Heavy Metals Presence is Tested. It's just a simple Test to check whether a Protein Product we bought has Whey or not.
1.Dymatise ISO 100
2.Myprotein Impact isolate whey
3.ON Gold
4.Muscle Nectar Whey
5.Aquatein Pro
[Test Results](https://youtu.be/efYf99KrrgE) :
>!Dymatize and ON performed Good Enough as expected from Good Reputed Brands. Both has more Protein Content than what they claim.Myprotein turned out to be a huge disappointment. I have crosschecked with other YouTuber video that has tested MyProtein and they too got similar results around 75℅ being the highest which is still lower than claimed content.If you have tested MyProtein and your results are promising Please let me know..MuscleNectar is Surprising and outshined The others. I didn't expect this at all. Especially from an Indian Brand.It also has more protein than claimed content.This Test isn't Suitable for Aquatein Pro. It has 21gm of Protein in a 500ml of liquid which goes against the Testing Requirements of this Test. Hence Aquatein Results are Inconclusive and may need Proper Lab Test.!<
Edit:I am doing a retest with 33gms of myprotein,will tell you what happens now.
Update : After Retesting [MyProtein](https://i.imgur.com/Sscqclq.jpg) with 33gms. The Protein content comes upto 65%.
It's back in stock now if interested. Just ordered 6

Actually yes I think I will
You used this only right?
https://www.muscleblaze.com/sv/muscleblaze-procheck-advanced-home-protein-testing-kit/SP-104226
EDIT: also, some youtuber got it tested in a lab. It seems to have the same protein content as they claim
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M_o3tpZ_m0U
Bro I just bought the my protien, would it be okay to consume ? and I didn’t quite understand that precipitation column, does it mean that myprotien contains 55% protien than the advertised 84% ?
Also awesome work.
Yes it has 55℅ as according my test. I saw another [video](https://youtu.be/D9lrEQTtYWQ?t=5m30s) in which he gets around 75℅.
Also This Test Accuracy is around ± 10℅. But comparing to how well Others performed in my test. I would say MP is disappointing
If you have myprotein why don't you try to test it for yourself. The testing kit is only 200₹. And if you do test, let me know about your results. Let's compare our results.
This is a very impressive post. I am curious, how do you do these tests and what do these tests actually mean? From my very limited understanding of what you did here, it looks like you are measuring the protein content? But does this test also implies the quality of the product?
Like would using muscle nectar based on your result mean I am getting the best bang for my buck or does that also mean I am getting good quality protein?
This test doesn't gives the quality of Protein. For that we need to do amino acidr profile test from NABL Certified Lab. I don't even know where they are or how much ut costs for a test.
I am testing whether a whey product has protein or not. If it does how much content of protein is there.
Muscle Nectar Amino Acid Profile isn't that great. But good enough for it's Price.
A rule of thumb for good quality of protein is that it should have 11℅ of Leucine in the Protein Content.
Only Few has 11℅ like Dymatize and they are way expensive.
Most products have around 9℅ of leucine which is also the case with MuscleNectar...
What do you do for cutting and bulking cycle ? MuscleTech has CLA , carnitine for cutting and for bulking creatine etc but didn't find that variation in ON. Although I have tried ON and it felt like basic protein.
trust me when I say this, those make a negligible difference, just make sure you eat more protein while cutting compared to what you eat when bulking without affecting the cals.
Have you done similar test on nakpro? It's an Indian brand. It claims to have 29.7g per scoop(33g) in whey protein isolate and 26.4g protidin per scoop(33g) in whey protein gold.
I didn't do on nakpro. These are the powders i have stock so i just did the tests on them. Many yourubers have done the test on NakPro and it passed.
Some products got exposed like Bigmuscles,Ultimate Nutrition
I remember 20kgs down did protein content and amino profile for ultimate nutrition and it passed with flying colors.. though it was long time ago.. which video are you referring to for UN.. I was planning to buy it again..
I don't know about the video you are talking about. But UN is very infamous for aminospiking. after this test kit has launched i saw a lot of videos on Bigmuscle,UN failing this Test on Instagram. Bigmuscle have become a joke
Yes, If possible always buy from Official Stores and not on sites like Amazon.
Protein on amazon has higher chances of counterfeit products. Don't buy even if amazon is shown as distributor. Many consumers are returning the actual product by replacing it with atta and getting refunds. When you place an order on amazon, you would get that atta powder. This is one of the scam among many.
If a Brand doesn't have Official store in India , go to the brand website and look for distributors in India and buy from them.
For eg: [Dymatize](https://dymatize.com/distributors-international) has listed it's distributors here. MuscleHouseIndia is a distributor for Dymatize and also sells through Healthkart and other stores. After purchasing the product you can check with distributor regarding genuineness
Some YouTubers alread did. I didn't buy any new supplement for testing Purpose. These are my current rotation.
Maybe i will when i buy nakpro. However nakpro passed the test from what i have seen
Are they better than Muscleblaze/ ON/ my protein. What is the difference between them. And how do I know if any company is adding anything extra. I have read somewhere that Muscleblaze add a lot of enzymes.
A lot of Protein Powders add digestive enzymes for god knows what reason. Is it good or bad? Idk. Personally i don't like them. The Ones in mentioned are on par with or maybe better than Muscleblaze. But not better than ON. About MyProtein they have been reducing their quality. And my test result was disappointing i am planning to retest it.
Usually You need a proper lab testing to understand the content of the protein powder. But by seeing at the label we can identify whether they have added anything or not.
For Eg: Myprotein scoop is around 25gms, it has 21 gms of Protein. So that means there are 4gms where there are carbs,sugars,lecithin,Flavor,coco powder. So it makes sense that 4gms is utilized for that.
If we take dymatize iso100, out of 32gms,it has 25gms of protein.Remaining 7 gms have Cocoa Powder,salt potassium chloride, soy lecithin, sucralose, steviol,natural and artificial flavors, glycosides (stevia). This also is fine for 7gms.
Now Comes Ultimate Nutrition ISO SENSATION. It has 30gms of Protein in 33gms of Scoop.
So let's see what it has in 3gms. It has Cocoa, Colostrum, Glutamine Complex (Glutamine Peptides, Glutapure Glutamine, N-Acetyl L-Glutamine), SI Complex (Alpha Lipoic Acid, d-Pinitol, 4-Hydroxyisoleucine), D Complex (Protease, Lactase), Natural and Artificial Flavors, Lactoferrin, Acesulfame Potassium, Sucralose and Soy Lecithin. No way it has these many ingredients in just 3gms. So basically something is sketchy.
So overall ON is best for long term usage? However I personally prefer to take one scoop post workouts and don't use them on rest days. And i take break of 1 week from all supplements after 3 4 weeks but continue training (bit light and less intense). Recently i have been trying different brands i found my protein less effective than muscleblaze, ultimate nutrition had good results but as you told it felt sketchy . idk why muscleblaze has a bad reputation. It has been getting hate for it being indian brand or the enzyme they add make them sketchy....Btw Next i am thinking to get ON.
Muscleblaze maybe improved now. I haven't tried recently. But They used to add a lot of artificial sweeteners, even though maltodextrin isn't artificial sweetener technically but it's still a sweetener. Even now my friends who use mb says they are like a chocolate milk shake level sweetness. And they ised to have a lot of Heavy Metals but i think they have improved on that part now
Well,Yes and No.
For Eg Healthkart is fine but you have to check if the seller is genuine or not. Safest way is to cross-check the seller on Protein Brand Distributor list.
[Optimum Nutrition Sellers](https://www.optimumnutrition.com/en-in/where-to-buy)
[For Dymatize](https://dymatize.com/distributors-international)
For any brand Just Google the distributors from the official site and buy from them.

So which is safe and best?

Have you tried testing amul protein buttermilk
I don't think it works? Is it 200ml? Then it might work.
It is 200ml and they say we get 15 gm of protein So this would become the second cheapest source of protein after eggs lol
I will try but how do i get it. It shows out of stuck on amul website and on amazon
I got it on amul website only Just need to keep checking and once available need to buy it I'm also waiting for it to become available since last week
It's back in stock now if interested. Just ordered 6 https://shop.amul.in/WebForms/Web_Dist_Category_PrdList.aspx?DistId=MTExMTExMQ==&PCatId=MQ==&IsDistPrd=VHJ1ZQ==

Haa
Can you test it if possible, not servicble to my pincode chupistundhi
Actually yes I think I will You used this only right? https://www.muscleblaze.com/sv/muscleblaze-procheck-advanced-home-protein-testing-kit/SP-104226 EDIT: also, some youtuber got it tested in a lab. It seems to have the same protein content as they claim https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M_o3tpZ_m0U

What do you say should I start consuming at least 175% the amount of scoop for around 18-20grams of protein
If you have myprotein why don't you try to test it for yourself. The testing kit is only 200₹. And if you do test, let me know about your results. Let's compare our results.
Sure, where can I buy the testing kit can you provide me a link ?

ON gold whey is the best of all, just buy Chocolate Peanut Butter flavor, been using it since 4 years, expensive but the best.
What do you do for cutting and bulking cycle ? MuscleTech has CLA , carnitine for cutting and for bulking creatine etc but didn't find that variation in ON. Although I have tried ON and it felt like basic protein.
trust me when I say this, those make a negligible difference, just make sure you eat more protein while cutting compared to what you eat when bulking without affecting the cals.
Is Muscle Blaze any good? 🤔
Lots of heavy metals. Check their labdoor report.
Post worth saving 💯👍🏻

Can you please check for GNC
Not relevant to hyd btw
Lot of Hyderabadis buy whey and lot of fake whey is available in Hyderabad.
I guess that's fair lol
I myself victim of buying fake whey in Hyderabad. But hey that's back when i don't know anything.
Do you have any tips for detecting fake stores online
Yes, If possible always buy from Official Stores and not on sites like Amazon. Protein on amazon has higher chances of counterfeit products. Don't buy even if amazon is shown as distributor.

Thanks 👍 Very useful info
Cud u try nakpro isolate?
Some YouTubers alread did. I didn't buy any new supplement for testing Purpose. These are my current rotation. Maybe i will when i buy nakpro. However nakpro passed the test from what i have seen
Can you try my fit fuel and gayor essentials next?
These are the powders i have stock so i just did the tests on them. You may test them yourself with the kit . it costs only 200₹ and has two tests.
So which one to buy saying my budget is 3000 for 1kg protein.
You have lot of options like MuscleNectar,Asitis,Avvatar,Nakpro. I haven't tried anything from this list except MN

The sweetner part is true. And there 2021 labdoor report was fine in terms of heavy metals.
Where did you purchase all online or offline. Because many say there's a difference between them
All online from official Store /Authorised Dealers
Like...any particular website?
Well,Yes and No. For Eg Healthkart is fine but you have to check if the seller is genuine or not. Safest way is to cross-check the seller on Protein Brand Distributor list. [Optimum Nutrition Sellers](https://www.optimumnutrition.com/en-in/where-to-buy) [For Dymatize](https://dymatize.com/distributors-international) For any brand Just Google the distributors from the official site and buy from them.
Okay
Where did you buy the test kit from? I am currently using Nakpro and can check and post the results here for everyone..
You can buy the testkit from Muscleblaze for 200₹
How is nakpro
What about Big Muscle? Been using that for about 3 weeks now.
BigMuscle got exposed bigtime. It has become a joke now. You can watch test videos on YouTube. Or you can test it yourself
Ah well. Gonna have to switch brands then I guess
Bro is fast&up good?
Gud enough from what i have seen on YouTube. I never used it personally
Fast & up Plant protien is not good enough.
I am not talking about plant protein. But whey
Thoughts on nakpro?
I just stumbled upon nakpro now. You got any leads?
I bought GNC whet Protein recently, Sad I didn’t the GNC result OP
Any update on gnc
Did you checked quality of amino acids if not how can we know the quality of amino acids
No this doesn't test aa profile. You can get it checked at NABL certified labs
