Dymatize Elite Whey Protein
There was a vendor handing out Dymatize product at the recent Maryland State NPC contest. A 29.4 gram packet offers a mere 112 calories, but offers a mighty 23 grams of protein. The rep also mentioned that the cholesterol is less than some whey products (5 mg for Dymatize versus 30 mg in ON’s 100% Whey - the Dymatize is the aforementioned 29.4 grams versus ON’s 30.4 grams, but that’s nothing compared to the big difference in cholesterol).
Cholesterol’s not a factor for me especially as mine was 143 with HDL reading 58 and LDL at 75. That reading was reported in March 2006, of course, but I can’t see how it’s increased.
Note on cholesterol ratio:
Some physicians and cholesterol technicians use the ratio of total cholesterol to HDL cholesterol in place of the total blood cholesterol. The ratio is obtained by dividing the HDL cholesterol level into the total cholesterol. For example, if a person has a total cholesterol of 200 mg/dL and an HDL cholesterol level of 50 mg/dL, the ratio would be 4:1. The goal is to keep the ratio below 5:1; the optimum ratio is 3.5:1.
So if I plug in my old numbers that puts me at 2.47:1? I’m crap at math. LITTLE HELP! ;)
Regardless, Dymatize Elite Whey Protein is great stuff (and available courtesy of Bodybuilding.com, too)!!! See their Dymatize Elite Whey page.
It’s advertised as having “Instant Mixability” and it certainly does - shaker bottle didn’t have any clumps left behind. And it tastes great!
What protein are you currently using?
