Consumer labs did a study on a bunch of different protein powders and found body fortress to be the one that has the highest amount of protein for the cheapest price at .92 cost for daily suggested serving. The second was GNC AMP AMPLIED WHEYABOLIC followed by GNC pro performance, Jay Robb whey protein and Marked 100% whey protein complex. A lot of companies listed higher protein, lower cholesterol, lower sugar, lower calories, carbs than was actually found in the product when they lab tested it. Some were deemed NOT APPROVED such as PRO LAB advanced essential whey as it has 15.7 less grams of protein than stated and 16 grams more carbs and 3.4 grams more sugar. Also in the NOT APPROVED category was Dymatize nutrition with an added 1.2 grams of sugar and 10.2mg of cholesterol as well as optimum gold and nature's plus spiru-tein. Shakeology green berry was not approved for having found 12.7mcg's of LEAD...YES LEAD, THE HEAVY METAL! Hope that gives you a little info. Higher price doesn't always mean better! Here's the full report:https://www.consumerlab.com/reviews/...tritionDrinks/
 
I wouldn't get too worked up about anything consumerlab.com posts. It's a fucking joke and a scam. They try to appear as if they are consumer reports, but they are a pay to review site.

Consumer Lab claims to be working for the public; similar to Consumer Reports. It tests the concentration and purity of supplements, and it then reports its findings to paying customers. Individuals who want to know its results must subscribe to Consumer Lab for $30 a year, when we last checked pricing. In addition to getting money from the consumers, it also gets money from the supplement companies themselves. Companies pay them thousands of dollars for favorable product analysis and reviews. Recommendations from Consumer Lab have expiry dates, so manufacturers must pay again every 12 months, if they wish to continue using the certified "CL" seal. On one hand, companies are paying Consumer Lab for favorable reviews, while individuals are paying them for what they believe is objective reporting.
"Also try the vendors below, as each sells some of the products tested... We have not, however, tested nor approved all of the items that they carry, so check our Reviews. These vendors pay a fee to be listed below but we receive no revenue from purchases made. We have reviewed the advertisements for accuracy but do not review or endorse editorial information appearing on their websites.
