Anyone who knows their protein supplements, I bought Weider PLUS PROTEIN (Chocolate flavour) from Costco a while back. Everything is in Korean on the bottle.

Could anyone tell me if this is a decent supplement? I've heard that it's mainly SOY protein? Which i'm not entirely down with in large doses.
Also i'm not even sure if i take 1 scoop or 2 with each 34g serving.

Any help from someone who's done some research on this product would be great thanks.

Most people on here will say it's low grade crap. GNC is a step up. There are online sites where you can order better quality stuff.

I just buy the GNC stuff so I couldn't tell you the other links.

ya i hear u. there's definitely better powders out there, i'm just using this stuff for 2 months though, plus i already have it. Just wondering if it's safe or would do me more harm than good. Especially if it's a Soy Protein supplement...that's much worse.

I got the same thing. It's two scoops per serving. I have only been doing half that, cause it is soy and it's pretty nasty. Got it to use while waiting for something better in the mail.

How long before some body totes I-Herb! That is starting to get annoying! I mean it is good but keep on topic.
