What Supplements do you take

Whey and creatine are enough for 99% of gymmers.

In addition I take Vitamins B, C, E tablets, and a calcium + D3 tablet everyday to make sure I’m getting those - since my diet is mostly chicken and eggs with a bit of veggies here and there.

Who is this "Trustified" Company? Not much info about them on their Website or elsewhere on the Web.
Click to expand...
It started as a YouTube channel that tested protein powders independently and published results.
They have since branched out and now test a variety of products and put the reports up on their channel and website.

Here's the YT channel: https://www.youtube.com/@Trustified-Certification/videos
They've recently won a landmark case in the Delhi High Court against a company that took them to court for defamation (the company was selling products which were not as advertised)!

How come you seem to know so much about them and resolutely defending their methodology?

Hope you're not some sort of a shill for this company!

Bruh. Anyone in India looking to buy legit protein powders knows him as he was only one testing these products consistently for years. There is no special methodology, he send all the samples to Eurofin, a company utilized by many brands for testing. You can do it urself, it cost something like 10K-20K for protein sample testing. He is doing it now for commercial testing & offer certifications.

What @Darth Vader said.

And to add to that, you don't even need to take our word for it.
On their YT channel, they go through their methodology and reports for every product they test.
You can check them out and verify it for yourself.

They also show these reports including the batch numbers tested and the Report IDs.
You can note down the Report ID and confirm it's authenticity directly with Eurofins.

Thinking of trying out the the whole truth whey protein
Click to expand...
I have tried their Whey Isolate (unflavoured).
Has no taste and no after taste, as intended.
Easily mixed with any fruit or flavored shake, or taken bare.

That said, i found it more expensive than some of its competitors in terms of protein/unit cost, so I've since moved on to Musclenectar.

They do have the highest protein per scoop though. So if someone is looking to maximise that, it'd be a good choice.

No matter when I take those burps smell worse than my farts so I ain’t going back there

Musclenectar also makes Omega 3 which is trustified certified.
They infuse it with citrus/lemon flavors.

Been taking it for a couple on months now with food. Burps are rare, but when they do occur, they are lemon-y, not fishy.
Maybe you could try it out and see if it works for you.

Or you could give some of those veg omega 3s a shot. No idea how they taste/smell, but they definitely shouldn't be fishy.

EDIT: I've attached a spreadsheet I made some time ago comparing some good protein powders and their costs and characteristics.
Hope it helps!

Regarding Cod Liver Oil Capsules. Cod is fished in the Atlantic, most caught fish in the UK.

Seven Sea's company was established in 1935 in the UK. Seven Sea's is the de-dacto standard when it comes to Cod Liver Oil, everything else is just imitation.

I'm sure it is!
But we are talking about Omega 3.
And that has many sources, not just cod.
 
I see.

Well your post could have been misconstructed in the context of the conversation considering Seven Seas markets their Cod Liver Oil mostly as an Omega 3 supplement.
Which is why I thought to clarify.

I’ve been taking Naturaltein unflavored isolate for the past two years and it’s been great. Have you tried it?

I must try the whole truth’s unflavored isolate.

My dream is to buy a box of Dymatize hydrolysate someday :p
