I was thinking about ordering some AST NY-TRO-PRO 40,for extra protein in a meal form, since I dont get many breaks at work. However I was still wanting to keep taking my protein whey shakes as well several hours later. I saw on AST web site you shouldnt mix or take other b/c it will counter the effect of there product. Is this hype to get you to buy only theres or is there truth to this.

I dont get this. Does AST say that you cant take whey protein while using ny-tro pro ? AST is a VERY knowledgable company. It think it comes down to that you dont need to supplement with whey or any other protein when u use ny-tro-pro. Its a complete meal. But of course you should still take your whey shakes in the morning and after training (at least)....Remember to eat your protein every three hours!

whats the difference, either than how much they cost, between their VyoPro and Vp2 shakes

Vyopro is 88% whey and VP2 is 95%.

Actually:

Vyopro contains 18 grams of protein for each 25 gram serving. So...18/25=72% protein

VP2 contains 24 grams of protein for each 28 gram serving.So....24/28=85.7142857%

Funny how AST tries to mislead you as to the extent of "actual" protein in their product.

They always figure out other companies total protein by dividing the grams of protein by the serving size. But when it comes to their products, apparently they figure it out a different way to make their products appear better than they really are!!

the reason ast tells you not to mix any other product with their nytro pro is, the nytro pro is scientifically formulated with specific ingredients, in specific ratios. it is the synergistic effect of these nutrients that gives the results. mixing other products with theirs will upset the mix and not yield favorable results. anyway, you don't need to take extra protein in the form of powders if you are using nytro pro. eat real food whenever possible.

What are you ? the AST sales rep ? Balance my ass, that shit costs about 8 bucks a pound to make retail, so they get it even cheaper. And what do they charge ? AST are a bunch of liars, if you don't believe me look up my post entitled "AST is fraudulent" in the main supp board.
