Visi ~ NOTHING COMPARES TO OUR PROTEIN ~ What is the real difference between commercial brand whey protein and the VISI product line? Simple . . . quality. Commercially manufactured protein powders are produced in extremely high volumes and are sold at a premium. Retailers are able to sell a 2lb tub of protein for $25 because the ingredients that make up those powders are not highly regulated and contain fillers. In order to keep cost down, manufacturers use artificial sweeteners, colors, and flavors. Keeping in mind that SRP (suggested retail price) is normally set a little over 50%, that means the retailer paid roughly $12 for that tub and the manufacturer also turned a profit of at least 30% (including packaging costs). That means the product in the container is worth less than an energy drink. Direct selling companies and nutritional companies have their products produced on a much smaller scale - giving them more control over the manufacturing process. Because products are produced this way, product testing is more accurate - ensuring better product quality. If you are a health and fitness enthusiast, you understand the importance of proper nutrition and wouldnt dare fill your body with boxed macaroni and cheese because its cheap... why would you purchase an inferior supplement? Because it has a picture of The Rock on it? Think about this . . . celebrities are selected to represent products based off their current status and physique. That celebrity had the body before he/she got the endorsement. For those wondering about the difference between the coveted whey protein and collagen protein, heres a breakdown for you: #1) the body absorbs only 53% - tops - of whey protein... which means that if you are paying for 50 gr of whey, youre only absorbing 26g (at best) and the rest is going to the liver and kidneys. 2) Whey is produced from cows milk . . . milk that is derived from cattle that have been fed (mostly) a GMO based grain diet AND have been injected with hormones and antibiotics to produce more milk... these GMOs, hormones, and antibiotics are then transferred to the whey and into our bodies. (see information on the effects of GMOs on the human body) 3) whey protein has been proven to induce inflammation in the muscles and connective tissues, which impedes growth and slows recovery. When you consider that the VISI product line is GMO, lactose, gluten, and soy free; AND, contains 99.5% bio-identical collagen protein which has been proven to be the most highly absorbable source and actually speeds up cellular regeneration (helps in healing and reduction of inflammation), you understand that the difference between commercial grade whey protein and Visi collagen protein is like comparing commercially grown produce to certified organically grown produce.
