The company that manufactured the popular protein American Whey has closed its doors after an FDA investigation that found repeated violations of mislabeling and filthy manufacturing and warehouse conditions.
During a recent inspection, FDA investigators found that several of the companies’ products contained milk ingredients that were not declared on the product labels. In addition, the company failed to clean processing equipment between batches and control allergens in the facility. FDA investigators also discovered live and dead rodents and rodent urine, feces and gnaw holes on bags of product. Here is a direct link to the FDA press release about their investigation into American Sports Nutrition (ASN) in Paterson, NJ.
Is this really the kind of stuff you want to be putting into your body?
It’s no wonder the protein tasted so good! It was loaded with tons of “filler” ingredients that improved taste and made the product cheaper to manufacturer, while you got less protein in each serving than the label actually said.
Fortunately, there is still a great-tasting alternative – Supreme Whey. This is a Physical Addictions product that we’ve sold for years with the same great taste as American Whey (okay, maybe not the same, but 90% of the way there because we use real stuff!) with higher quality ingredients and more protein. We took all of the best features of American Whey and removed all of the junk, and this was the result. Thousands of customers have been satisfied with the taste and quality of this protein over the years; we just never had the marketing power of American Whey. But what goes around comes around, and that product was finally uncovered for what it really is!
Supreme Whey has 24 grams of protein and only 6 carbs in a single scoop! You’re getting more high quality protein with every serving, and it’s available in 3 great flavors: Chocolate, Vanilla and Strawberry.
