Is protein powder bought in online stores like Amazon safe?

[RonG96]

Im worried it could be counterfeit

[YourFutureEx]

No, don't buy it.

I am also considering to buy protein so, checked Amazon and I was surprised by the prices. The ones which are worth Rs. 8400 are being sold for just Rs. 5000. The prices are jaw dropping. And there was not even any special sale.

I checked the reviews and they were very poor. Almost every buyer reported that the inner seal was broken which proves that it is contaminated.

There are so many counterfeit products when it comes to protein. You won't (can't) even notice the difference sometimes. They're so clever.
I asked my trainers and they told me to not to risk it. I'm buying it from an authorised store. Not gonna risk my health and wealth for the sake of just 25% discount.

Buy it from authorised store and be tension free.
Best of luck :)

I used to buy from bodybuilding but nowadays I get everything from Amazon, seems cheaper and I get free shipping. I have even bought from eBay a few times, just don't buy from GNC, it's way over priced.

[RonG96]

yes amazon is cheaper than bodybuilding I compared

[itsallover]

Amazon is a pretty reliable site, it's eBay that I would be worried about.

I doubt it... a few years back there was a medicine from China that was ordered online by many Belgians. It's goal was to lake you lose weight.
But all those who bought and took it got immediate and total kidney failure and needed a life saving transplant :-(
So as you suggest, be careful!

Hell yea its safe lol Most of them are from third party retailer but I've never had a issue with then and amazon is way big site to sell fake shit and why not just buy it from bodybuilding. com? It's way cheap

[RonG96]

OK thanks

[Ihav2fart]

It is and there's always a risk of getting bad stuff on amazon

[takumii]

Don't buy edible stuff online. If you wanna buy dietary supplements I recommend nutrilite.

[THE_Godfather]

Amazon, probably. Why not look at bodybuilding. com

[Anonymous]

I'd probably go through one of the well regarded online protein sources. I've used truenutrition. com for example. I usually want straight whey with nothing added.

Amazon is reliable. You could always just go into a store. Most have several brands of protein powder.

[9mfeo]

Um. I wouldn't trust it.

[RonG96]

Yeah I have my suspicions

[9mfeo]

I would much rather go to a health food store where I can talk to a human about it and compare etc. But do whatever you think is best.

[akadatank44]

Should he safe but was a verified amazon seller?

[Squidward]

Is that a serious question?

[RonG96]

Yeah because I have known of fake Chinese stuff sold in Amazon

[Squidward]

what @Polocrew said. Amazon is a big store and can't afford bad publicity.

[RonG96]

You have regained my trust in Amazon now I taught it was like eBay

[apple24]

I think so. Just check seller reviews.

[ihatethiswebsite]

I buy it and have no issues
