Is my optimum nutrition whey genuine?

[Anonymous]

Hello, I live in Europe, Balkans and bought this protein whey. Here are pictures of my whey, is it genuine or not?

I found three suspicious things.
1. ON Whey has 24 grams of proteins per serving, but check your label, it says 25.2g despite it is written 24g in the front.
2. It has a seal. As far as I know, ON doesn't give a seal inside the box anymore. Just a white thingy inside the cap. But I may be wrong on this one.
3. The colour of the scoop must be golden and opaque. Yours look transparent. Check out mine, is it same as yours?

The good thing is, the packaging looks perfect and the font are as same as the genuine product.

Things to keep in mind :-
1. Never buy it from gym owners.
2. Never buy it from websites/stores that sell it for unbelievable price.
3. Compare the products. Their packaging, font, nutritional value and spelling mistakes.
4. Scan the bar code.
5. Scoop colour must be golden.
6. Always buy it from authentic websites and stores :-

Thank you so much for taking your time to answer this! I don't know what to do buddy... I am scared of drinking it if it is fake, maybe it has testosterone and other cheap stuff that will damage my kindey, liver and dick (steroid...)

My pleasure, fella :)

Seal should be under the lid. I don't think there is THAT much to worry about this one as there're chances that they still sell whey with seal like that. They still seal other products like that like creatine etc. Label should be correct tho. But the most suspicious thing was the colour of the scoop. Apart from that, the packaging is perfect (if there is no spelling mistake)

Have you ever purchased this before? If yes, then you can probably tell it by the taste and effects. You should try it a few times. A few dosage won't do anything bad to your body.
How much did it cost?

[Asker]

This is the first time I buy supplements budy... so I can't tell from the taste if it is the same or not as before. Converted to $ from my currency I bought this about 73$.

[YourFutureEx]

Price is okay I guess. Does the colour of the scoop look like mine? It is possible that the camera changed the colour of the image based on the lightening condition.

[Asker]

No scoop is transparent white...

You have to take an expert's advice regarding this then. It's 1 AM here so, I can't do much research. Remind me tomorrow. I will see what I can do to verify its authenticity :)

[Asker]

Thank you so much! Here again scoop picture too mediafire dotcom /view/4644b8bt6bbvxym/20161005_212511. jpg

Even the shape is different. Does this written inside or somewhere else?

There is no writing, 0 writing all around the scoop... I understand that I live in Europe and the scoop may be different, but having no writing I think it is clear sign of being fake... Also today used one scoop of this and I got 2 pimples and felt bloating full stomach for 3 hours

Keep yourself hydrated.
Even tho I have an oily skin which is prone to acne and pimples, I never got pimples because of it even though I don't drink adequate water.
Bloating is a bit common for lactose intolerant people. If you are not lactose intolerant, you shouldn't feel bloated.

[Asker]

I will drink again second scoop after 6 hours and I will update how I feel after 10 hours. I will try and split this scoop half before workout and half after maybe it gets digested better. If I feel weird again I will dump this fake shit

[YourFutureEx]

This!

Next time, try to find a better supplier.

[Asker]

Still had a rush after drinking half of this. No pimple because I drinked half before then after 2hours I took the other half. I wasn't so full this time, but I had rush I mean like pimple feeling again to itch but no pimple.

[YourFutureEx]

What do you exactly mean by rush?

[Asker]

I mean a feeling in which you have itching and want to touch yourself. I had a pimple on chest and one on leg.

[YourFutureEx]

Stop taking it. It has testosterone booster.

[Asker]

Thank you so much for your time. Yup, you are right I should stop taking it immediately. The second time that I split it in pre and post workout I got itching again but no pimple came out because the dose was small maybe but I had rush/itching feeling on leg and arm again. Just no pimple managed to get out. These guys should be punished for selling poison

[YourFutureEx]

That's true :/
Change the seller. Do a little bit research. Ask some (trusted) people from where you could get a genuine product.

Welcome :) Take care!
