As always Reflex Instant Whey is THE protein. I have also been enjoying BSN NO Xplode of late as a creatine product.

im more of an elite whey of phd whey man myself, also prefer sci-mx or usn over reflex, im also enjoying the no-xplode not as a creatine product though! Kre-alkalyn seems to be working pretty well

When tested elite whey had only 63g of protein per 100g and given that it tastes so sweet what do you think the extra weight was?
Sci-mx I don't know that much about but it comes in at nearly 9g of carbs per 100, about double most other brands.
USN whey wasn't to bad at 71g protein per 100g.
What are you using No-xplode for if not a creatine product? Nitric oxide?
I'm pretty sure Bullshit has been called on Kre-alkalyn.
Kre-alkalyn® supplementation has no beneficial effect on creatine-to-creatinine conversion rates.

All American Pharmaceutical and Natural Foods Corp. (Billings, MT, USA) claim that Kre-alkalyn® (KA) a "Buffered" creatine, is 100% stable in stomach acid and does not convert to creatinine. In contrast, they also claim that creatine monohydrate (CM) is highly pH labile with more than 90% of the creatine converting to the degradation product creatinine in stomach acids. To date, no independent or university laboratory has evaluated the stability of KA in stomach acids, assessed its possible conversion to creatinine, or made direct comparisons of acid stability with CM.
This study examined whether KA supplementation reduced the rate of creatine conversion to creatinine, relative to commercially available CM (Creapure™). Creatine products were analyzed by an independent commercial laboratory using testing guidelines recommended by the United States Pharmacopeia (USP). Each product was incubated in 900ml of pH 1 HCL at 37º +/- 1ºC and samples where drawn at 5, 30 and 120 minutes and immediately analyzed by HPLC (UV) for creatine and creatinine.
In contrast to the claims of All American Pharmaceutical and Natural Foods Corp., the rate of creatinine formation from CM was found to be less than 1% of the initial dose, demonstrating that CM is extremely stable under acidic conditions that replicate those of the stomach. This study also showed that KA supplementation actually resulted in 35% greater conversion of creatine to creatinine than CM. In conclusion the conversion of creatine to creatinine is not a limitation in the delivery of creatine from CM and KA is less stable than CM in the acid conditions of the stomach.
Good all in one is PhD Nutrition Synergy Iso7. Worth looking into.
