Quality protein and the runs

[fartface]

I have been recently using the more expensive brands of protein(i usually use optimum 100% whey) and notice that I really seem to digest it well. the best thing is no more hershy squirts. so i am thinking that the higher quality protein is really worth the extra cost. If all cheap protein does is run right through me, what good is that??

Having the squirts does not mean that it is going right through you. It means something has irritated your digestive tract. Maybe your body just does not like the optimum. I too have tried the expensive brands, but I keep going back to optimum. I concentrate on large amounts of protein rather than the pricetag on the jug. Most of us are at a level in which the "quality" of the protein in not a factor, just the amount of protein is.
