As far as I know Biotest is a good company. I remember in the pro-hormone time to purchase Mag10 and some other stuff that worked really good. I would say that overall this is a descent company

I've been doing Champion Nutrition Revenge Pro, Mango flavored. I really like it as a workout/post workout drink. It has a lot of good stuff in it and it's about $24 for 1.75 lbs. Helps tremendously with recovery.
