- A first-of-its-kind Indian study looked at 36 popular protein powders used in India and found that 70% had inaccurate information about protein content. 14% also contained harmful fungal aflatoxins and 8% showed traces of pesticide residue. Faye D’Souza speaks to Dr Abby Philips aka The Liver Doc who led the study.

Adding one more best whey ~ muscleblaze 100% whey protein
Thank you very much
Without naming the brand names, how can the people understand what is good and what is bad?
Research about the brand on google before buying one
@@ruchirshrikhande5584 then what's the point of this video
@@stgodless Exactly whats mentioned in the thumbnail. "Are protein powders safe" and not "Which protein brands are safe". Yes I agree some of the reliable brands should have been mentioned but they cant call out the bad ones because of legal notices
@@ruchirshrikhande5584 same thing. if you can't name at least the good brands that are established and above reproach your journalism is shite. there's a good percentage of fake products in almost any popular product: whey is not an exception. this piece would have been more helpful if it provided actual facts instead of scare tactics
They have the link in description of the Research
Unfortunately we have no Govt agency to look at the products FSSAI is just joke
But this is quite devastating at multiple levels! Because people choose plant protein because they are lactose and dairy free and many many people are Lactose intolerant, and their priority would obviously be the plant proteins which have been blatantly advertised as the healthiest, vegan, green, blah blah option! And it turns out that it is harming the people more than the lactose intolerance itself! This is literally like giving poison to the people! And most importantly, BJP definitely has their hands into this being the central government bodies which approve such companies which manufacture sub-standard and adulterated supplements as well as medicines! This is impossible that they aren't regulated, they are being sold with GST and taxes and with the FSSAI approved certificates which is yet again approved by the Government! And this has amplified thousand times after BJP has come into power, and obviously we know now that for electoral bonds and money they have approved many shell companies as well as counterfeit food producing companies. This is literally devastating and much like poisoning the people!
This is a very informative video.
Unfortunately, we are living in 'Chanda do, dhanda lo' times, and it has become difficult to trust brands.

Thank you for this. I have been looking for such a study made specifically for Indian brands and glad to see someone has finally covered a robust and emerging concern.
Absolutely brilliant conversation!!!! I have been screaming these facts for a long time but all of them fall on deaf ears. Now there is a video I can show and shut the naysayers. People just want to live in a bubble!!!
There is a CZcams channel who does blind tests on protein powders. @ trustified. The guy seems to be genuine and method reasonable
What’s the best way to access the research? How might we support/donate to the researchers?
Where can I see the results? Complete list of all 36 brands
There should be a thorough study on every processed food items available in the market for the human consumption not only protein… government should take this initiative and look forward for misleading labelling.
I have found wellness stores keep so many unhealthy consumables which are way more harmful for the human body.
For example, they sell 100% sugar based lollypops etc…
Certainly sir!....I recently got my acl surgery and doctor recommended me to take protein powder as I was vegetarian he wrote it down and I got it from the hospital dispensary,when I checked the label and ingredients it had malt dextride and wrote contains natural sweetener I mean wtf you should be brief about mentioning the sugars u have used they could be carcinogenic may be..this issue need to be addressed!
@@shauryarajput3073 absolutely... This is happening in the Indian market.
Where can one see the full report? Is it public information?
I had already gone through report by Doctor, good to have such video too.
Someone pls tell me is optimum nutrition whey good to consume or not??🥺🥺🥺
Major issue with these powders is that its not clinically tested. Same for International brands. It will be great if the same study is done for International brands which is available Online. This will make the study complete.
Regarding the subject of "termuric" being toxic to the liver, What exactly is the science behind this finding? Can you please refer some study material please? As an Indian, termuric is a staple, daily consumption in my diet, such as its use in daal (pulse) dishes, and in almost every item of veg and non veg, curries. So, am I basically, dosing my self towards liver failure in the long run?
we only add a pinch in our foods. but if you take in excess it can cause damage
The amount of turmeric which we consumer normally, while cooking, is perfectly safe. But if you take high concentrations in large quantities its not safe. All plants have developed a defense mechanism to protect itself against microbes. These are natural chemicals that the plants have developed through evolution. Spices are especially those plants which have a higher concentration of these chemicals. So consuming them in small quantities will provide anti microbial benefits for you. But large quantities of the same chemical which kills the microbe, will start harming your body.
I have read through the complete article from which what i have found is that one science whey protein has the least amount of heavy metal and other harmfull substance,, but contains less protein per 100gm than what they claimed? Similarly is it safe of other brands like muzle blaze which has cadmium in it and gold whe protein which has pb in lower levels written. Please reply dr aby philip or faza

The reason I choose protein based on review by Trustified ...
If you follow trustfied then you should not believe this study as according to trustfied if a protein is deviating within 10% of what is claimed then it’s accurate but they have labelled them also as not accurate. The doctor doesn’t seem to understand the concept of Margin or error
Yes . His method seems reasonable and genuine.
The brand are listed in links of the study if you take the time to look.
Which brand is good for kids protein supplements
Where can i find List of those brands
So which paper carries this list of safe protein
If we don’t get names it’s useless
The link of the research paper is given in the video description. There you will details of all brands included in the study and a detailed breakdown of each one.
If you don't use your brain, ear and eyes. You can uninstall youtube and gift phone to someone who uses those organs
What's the best way for an ordinary person to distinguish between what's safe and what isn't? Avoidance seems like the most prudent solution.
Use google. Check if brand has any certificates to stand by their authenticity, research about the ingredients used by them
1. Home cooked meals 2. Balanced diet 3. Avoid excess of anything 4. Take medicines only when doctors recommend (dont self medicate, even with ayurvedic meds).
So which one should we use !?

Awesome conversation! I'd love to know Docs thoughts about various Fish oil supplements available in the market. Whose it for? What about the people who regularly consume fish through their diets?
I am using Forever Arctic C fish oil since 12 years. Great benefits. It’s available in their Indian store too give a try. You will love it.
Does anyone has the name of those brands ?
What is doctor's take on spirulina
Here is the list of companies mentioned in the journal:
1. Himalayan Organics
2. Nutrela®
3. Quista Pro Himalaya®
4. Elements®
5. Herbalife®
6. Oziva®
7. Dr Vaidya’s®
8. Muscletech®
These are the companies referred to in the context of manufacturing and selling protein and dietary supplements analyzed in the study.
@@jagadishs3931 It's in the description
Thanks a lot!
What about ASITIS
So these are safe or unsafe😮
There are many more companies in the study and there's a chart of products with labeled protein and actually protein % in the form of an image file.
How is naturaltein protein powder? Has the Liver Doc checked any of there plant or whey based protein powders.
very good
what about Muscle Tech Whey protein ? is it safe ?
Is labdoor a good yardstick for quality ?
What are the names of these brands?
It's in the links within the paper, below the chart
Kuch list nahi he ussme😬
How to read it?,there are just name of the chemicals and numbers@@dorfusfrakeldoodle
The research paper does highlight the brands
@@karishmatanzil7241 There is a link below that which opens the names of products
What all brands come under this? Could publish a list of brands that have mis labelled protein content
Please ask about Nveda Brand which is sold online
How to access the paper??
What about As-it-is ATOM Whey Protein ? It wasn't tested.... Is it safe to consume ?
Bro did u got any answer?
is optimum nutrition gold standard save which whey protein is safe
because Alone Ashwagandha is not recommended , If you look in the ayurvedic texts its always mixed with other herbs in designated amount and for particular days. Ayurveda Text also says Single drug consumption in wrong dosage have its catastrophic effect. The companies are spoiling the herbal drugs , they are drugs not the toffies which can be consumed on daily basis.
From where we can get those research reports
news
Does you guys did amino spiking profile of those protein powders
No
can you disclose the brand which are safe?
My friend always look for brands which has less additions in ingredients and no added things ,for eg-protein concentrate,whey,sucralose or other sweetener while looking for sweetner always make sure they are not carcinogenic and make sure the brand you choose has been tested by various testing sites like testify ,labdoor etc.
Where can one find the full list of brands and findings?

When do you go live?
I had Herbalife powder for weight reduction and it worked, but i developed a gland in my elbow. it was a reasonably big blob. i stopped that immediately and it went away in about 3 years. not everything is fine with Herbalife also.
Sorry to mention Sir but my mother also brought these herbal life powders as I had some knowledge about protein powders after checking the content and ingredients of herballife I was shocked to see so many unnecessary additions like soys which is not got if taken on regular basis as it increases estrogen levels which is a female hormone and many more unnecessary things were added to the protein powder just to make it taste better,I mean when u look for protein powder always look for one which has the lesser ingredients and addition to it!
@@shauryarajput3073 Thanks. We are living in hard times, it's always advisable to check, recheck and research before consuming anything.
My sister also developed skin issues after taking Herbalife & it took 3 years to get rid of it.
I don’t see the names of the protein brand companies anywhere in the study. I sure would like to know
Thanks
Bro list got means send bro
Thank you so much!
Can someone highlight the benefits or disadvantages of taking spirulina?
Which one is safe?
Which brands were tested? That information is nowhere in the report
mam spirulina is safe or not
What are the names of 36
Thanks for sharing this critical piece of information. Could you name some of the substandard supplement brands. Your research would not be able to help us in the current form unless you warn us about the mislabeled brands.
Ok which company protein powder is making as sick?
Big muscle always no. 1 for bad quality

Don't use it. They add multivitamin and other rubbish ingredients.

Please tell about Oziva Plant Protein?
We need to know which brands are unsafe
According to Dr. Abby Philips' research on 36 popular protein supplement brands in India, the key findings regarding the best protein powders were:
One Science Nutrition was found to be the "best" whey protein brand based on the analysis
3
.
The protein supplement by Nutrabox was determined to be the "best medium range" whey protein powder
2
.
Origin made the "best vegan" protein powder according to the study results
2
3
.
So in summary, the top brands in each category per Dr. Philips' research were:
Best overall whey protein: One Science Nutrition
Best mid-range whey protein: Nutrabox
Best plant-based/vegan protein: Origin
You Didnt name specific brands in the paper.
Look for supplementary attachment
I am using Muscle Blaze 90% isolated protein any issues you found in that please give info ...?
bro muscleblaze is very good this research is baseless watch all about nutrition channel you will understand
Yes found arsenic in it
Then, how it's showing in labels internationally cerfied and Clinically Tested?
Printing
I would like to see Dr. Robert Svoboda and Dr. Abby Philips debate.
whoa.... same thought here....😁
Lmao why would a certified hepatologist debate a ayurveda doctor? Doctors are not meant to debate each other on CZcams. Their "debate" should be through research
To view this video I had to search to on Google first. This video isn't showing in her CZcams channel list.
Why they did not share which products are safe ?
Read the research,link is given in description
@@daddy9132 which products contains harmful chemicals are not mentioned in it. Or did I miss it?
@@susmitbanerjee6092 products having harmful chemicals and at which level are given in pdf with accurate protein quantity and what product claimed.other than that i have no knowledge,i prefer chicken and eggs to fullfill my protein needs
I am just in shock. I dont take any suppliment i.e neither dairy nor plant based but worried about other ppl who might be consuming those.
Well i think i followed drinking water only when body asks for ..now I have kidney stones, and i am asked to drink a lot of water :(
Very informative and eye opening! We live in a world that is becoming highly adulterated!
Some "ayurvedic"," herbal", supplements (eg. Grapeseed extract) has become main stream medical prescription, since the early 2000's. Does this mean that some of the prescribed supplements/medicines by mainstream medicine have actually tested (as in clinical trials) the products that have been prescribed???
I need this study
How is GNC and Myprotein?
You are a nutritionist . You need to read a detailed report.
I hate this that I can't find the list . What's the point of this study if we can't get this list

Is asitis and atom safe or not
Same question bro?
Government funds and people's attention is distracted to alternate medicine and that affects the quality of the modern medicine itself! Scary but true
Great discussion ...

What about as it is ?
Great discussion.
This is one of the best evidence based talks I have seen on Indian TV.
While there might not be stats on the efficiency of ayurvedic medicines, there is family history of individuals being cured for different diseases. Some of them were cured for wheezing, some for sinus and many such concerns. Now are these cures subject to other side effects from these medicines? Or are they genuine full coverage cures? It's confusing, because if something worked for many people, how can that not be considered as "no evidence" on effeciency?
Medical evidence requires a double blind lab study that ensures comparability. Further who is monitoring the companies making ayurvedic medicines, to ensure correct labelling, a list of full components..
Where is the list of 36 companies
Talking this much they should show 36 companies simple to understand Which to use
@@sharathkumar4345if they do it they'll get a notice to take down the video
Even the research on ayurvedic supplements can be incorrect..
tuemeric really is bad for lever?? can he explain this more please ?? ?
turmeric/curcumin is very very high in oxalates = gallstones
It's can create liver serocisis
Question to doc, Can we take curcumin supplements?
Google his name with the keyword curcumin.
Can be very dangerous.
