On this product only a nitrogen analysis has been done to get an idea of the possible protein content. A protein content of 67.6% has been measured, on the label is stated 67%. But added amino acids are indicated on the label, and this gives a fictitious image of the protein content. We have found a site where a review on this product is. Also in this trial it has been confirmed that MusclePharm uses amino spiking.
