I was just checking out the Universal Nutrition website and came across this link: http://www.universalnutrition.com/news/index.cfm

Is this true? I used to use some of their products back in the 90s. Can anyone confirm?

If it's posted there, it's true..And on the SportPharma site, it says they will be reborn in early 2008....Pretty cool...way to save the oldschool....

Quote: Universal will uphold the brand's original identity as a leader in innovative and proven but value-driven sports nutrition formulations. To that end, Universal will re-launch former products with established histories, such as the fat burner Thermadrene and whey protein product Just Whey, as well as brand new ones such as Beta Alanine and Multi-V.


So is this the Beta-Alanine product that so many here have been pushing for? Stay tooned!

I remember back in the 90s buying Thermadrene, BCAA's, and a few other supps from 'em. They were a big brand back in the day. Can't wait to see what Universal's got planned for them.

I liked their products a lot back when I first got into training. SP has always had solid and effective formulas at a good price. I used their MRP all the time back in the day. Great pickup by The U... They have the clout and momentum to restore SportPharma to the glory days of yore. Looking forward to seeing what new products they bring to the market. Peace, G

I remember seeing those old labels. Back in the 90s, wasn't Just Whey, Thermadrene and Vanadyl pH their big products?

I dunno, but I don't see why we couldn't in the "Supplements 101" section. Maybe J-Dawg can clarify here...
