I noticed a thread earlier about Universal Nutrition purchasing this company and J-Dawg said that we could begin discussing it in this section. I, like many others, would like to know more about it. I figured we could use this thread to talk about the supplements. Any input would be great and could teach us all a lot about these new products. So maybe we could use this thread to talk it over and answer any questions that we can come up with.

Here's what we are looking at for the future fellas:

November 16, 2007 - Universal Nutrition, a leading global sports nutrition and supplement manufacturer headquartered in New Brunswick, New Jersey recently acquired the SportPharma nutrition brand. Founded in 1989, SportPharma has been well known through the years for their quality sports nutrition supplements and protein powders, both domestically and internationally.

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.

SportPharma brand products will also bear new labels. Again, in keeping with the original intent and identity, the new labels will be heavily influenced from the 1990s, though updated for today. The original bold yellow and blue combination will reappear on all the SportPharma labels. Universal will also revive the brand's motto, "Quality You Can Build On". All SportPharma products will be manufactured at Universal's state-of-the-art production facilities.

so i went to my supplement store
to buy some pak and rolled oats
and some lonely big ass bag grabed my attention

it was staring at me with a cute face hahaha

it was a 6lbs bag of the rich chocolate sportpharma whey
price= 29dollars

sounds nice huh?
well each scoop has 27grams of protein, 3grams of carbs, 1gram of fiber, and 1gram of sugar

from my understanding that gram of sugar is comming from sucralose

so i came back home with pak, oats and sportpharma whey

Has there been any update as to when the new Sportpharma line will be released? I'm very curious about this new acquisition of Universal's. As I am new to supplements, being young, I never had the chance of knowing anything about this company. Apparently though, my dad says he remembers using their product.
