Whole Natural Foods or Supplements?

I am not one to promote supplement companies or many supplements for that matter. To be honest there have been so many supplement companies out there who have falsified product ingredients, claims and even added illegal pharmaceuticals all at our expense. For example a while back I was taking a thermogenic product from ALR Industries where they were investigated by FDA and DEA where found to contain illegal "pharmaceuticals" upon investigation added into the product. For more information on the product recall check out the following article: http://www.aboutlawsuits.com/venom-hyperdrive-recall-undeclared-drug-2546/ Additionally after taking supplement after supplement that claimed to enhance fat loss, muscle growth and even energy I realized quickly I was truly dumping my money right down the drain as it did absolutely nothing to enhance or help me reach my optimal physique!

This is why I have chosen to eat whole natural foods in my diet, but do occasionally enjoy protein waffles. I once used a product that made really great protein waffles, but when you looked at the nutrition value it actually had saturated fat, lots of sodium and too many calories for a scoop of protein powder. I mean it's supposed to be good for you not junk food! Sadly I gave up my protein waffle obsession, but until recently when my brother introduced me to a product that has no saturated fat, very minimal sodium, no sugar and also low in calories for a protein powder so I had to give it a try. To my surprise they came out perfect and taste even better than the one's I had grown to love so much. My thoughts are it's OK to add in occasionally, but not make your entire meal plan based on processed foods like supplements. If you enjoy breakfast food like waffles and drink protein shakes, then combine the two and give these protein waffles a try!
