I have been trying this new brand called Gr8 whey protein. Im not sure though if it is a good brand. Have you guys tried it? It gives me 15gm of protein per serving. What other brands do you suggest?

Gr8? lol...I'm sorry but I just have to laugh at that. I've never heard about this brand.

The 15 grms per serving is kind of low to start off. Minimum per serving I would look for is 25grms and that is minimum. Carbs and fat should be as low as possible.
I use a brand that has 31 grms of protien per serving, and scoop weight is 35grms which gives an 89% protien.
If you bought it from a reputible pro shop, they should take it back and you should choose another with better numbers.
Hope this helps.

Carivan - a lot of that depends on the serving size. Some brands use smaller scoops than others.

jeffhofer - can you post more of the nutritional info and the first 5 or so ingredients?
