That's fine, call me devils advocate and forgive me is this has been covered but no one seems to want to be educated on the actual testing process, so how about more info on the tests conducted and their accuracy. What, where how is the testing done exactly and what is the margin allowances. Just because it stamped with a gov stamp means buckles really, especially when the company paying the bill is the one who has the most to gain.
I'm all up for quality control but I know from experience in having steel tested that you can send samples to 5 different labs to conduct the same test and the results will all vary, there is also a range of different methods for testing and with each method the results vary, so whats the legible factors the results can alter in these test.
For example Protein Powder normally has storage "keep safe' instructions / requirements on the label, how does this change the tested sample result, who can confirm the management and age of the sample prior to testing.
Was the original raw powder also tested before the mixing process, was this with in spec's range, how was this treated before mixing was the mixing done on a day that could upset the protein content, who knows really. One could go on for days on the "what about xyz" and questionable factors.
I'm sure there is much appreciation for the "good will", but lets not loose sight of your intention$ and the fact is what your doing can cause a lot of harm especially when there are multiple unknown factors that raise questions to any testing method be it protein or any thing.
Bulk Powders also sells raw unflavored protein cheaper than the mixes so why would they have the need to be unreliable with there mixes, I trust a company of their nature and if I want a more pure protein ill harden up and drink the raw stuff.
Question everything when it comes to politics, i say!....
