Genepro - too good to be true?

I was sleeved on May 23, 2016 and I had a really hard time in the beginning getting my Protein in. I spent tons of money trying new shakes and powders hoping to find one that didn't make me throw up. And thanks to this site, someone mentioned GENEPRO. It claimed that one scoop (1 tablespoon) is equal to 30 grams of protein. I was elated! No more 1/4 cup scoops of nasty powder to get my protein in!

However, I'm a researchy (is that a word?) kind of gal and I decided to read up about it online and there is no hard evidence to back up their claim.

I found a site where the actual developer commented on body building threads about the validity of its product, they also had a lawyer telling random internet people to "cease and desist" slander against their product. What legitimate company responds to negative reviews by having their lawyer telling people to stop or even scours random web forums?

I kept looking online and found a YouTube video where the creator of Genepro talks about his powder.... This video is done in his house, in his kitchen, with low quality equipment. That's odd. He talks about how well his powder dissolves and how it doesn't change the texture of whatever it's mixed with, but if you take 1 tablespoon of any other kind of Protein Powder, it mixes just as well... Hmmm...

So, if his process of making protein molecules smaller to take up less space is actually legit, why don't more people, especially in the body building industry, use it?

I'm skeptical now...

This company was in litigation for its Protein products not delivering protein promised.

google them and search GENEPRO on here.

I agree it tastes great, but when I read up and then looked at their website (which has portion that like their bodybuilding web forum comments) has broken English, strange claims, and things like "natural steroids" I decided my personal choice was to stick to Isopure or unjury.

And, the 30 grams protein from 15 grams of product was another too good to be true.
