I wonder how much protein, creatine, EAAs, etc are actually in the powders lining the shelves at Popeyes or Sobeys. Few, if any, have 3rd party testing to verify their composition.

I couldn't get over this

"Symington is one of only five full-time oncologists in Wyoming"

5 oncologists for a state with a half a million people?

Manitoba, with double the population and a doctor shortage, has 60. 18 in Med Onc alone.
