LA Muscle Get Sticky Friday 29th September 2000
LA Muscle are offering free LA Muscle car stickers to "LA club" members. In order to receive one, assuming you are an LA Club member, you must send details of your e-mail and postal addresses. LA Muscle have also updated their website with an article called "How not to get confused by the adverts in the magazines". The article does raise some interesting points. Our advice, here at Sports-Supplements is as follows: If it sounds too good to be true, then it probably is!

Casein versus Whey Monday 24th September 2000
Maximuscle have released the latest edition of their Muscular Performance magazine. In it they have an interesting two page article concerning the Casein versus Whey Debate. It states:

"offending companies are using the marketing from the Boirie study about casein having slow digestion to push their milk powder derived Micelluar casein."

This article, perhaps by coincidence, follows hot on the heels of Chemical Nutrition's recent advert opposingly promoting Micelluar Casein over Whey, which can be viewed here.

Goodbye Nutravida? Thursday 21st September 2000
In an update to the Nutravida story published a few weeks agos, it seems that Nutravida have been unsuccessful in locating the neccessary funding to allow their business to continue.

News of the imminent closure closely follows the recent wind-down of ClickMango who too were unable to locate the neccessary investment to continue. We wish all involved, at both Click Mango and Nutravida, the very best for the future.
