Whey protein is a pure, natural, high quality protein from cow's milk. It is a rich source of the essential amino acids needed on a daily basis by the body. In its purest form, as whey protein isolate, it contains little to no fat, lactose or cholesterol. Whey, a nutritional by-product of cheese-making, is used as an ingredient in many food products, including dairy, meats, bakery goods, snack foods and many sports and energy drinks. Whey is composed of protein, lactose, minerals, vitamins and some milkfat. Whey protein is a naturally complete protein, meaning that it contains all of the essential amino acids required in the daily diet. It has the ideal combination of amino acids to help improve body composition and enhance athletic performance. |
Whey protein is a soluble, easy to digest protein and is efficiently absorbed into the body. It is often referred to as a "fast" protein for its ability to quickly provide nourishment to muscles.
Whey protein contains bioactive components that help stimulate the release of two appetite-suppressing hormones: cholecystokinin and glucagon-like peptide-1. In support of this, a new study found that whey protein had a greater impact on satiety than casein, the other protein in milk. Adding whey protein to a mid-day snack or beverage provides healthy energy and may help control food intake at the next meal.
Complete Whey Protein is special ultrafiltered, ion-exchanged, partially pre-digested whey, with high levels of branched chain amino acids. Complete Whey Protein is manufactured with low heat processing to preserve nutrient potency and utilizes a new solubility technology (InstaPro Instantizing Process) to mix instantly with just a few stirs. No blender required.
