Hydrolyzed whey protein isolate
The fastest whey in the west!
Have you ever seen someone downing a mixing cup full of raw eggs and milk to get their protein fix? We've all seen it and it's truly not a pretty sight! Protein has come a long way since those days and this evolution continues apace. Even our old standby, whey protein, has been given a modern facelift to make it more effective than ever before. This new treatment has led us to hydrolyzed whey protein - a special form of protein that has been broken down into smaller components for faster and easier use in the body compared to whole proteins.
By breaking the proteins down into small pieces, also known as peptides (strands of two or more amino acids), the body can quickly digest and use the muscle-building amino acids when your muscles need them most - such as after a workout. Hydrolyzed whey protein can help bodybuilders, those looking to lose fat and even extreme athletes get the protein they need to build mountains of new muscle mass! Whether you're an extreme strength athlete, someone who loves to mountain bike or someone who wants to build and maintain lean muscle, hydrolyzed whey protein is the perfect way to support muscle recovery after an intense training session. Remember this: even though we all know how important protein is, even hydrolyzed whey protein won't make you lean and defined without hard work and dedication. (Hey, we never said it was easy!)
Recent research suggests that hydrolyzed whey protein can
- Can give muscle repair a kickstart.
- Provides a highly bioavailable, easily digestible protein source.
- Provides important muscle-building amino acids including the BCAAs leucine, isoleucine and valine.
How much should I take? Are there any side effects?
Extreme athletes often consume 25 to 50 grams of whey protein once or twice a day. Bodybuilders who are looking to make serious gains (and burn a serious amount of calories) typically consume 2 to 3.5 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight per day.
