Product Information

After a workout, they are ready to consume protein to begin the process of muscle growth and repair. Protein is the key nutrient for muscles to support increased growth and strength. Whey protein is favoured due to its nature as a fast-digesting protein, allowing it to reach muscles when they need it after exercise. Note that this is extraordinarily low not just in carbs and fat but also sodium and cholesterol, which is actually somewhat unusual for a whey isolate as they often wind up a little high in sodium relative to less processed wheys. The most widely available option is whey protein concentrate. This is the type of whey found in the majority of nearly all whey protein supplements. When you see a good value protein powder it is usually always whey concentrate. For most users, this is a great choice, especially when just starting out or looking to build muscle. Optimum Nutrition 100% Isolate comes in a limited amount of flavours. This is common for full whey isolate products as they tend to not be as popular compared with a lower cost whey protein supplement. The flavours include strawberry, vanilla and chocolate.

The theory used to be that your muscles' ability to absorb nutrients is at its strongest in the hour immediately after your gym session. But, according to our expert, there's no magic window, and consuming protein at any point after a workout will be helpful. This protein powder contains a blend of mostly whey isolate with some whey concentrate. This allows it to achieve many of the benefits of both. Each serving contains a huge 24g of protein which is superior compared to most other protein shakes available today. There is also a relatively low 1.2g of sugars and 1.6g of carbs. One of the key differences between a whey concentrate and isolate is that the protein yield is higher in and isolate due to the processes used to prepare it. A typical whey concentrate will be made up of 80% protein, with the remaining calories from carbs and fat, whereas an isolate has undergone further processing to produce at least 90% yield of ultra-pure protein. For those on a very low carb diet, choosing an isolate can save a few of those precious macros to use elsewhere. In our opinion, this is perfectly fine for the majority of gym-goers and already higher than the nutritional value which can be found in many whey protein supplements. 100% IsolateLike most, we were first introduced to Optimum Nutrition through Gold Standard whey, and now regularly use many of the supplements in the range. The large collection includes casein protein, BCAAS, pre-workout and multi-vitamins. One of the big benefits of Optimum Nutrition is the wide availability of the product range. These increased processes and purity result in a higher cost and many users are not willing to pay a premium. For many, the slight increase in protein is not worth the often substantial price increase with a full whey isolate supplement. Gold Standard If you are just entering into the world of protein supplements, it is wise to start out with an affordable whey concentrate to first see how you like the supplement and how you get on. This means that you can experiment with different flavours and ways of serving up your whey (no pun intended) to find the perfect powder for you.

Whey protein hydrolysate: 'Hydro whey' to some, WPH is designed to break down proteins into a state that makes them easier for your body to absorb. How Much Whey Protein Do I Need? Assuming that you don't mind a couple of grams of carbs and fats in your protein, and you've never had any GI issues with dairy, a huge positive of opting for a concentrate is the fact that they come at a lower cost per serving.
