WHEY / PLANT PROTEIN

Whey protein is a high-quality, complete protein from milk, separated as a liquid byproduct during cheese making, known for fast absorption and rich amino acid profile, popular for muscle building and recovery.

What Whey Protein Is

A complete protein, meaning it contains all nine essential amino acids.

Derived from the watery part (whey) that separates from milk curds during cheese production.

Processed into a powder, it's rapidly digested and popular for muscle repair, growth, and athletic performance. 

Types of Whey Protein

Whey Protein Concentrate (WPC):

Less processed, retaining some fat and lactose.

Protein content varies (around 30-90%), depending on concentration.

Often the most flavorful and cost-effective.

Whey Protein Isolate (WPI):

Further processed to remove most fat and lactose.

High protein content (at least 90%).

Good for those with lactose intolerance.

Whey Protein Hydrolysate (WPH):

"Pre-digested" through hydrolysis, breaking down proteins for quicker absorption.

Ideal for rapid post-workout recovery as it requires less digestion.
