Whey Protein Concentrate
Whey is one among the two other proteins found in milk; the other one is casein. A liquid by-product that separates from milk during the processing of cheese from cow’s milk (20% whey protein and 80% casein protein). And, whey protein supplements generally fall into 3 categories: Whey Protein Concentrate powder, Whey Protein Isolate powder and Whey Protein Hydrolysate or blends powder.
- Whey protein concentrate typically contains 75% pure protein by weight and has a higher fat and lactose content than whey protein isolate. At least 50% Whey Protein Isolate of grade 90% is found in Whey Depot Protein.
- Whey protein isolate is processed to remove fat and lactose, delivering an outstanding 90% + pure protein by weight and literally zero carbs, lactose and fat. And, 35% of best Whey Protein Concentrate powder of 80% grade is contained in Whey Depot Protein.
- Whey Protein Hydrolysate also known as hydrolyzed whey consist of long protein chains are broken down into shorter chains called peptides and has been pre-digested so that it can be easily absorbed by the body and may reduce the potential for allergic reactions. Whey Depot protein also contains 15% Whey Protein Hydrolysate 80% grade.
Protein known as building block of life and among many other, whey protein is the most searched protein across the globe. It is a complete protein, have a complete range of essential amino acids (EAAs).
Hence whey protein is the first preference for bodybuilders, fitness models and athletes and helps them to promote muscle/strength by:
- Building Blocks: The adequate amount of protein and amino acids present in whey depot protein, which serve as building blocks for increased muscle growth.
- Hormones: The release of anabolic hormones increases that can stimulate muscle growth, such as insulin.
- Leucine: It’s a good source of amino acid leucine, which is known to stimulate muscle protein synthesis at the molecular and genetic level.
- Fast Absorption: It is absorbed and utilized very quickly compared to other types of protein.
