HOW IS ANTLER FARMS NEW ZEALAND WHEY PROTEIN ISOLATE PROCESSED?
Our whey protein isolate is cold processed using a technologically advanced ion exchange and ultra-filtration technique without the use of heat, chemicals or acid.
Our process isolates and purifies protein subfractions and peptides while preserving the biological nature of the protein. It increases the protein concentration to 93% and removes almost all lactose and fat.
Most commercial whey protein powders are heat-treated, bleached, acid-flushed, and thus, become stripped of its biological activity. Methods that use heat or acid can cause denaturation – a process in which protein loses its molecular structure. Denaturation destroys the protein’s biological nature, degrades the protein quality, and reduces the protein content.
Antler Farms New Zealand Whey Protein Isolate retains its protein's biological nature (undenatured protein). Additionally, Antler Farms New Zealand Whey Protein Isolate is screened for biological impurities such as E.coli, yeast, mold and salmonella, and tested for allergens such as gluten and soy.
HOW MUCH PROTEIN DO I NEED?
Protein is a "macronutrient," meaning that the body needs relatively large amounts of it to function properly. When we eat protein, our bodies digest protein by breaking it into simpler amino acid components and then reassemble them into our body, a process called protein synthesis.
For active individuals, many factors need to be considered to determine the optimal amount of protein one should consume, including: protein quality, energy intake, carbohydrate intake, mode and intensity of exercise, and the timing of the protein intake.
The Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition makes the following recommendations for daily protein intake:
Endurance athletes: 0.45 to 0.73 grams of protein per pound of body weight per day.
Intermittent sports athletes: 0.64 to 0.77 grams of protein per pound of body weight per day.
Strength athletes: 0.64 to 0.91 grams of protein per pound of body weight per day.
WHY USE WHEY PROTEIN ISOLATE?
Whey protein isolate is one of the most popular nutrition supplements. It has the highest biological value of any protein source and is rapidly absorbed. It also contains the highest percentage of essential amino acids.
In hospital studies, whey outperformed all other protein sources, including eggs, meats, fish, soy, nut, pea, rice, and other plant proteins, in producing lean mass in athletes.
In its original form, whey is a mixture of water, protein, fat, carbohydrates and lactose. It is processed to remove excess fat, lactose and carbohydrates to create whey protein concentrate, which is approximately 80 protein. Further steps are required to remove more fat, lactose and carbohydrates to create our pure whey protein isolate, which is 93% protein.
Antler Farms New Zealand Whey Protein Isolate an effective supplement for people who want to increase their protein intake with a high quality, highly bioavailable source without ingesting additional fat, lactose and carbohydrates.
