Protein is made up of amino acids. Amino acids are the building blocks of your muscles and body. Your stomach begins to digest the proteins with hydrochloric acid that breaks them down into simpler forms (Di and Tri-Peptides) making them easier to be absorbed. When proteins get absorbed into the bloodstream, they are sent to various parts of your body to perform various functions, including repairing and building muscle tissues, supporting your immune system, and transporting oxygen in your red blood cells.*

Having a sufficient amount of protein will put you in a positive Nitrogen balance, or an anabolic state. Being in an anabolic state will allow you to build muscle, burn body fat and stay energized.* On the contrast, if you have a negative Nitrogen balance because of inadequate or inconsistent protein intake you risk being in a catabolic state (muscle breakdown).

Consuming protein each meal throughout the day will ensure you have an adequate supply of amino acids without consuming a surplus of calories.

Protein needs differ from person to person. Individuals that exercise need more daily protein intake than those that do not exercise. The intensity of the exercise also dictates how much protein one needs to build lean muscle.

Whey isolates contain the higher percentage of pure protein and can be pure enough to be virtually lactose free, carbohydrate free, fat free, and cholesterol free.

Whey Protein Isolates are made via two main methods. Ion exchange and membrane filtration. Ion exchangers extract native whey protein from the whey stream according to the surface charge characteristics of the molecule. This method uses mild pH adjustments and the changes in protein conformation within this range are reversible and are not considered to denatured the protein.

Membrane filtration, typically a combination of microfiltration and ultrafiltration, uses molecular size as the basis for separating components from the whey stream. In the process, pressure is applied across a membrane surface which forces smaller molecules through the membrane while larger molecules are retained. Both methods yield a very high protein to non-protein product ratio.

Our Isolate utilizes Micro and Ultra Filtered whey protein isolate to provide a high quality protein that is lactose free, very low fat and low sodium. It is the perfect protein source to speed recovery after an intense training/exercise session.
