Well, check this table out. I think this pretty much settles the whey vs. soy debate. I’ve always known that whey protein is the best form of protein available to us. I’ll also be posting a large comparison chart in a few weeks which will show whey protein vs pretty much every protein source there is! Keep an eye out for that one.

Soy Vs. Whey Protein Protein Type
Criteria Soy Protein Whey Protein Better Protein
Biological Value (BV) 74 104 Whey Protein
Net Protein Utilization (NPU) 61 92 Whey Protein
Protein Efficiency Ration (PER) 2.2 3.2 Whey Protein
Amino Acid Score (AAS) 0.99 1.14 Whey Protein
Protein Digestibility Corrected Amino Acid Score (PDCAAS) 1.00 1.00 Push
Protein Digestibility Percentage (PD%) 95% 99% Whey Protein
Glutamine per 100g of Protein 10.5g 4.9g Soy Protein
mg EAA per g of Protein 378mg 480mg Whey Protein
Arginine per 100g of Protein 7.6g 2.9g Soy Protein

As you can see whey protein wins on almost every count. The most important points you need to note from that table are biological value (BV) and amino acid score. These are the 2 most important factors that makes whey protein the ultimate product for lean muscle growth.

Today I came across a new product from Optimum Nutrition called Any Whey. Any Whey is literally flavorless, and you can add it to practically any food!

I can’t believe someone hasn’t done this before! I love cooking, and it’s going to be awesome (when it arrives) to add some extra top quality protein to my foods. Some of the foods you could possible add Any Whey to are:

  1. Cookies
  2. Cakes
  3. Muffins
  4. Breakfast cereal
  5. Shakes and smoothies
  6. Omelets

I must say, I’m a little skeptical about just how flavorless this protein is going to be, but from reports from other who’ve tried it, it sounds promising!

So if you want to add extra protein to foods and drinks, give it a shot. Post some of your recipes or food ideas in the comments below.
