Protein Supplement Guide

This is a pretty common question when people are shopping for protein supplements. The answer is simple…

Whey protein isolate is a much more pure form of whey protein. When I say pure, I mean it contains more protein and less fats and lactose.

Whey protein isolate typically is about 90-98% protein, whereas whey protein concentrate is about 75-80%. Whey protein blends are also very common in the market. They are usually about 50/50 isolate and concentrate. This often brings the price right down.

What type of protein you choose depends on your goals and budget. For slimming down, whey protein isolate would be recommended. For building muscle mass, you could choose any form of protein becuase it’s the total amount of protein you’re getting that counts.
