By admin | October 11, 2011

Whey protein shakes are very much consumed by the sportsperson to gain energy and stamina and to deliver a great performance. Whey protein is considered the best among the sports supplements available.

But why whey protein is considered so? What is it actually? Let us see:

Whey protein is a by-product of cheese-making process and contains leucine, a branch amino acid. Branch amino acids are known for helping in the building of lean muscle tissue and in the rapid process of building muscles. The two types of whey protein are whey protein concentrate and whey protein isolate. Both of them come from the pasteurization process and there is a thin line of difference between the two. While whey protein concentrate contains lactose and the goodness of cow’s milk, whey protein isolate is devoid of that.
