Build Protein Powder Ingredients
Whey Protein Isolate (25g protein per serving)
Whey protein isolate is a high quality form of whey protein powder that has been filtered to remove fat and lactose. This makes it very high in protein and low in calories. It also has the added benefit of being very low in lactose, so that even people who are lactose-intolerant can use it.
Besides supporting muscle growth, whey protein has many health benefits, including:
- Reduces inflammation [1]
- Improves cholesterol levels [2]
- Supports immune function [3]
- Promotes weight loss and satiety [4]
Of course, whey protein is a fantastic tool to support muscle growth and repair:
- The high leucine content in whey protein enhances the body's ability to synthesize new muscle proteins after exercise. [5]
- Whey protein helps slow down age-related muscle loss. [6]
- Whey protein boosts muscle recovery and protein synthesis. [7]
- Whey protein has been shown to support increases in lean body mass and strength. [8]
