There's no doubt that this is the standard by which all other whey proteins are measured.

- Whey Protein Microfractions from Whey Protein Isolates & Ultra-Filtered Whey Protein Concentrate
- Over 4 Grams of Glutamine & Glutaminc Acid in Each Serving

- The "Gold Standard" for Protein Quality
What Is Whey Protein Powder?
Whey is the collection of globular proteins isolated from whey, a by-product of cheese manufactured from cow's milk. The protein in cow's milk is 20% whey and 80% casein, whereas the protein in human milk is 60% whey and 40% casein. The protein fraction in whey constitutes approximately 10% of the total dry solids in whey. This protein is typically a mixture of beta-lactoglobulin (~65%), alpha-lactalbumin (~25%), bovine serum albumin (~8%)(see also serum albumin), and immunoglobulins. These are soluble in their native forms, independent of pH.
What Is Isolate Whey Protein Powder?
Whey isolate is a dietary supplement and food ingredient created by separating components from milk. Whey is a by-product of the cheese-making process. 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 isolates are highly bioavailable, are very quickly absorbed into the system, and have a high concentration of BCAAs which are highly concentrated in muscle tissue, and are used to fuel working muscles and stimulate protein synthesis.Whey isolates have had their base component (water) removed and are generally considered almost lactose and cholesterol free — they are at least 90% protein by weight.As a dietary supplement, whey and other protein powders can be reconstituted at the time of usage by the addition of a solvent such as water, juice, milk, or other liquid. As a food ingredient, whey powders are easily mixed or dissolved into a formulated food.
Protein is needed for the manufacture of hormones antibodies, enzymes, and tissues.
- Why should you use whey protein powder? Because you are not receiving your RDA, need a high quality protein source, and for general good health.

I lost 25 lbs. in 2 months, and started seeing muscle tone and definition in my arms, legs, back... At 46 I was looking better than I did at 20! Recently I noticed my body tone and definition had become 'fluffy' again, and I have been wracking my brain for what I had been doing or eating differently.. nothing ... then today, I saw the empty container on the shelf left there to remind me to buy another but my local carrier closed their business and I had forgotten to continue my search UNTIL NOW. It dawned on me this was the difference, the one thing that I had been without. So an online search brought me here where I just purchased my 5 lb. container and don't have to worry about running out because I know where to go. I've tried other products over the years but, seeing no gain stopped using them, this is the first time a product called me back for purchase because it's resul
