The three most popular ‘types’ of Protein Powder are Whey, Whey Isolate and Plant Based - to make it simple for you to choose let’s break them down!
Whey Protein
Whey Protein is the most popular choice within the supplement world. It is cost effective, usually contains high amounts of protein and low amounts of fats and carbohydrates. It’s also fast absorbing which essential for optimal muscle recovery and growth.
Whey Protein Isolate
Whey Protein Isolates are perfect for people who are lactose intolerant or are looking for a clean protein. Whey Isolate is processed in a way which removes the lactose, carbohydrates and fats. It is still high in protein and has better absorption rates but it’s more more costly than a standard Whey Protein.
Plant Based
Plant Based protein powder can be made from various plant sources such as pea, pumpkin, and rice, depending on the brand. Plant Based protein is perfect for those who are dairy-free, sensitive to lactose/dairy or vegan.
