Naturally flavoured with rich Dutch Cocoa and sweetened with Stevia — no artificial sweeteners, no artificial flavours, no artificial colours. At 75% protein content per scoop, with a dual Whey Concentrate and Whey Isolate blend enhanced with Papain and Protease enzymes for superior absorption. Third-party tested, GMP certified, produced in an FDA registered facility.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Formula\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Science\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhey Protein Concentrate\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhey is the liquid fraction of milk separated during cheese production — a byproduct of one of humanity's oldest food traditions, now recognized as the most bioavailable complete protein source available. Whey Concentrate retains the full spectrum of native whey proteins in their undenatured state — including lactoferrin, beta-lactoglobulin, alpha-lactalbumin, and naturally occurring bioactive proteins — the intact proteins that distinguish cold-processed whey from commodity alternatives. It is the protein that does more than build muscle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhey Protein Isolate\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhey Isolate undergoes additional filtration to remove the majority of fat and lactose, resulting in a higher protein concentration per gram and faster gastric transit. It supports muscle protein synthesis in the post-exercise window — the period of heightened receptivity to nutrition that follows physical training — making it the ideal complement to Concentrate in a dual-source formula.

Valine supports energy metabolism and the preservation of muscle tissue during prolonged physical output.
