- Is this a whey isolate or a blend?
- It is a whey protein isolate, the filtered form with most lactose and fat removed. That makes it a fast-digesting option after training rather than a slower blend.
- Is it gluten free?
- Yes, it is labeled gluten free. Check the tub label if you have other allergies, since it is made in a facility that may handle other ingredients.
- How does it compare with a whey concentrate?
- Isolate is more filtered and lower in lactose, so it suits people who feel bloated from concentrate. Concentrate usually mixes creamier and carries more carbs and fat.
- When should I take it?
- Most people use it within an hour after training or as a snack between meals. It also works in smoothies and oatmeal when you need extra protein.
- Does it contain BCAAs?
- Yes, whey isolate naturally contains branched-chain amino acids, including leucine. There are no added aminos beyond what the protein itself provides.
