Is this whey isolate or concentrate?

It is 100% whey protein isolate, the more filtered form with most lactose and fat removed. That makes it a better fit than concentrate for people who are lactose sensitive.

Does it contain artificial sweeteners?

No. It has no aspartame, sucralose or acesulfame-K, and the only added ingredient is a small amount of sunflower lecithin.

How does it compare with flavored whey isolates?

You give up convenience and taste but gain versatility: it adds protein without changing the flavor of smoothies, coffee or baked goods. Flavored isolates usually cost less per serving but bring sweeteners and flavoring.

Is it tested for banned substances?

Yes. It carries Informed Sport certification and is steroid tested, which matters for competitive athletes subject to drug testing.

How many servings are in a container?

About 19 servings of one level scoop each. Heavy daily users will go through a container quickly.

Add one level scoop to 8 oz of cold water, milk or juice and stir or blend. It is a food supplement, not a weight-loss product.
